Read your bible, especially the Old Testament which is the basis for the three major ME religions.

Firstly the Great Flood because he didn't like the way things were. Not only did he kill all the sinners, but also the babies, children and animals. WTF did the animals do to upset him?

Then there were the plagues in Egypt. No problem with those killing people and when they didn't work he decided to kill all the first born.

Then Sodom and Gomorrah. He didn't like the way they were living so again he killed them all, babies, children and animals.

Then the poor Canaanites who were doing nothing wrong, just living in the wrong place at the wrong time. He told the Israelites to kill them and babies, children and animals.

And so it goes on and on.

Muslims he told to kill all the non believers.

Catholics and Protestants he told to burn each other at the stake. Queen Elizabeth was just as handy with a torch as her half sister Queen Mary.

It seems God is evil personified or the people claiming to speak for him are. Christians, Jews and Muslims.

Some do some good and so they should. They have a lot to make up for. Even recently, the Jews are grabbing land not there's, Muslims are killing and the Popes should be tried for covering up child molestation.

I'm an atheist and on my way to heaven. Unless that evil bastard God really does make the rules.
