Obviously you're obsessed over a couple of passages in the bible that you neither understand nor have any context for. Ignorance is not a virtue.
And you go right ahead and pass judgment based on your ignorance. Just don't fool yourself that you appear more intelligent than those you feel compelled to ridicule. You don't.
In Context they are pretty horrible. So the "context" argument doesn't hold water.
I could start a hundred threads on various truly horrible stories in the bible that show God in a bad light.
He kills David and Bathsheba's baby to teach David a lesson.
He sends bears out to maul 42 children to death because they made fun of a prophet's bald head.
He kills Uzzah for merel touching the Ark of the Covenant? Why? Uzzah just wanted to keep it from falling off a wagon.
He drowns every baby in the world.
He demands that Jephthah butcher his daughter because he made a foolish oath.
I mean, shit, I could go on all day. I'd rather not, but I could.
But here's teh capper. The Ten Commandments. Right. Ten most important rules.
The first four are about him.
No False Gods
No Graven images
Don't use my name in vain
Keep holy the Sabbath.
I'm God, and I'm insecure.
