I believe this is what he is talking about. Remember this is the god that is the same yesterday, today and forever. Killing babies that never did anything to anyone. Amazing.

Exodus 4:23
So I said to you, ‘Let My son go that he may serve Me’; but you have refused to let him go. Behold, I will kill your son, your firstborn.”’

Exodus 11:5
and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of the Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the millstones; all the firstborn of the cattle as well

Exodus 12:12
For I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am the Lord.

Numbers 33:4
For I will go through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am the Lord.
Lets not forget all the children that he murdered in the great flood. Why didn't Noah build a bigger ark for all of them?

chapter 1 of chris hedges american fascists book. chris hedges graduated harvard divinity school


The four Gospels, we understood, were filled with factual contradictions, two Gospels saying Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, while Luke asserted that John was already in prison. Mark and John give little importance to the birth of Jesus, while Matthew and Luke give differing accounts. There are three separate and different versions of the 10 Commandments (Exodus 20, Exodus 34, and Deuteronomy 5). As for the question of God's true nature, there are many substantive contradictions. Is God a loving or a vengeful God? In some sections of the Bible, vicious acts of vengeance, including the genocidal extermination of opposing tribes and nations, appear to be blessed by God. God turns on the Egyptians and transforms the Nile into blood so the Egyptians will suffer from thirst - and then sends swarms of locusts and flies to torture them, along with hail, fire and thunder from the heavens to destroy all plants and trees. To liberate the children of Israel, God orders the firstborn in every Egyptian household killed so all will know "that the Lord makes a distinction between the Egyptians and Israel" (Exodus 11:7). The killing does not cease until "there was not a house where one was not dead" (Exodus 12:30). Amid the carnage God orders Moses to loot all the clothing, jewelry, gold and silver from the Egyptian homes (Exodus 12:35-36). God looks at the devastation and says, "I have made sport of the Egyptians" (Exodus 10:2). While the Exodus story fueled the hopes and dreams of oppressed Jews, and later African Americans in the bondage of slavery, it also has been used to foster religious chauvinism.

A literal reading of the Bible means reinstitution of slavery coupled with the understanding that the slavemaster has the right to beat his slave without mercy since "the slave is his money" (Exodus 21:21). Children who strike or curse a parent are to be executed (Exodus 21:15, 17). Those who pay homage to another god "shall be utterly destroyed" (Exodus 22:20). Menstruating women are to be considered unclean, and all they touch while menstruating becomes unclean (Leviticus 15:19-32). The blind, the lame, those with mutilated faces, those who are hunchbacks or dwarfs and those with itching diseases or scabs or crushed testicles cannot become priests (Leviticus 21:17-21). Blasphemers shall be executed (Leviticus 24:16). And "if the spirit of jealousy" comes upon a man, the high priest can order the jealous man's wife to drink the "water of bitterness." If she dies, it is proof of her guilt; if she survives, of her innocence (Numbers 5:11-31). Women, throughout the Bible, are subservient to men, often without legal rights, and men are free to sell their daughters into sexual bondage (Exodus 21:7-11).

Hatred of Jews and other non-Christians pervades the Gospel of John (3:18-20). Jews, he wrote, are children of the devil, the father of lies (John 8:39-44). Jesus calls on his followers to love their enemies and to pray for their persecutors (Matthew 5:44), a radical concept in the days of the Roman Empire. He says we must never demean or insult our enemies. But then we read of Jesus calling his enemies "a brood of vipers" (Matthew 12:34).
I said that the Bible has a lot of violence but Christianity does not. You take an author who is praised by the NYT (who completely denied the holocaust and was full of NAZI sympathizers) and makes EXTREME jumps in interpretation to slam the Bible. You go straight to the books of the law and begin attacking violence in the OLD TESTIMENT which were written for a society 5000 years ago and recorded and saved so that we could see just how lost they were on there own. Nobody and I mean nobody can read the book of John and find what you’re saying about hatred of the Jews and Jesus “callings his enemies a brood of vipers”…….read the chapter. Matthew 12.

You are dead set on being anti christ but have probably never actually taken the time to read more than a verse or two completely out of context. God is love. The day that the church of “I hate god” is healing marriages(like mine), breaking drug addictions, ministering in prisons, feeding the hungry, shoeing children, giving backpacks to students, going into war zones to help refugees and sick people, giving people hope, peace, and generally turning people’s lives around then I will be in that pew right next to you but unfortunately so much effort is wasted in trying to convince people that God does not exist that nothing helpful or real gets accomplished. Do you feel that you wind up convincing anyone at all who is not otherwise already convinced of your beliefs? No you are converting and convincing no one.

Old Testament was written for Christians but was written to Jews.

New Testament is almost entirely non violent.

You know with all the noises in this video. You can hear the helicopter the ambulances the traffic, but no airplane noise?
