Does your God kill men?

A naturalist is someone who believes all things are a product of nature and natural forces, as opposed to supernatural ones.

In my view, deism is an nearly equally valid conclusion to my own.

I read only this post. My response is to the original post.
People with political agendas have from the beginning hijacked religion to accomplish less than honorable goals. Crusades are the first example, Jihad being the latest. That, is not the fault of God. God's goal for man never was to commit atrocities to one another.
God, after making the covenant with Adam to have the freedom of choice does not intervene in the events of man, lest he break his word. Which he does not do.
Your question is a legitimate one. Your snide final remarks do nothing but expose your unsupportable agenda.

Is that the same covenant that says --my way or roast forever in hell.

Nice freedom that eh.

I don't have one. An heathen unbeliever..

You must not have been reading your bible:




This is what the Lord of hosts has to say: 'I will punish what Amalek did to Israel when he barred his way as he was coming up from Egypt. Go, now, attack Amalek, and deal with him and all that he has under the ban. Do not spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and asses.' (1 Samuel 15:2-3 NAB)


When the people heard the sound of the horns, they shouted as loud as they could. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho collapsed, and the Israelites charged straight into the city from every side and captured it. They completely destroyed everything in it ? men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep, donkeys ? everything. (Joshua 6:20-21 NLT)


This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Strap on your swords! Go back and forth from one end of the camp to the other, killing even your brothers, friends, and neighbors." The Levites obeyed Moses, and about three thousand people died that day. Then Moses told the Levites, "Today you have been ordained for the service of the LORD, for you obeyed him even though it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Because of this, he will now give you a great blessing." (Exodus 32:26-29 NLT)

Yep, seems we agree on the major points of belief :patriot:

Yet God commits atrocities against us. Nosh's flood being his best work.

Oh, wait, that was not an atrocity it was justice. Not
