Where was God during the holocaust?

True, but humans do pass on their imperfections, do they not?

That was god's choice, and he now wants perfection from humans? You have not been reading correctly, I have already shown this was not God's choice.
You,

When you bring up the subject of religion in general, keep in mind you are waving a straw man. I do not intend to defend the clergy who have misled people for centuries. BTW, I don't hope or expect to go to heaven. Man's future is clearly on earth.

How can it be a straw man when god expects humans to follow his teachings? God started with the apostles, and that was followed by the clergy. If you know the history of mankind, most were unable to read or write, and it was the clergy who had to "teach" their flock. Are you expecting me to defend the clergy? Obviously you don't seem to care about what I have to say.

You,

Another straw man. Don't ask me to explain Dubya.

How can it be a straw man when the president of our country is guilty of mass killings of humans - estimated at tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis.

So, your response for all god's mysteries are "it's a straw man?" LOL Dubya may be a mystery. But not God's mystery/ Its a mystery to my why you cannot see that. Good grief! It's not God's fault that wars exist.

If you fault God for suffering, who do you credit for the good life you have led?

I'm responsible for what I have done with my life. How can you credit god with your accomplishments or failings when god has never answered any of your prayers. It's been researched by several universities that prayer does not work.

How did god help you?

DEU 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

Mass Killings Ordered, Committed, Or Approved By God


The entire population of the earth at the time of Noah, except for eight survivors, in a flood. "And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark." Gen. 7:23

Every inhabitant of Sodom and Gomorrah, and of the surrounding plain, by "brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven." Gen. 19:24 Lot's family fled.

All the first-born of every family in Egypt, including children of those in the dungeons and the successor to the throne of Egypt's Pharaoh, by God on the first Passover night. Ex. 12:29

All the hosts of Pharaoh, including the captains of 600 chariots, who drown in the Red Sea while pursuing the Israelites. ". . . and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea." Ex. 14:27,28

Victims who perish in the conquest of seven nations in Canaan by the Jews under God's guidance so that the Jews can occupy their lands as God had promised Abraham. "When the Lord thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou; And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them." Deut. 7:1,2

Amalek and his people, by the edge of the sword. "Because the Lord hath sworn that the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation." As long as Aaron helped Moses to hold up his hands, the Israelites prevailed. Ex. 17:11,16 At times of crisis, the Lord often waxed whimsical.

3,000 Israelites, massacred by their Levite tribe at the command of the Lord for worshipping the golden calf. "Take every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor." Ex. 32:27 These were the orders of a God who would brook no disloyalty, a self-styled "jealous" God.

But your true god allows killing of men, women and children. That's in the bible.

Tell us about a) the world flood, b) the virgin birth, and c) the creation of this planet?

Here's a contradiction of what you said about the sins of Adam and Eve and the dented pan.

Here's more. Blah, Blah Blather

"Oh neonlogist's God!! " ( Can't say omg, aint got one).... Neonlogist God, sure has a funny way of showing his "love" for mankind ( looks like womankind are excluded )

. . . Your god killed all innocent men, women and children by his flood, and saved only a few on Noah's ark. That's called "mass killing" by your god. It was judgement day by your god to kill every innocent child who has never sinned.

I've often wondered how Noah and his bretheren were able to collect two of each animal, insect, and dinosaurs from around the planet, when they didn't even know there are five continents in this world. Did they crawl all over forests, antarctica and the landscapes to collect them? How long did that take them? It's logistically impossible for the few to have accomplished such a task.

According to the bible, the earth is only 7000 years old. We know from scientific evidence that this planet is over 4.5 billion years old. A huge difference, and a mistake by your god on simple science. For a omnipotent know-it-all, he sure was stupid!

God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, but it's okay to own slaves and women are second class citizens in the human race. Yup, a loving god all right!

That's only the beginning, and I can provide more contradictions about your god if you're up to it! LOL

Who would want to worship such a crazied, hateful, ignorant, killer, god? No me!

You really need to do your homework.

. . . Oh, BTW, there never was a world flood. There's no scientific evidence for it. . .

This is exactly what I am talking about. If there never was a world flood, how can you blame God for the killing of "innocents"?

◄ Genesis 9:11 ►

"I establish my covenant with you: Never again will all life be destroyed by the waters of a flood; never again will there be a flood to destroy the earth."

I still think "Alice in wonderland " is the true bible -- It's full of logic and no innocents get killed there and kids love all the true stories in it.... just like neologist loves his God in wonderland book.

Your "explanations" doesn't explain the contradiction of your god.

He commands "thou shalt not kill," but he kills the population of the whole planet by a flood. That's wholesale killing of thousands, if not millions, of innocent men, women and children who have never heard of your god.

There's no justice or common sense in killing the whole population of animals and humans of this planet. NONE;

that's if he knew satan was responsible. He should have killed satan.

. . .
Your bible claims humanity started with Adam and Eve. Science have proved that humanity originated from Africa.

That's a CONTRADICTION.

It's like imposing the death penalty for murder. Kill somebody in order to teach people that killing is wrong.

Are we talking about the unequal application of the death penalty in the US justice system?
