I don't mean to insult anybody's religion or choice of God, but I have often wondered why the biblical God is so fascinated with blood sacrifices and sex,

If you read some accounts of the old testament you would think that the God yahweh, was a "juju" cos of his insistence on animal sacrifices, he even instructs the levites on how to kill the animals and where to sprinkle their blood and how to do all sorts of barbaric ritual rites, the animals used for these sacrifices ranged from the innocent dove to the mighty bull,

the biblical God is painted as a bloodthirsty angry God, who loves killing, he kills for very absurd reasons, in the old testament he could kill your child for laughing at a bald headed man or he could even kill you for trying to prevent the ark of covenant from falling, but the biblical God's fascination with blood, entered the next level when he had to kill his own son to satisfy his blood lust, anytime I think of the biblical God's blood lust, it sends shivers down my spine, there are numerous scriptures in the "holy" bible that buttress my point, but I wouldn't want to go into that,

And the biblical God has this hatred for sex, he wants masturbators to be killed, he hates uncircumsized men, he was happy when david went to kill over two hundred philistines so that he could bring their foreskins to saul as bride price, (very disgusting), and numerous other examples of his fascination with sex, if he hates sex so much, why didn't he create an alternative form of procreation for mankind, there are lots of things to be said but I rest my case for now,

What you got there does not seem to be theological. They are culturally for the jew. Not your problem bro.

FOLYKAZE: What you got there does not seem to be theological. They are culturally for the jew. Not your problem bro.

Seconded.

The OP is the typical green snake under the green grass. He comes with venom under the guise of peace. Why don't ypu make your intentions clear from the beginning. Nobody is going to kill you for attacking christianity(@logicboy & co does it with his every life breath and they are still alive..), rather than coming with pretense of political correctness and false peace-flags like:

yeah, I agree these things are jewish culture, but the modern day christians believe that they are the new covenant jews, and as such these issues also concern them and inadvertently concern those of us who still have christian family and friends, and this blood lust can be seen in the prayers of christians, they are always pleading the blood of jesus on everything, ranging from pleading the blood on their food to pleading the blood on their cars or clothes,

this blood lust is something that should be checkmated before it gets to the next level.

this ploy u are using is an old one, you're trying to kill the reputation of the messenger so that the message would not be regarded as true, but still, you would agree wit me that what I'm saying is true.

Don't you realise that life is in the blood?

The blood of Jesus is life unto every christian.

I know that blood is the life force of humans and most animals, but when u guys talk about blood and flesh all the time, it likens u to the people u guys claim are worshiping idols,

Bro, christians in Africa are slaves. They are lost in this same world. Leave them to suck their imaginary saviour's blood. It will be better we discuss something tangible than this.

And the bible didn't say that blood carries oxygen.

The blood of Jesus is life unto every christian.

How many litres of blood does a grown man has? You people have been drinking blood of Jesus more than a thousand years, how many litres are left?

BLOOD MEANS TO OVERTAKE. LIKE SAY IF I AM A RIGHTEOUS MAN AND I PLOT A COUP AND TAKE OVER A TOWN, AND YET ALL THE INHABITANTS OF THE TOWN ARE WICKED AND HEDONISTIC. MY FIRST CALL OF DUTY WILL TO BE KILL EVERYONE IN THE TOWN. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN ? MEANS I NEED TO BEHEAD EVERYONE IN THE TOWN. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN ? IT MEANS TO TAKE OVER THEIR WAY OF THINKING AND KILL IT AND TURN THEM OVER TO MY RIGHTEOUS WAY OF THINKING. KILL THEIR OLD SELF. SPRINKLE THE BLOOD OF MY WAY OF THINKING ON THEM.

that's genocide bro! Why did the world stood against hitler or hutus against killing tutsis? He is god and he created the so called "unrighteous ones" and since he can do all thing he could have magically turn them and make them righteous instead of killing of them. Besides of all those killed by the loving god cannot all be unrighteous.

Bible god is one heck of a character

Remember...god works in mysterious ways

Rap.e of Female Captives (Deuteronomy 21:10-14 NAB)

"When you go out to war against your enemies and the LORD, your God, delivers them into your hand, so that you take captives, if you see a comely woman among the captives and become so enamored of her that you wish to have her as wife, you may take her home to your house. But before she may live there, she must shave her head and pare her nails and lay aside her captive's garb. After she has mourned her father and mother for a full month, you may have relations with her, and you shall be her husband and she shall be your wife. However, if later on you lose your liking for her, you shall give her her freedom, if she wishes it; but you shall not sell her or enslave her, since she was married to you under compulsion."

Once again The bible 'God' approves of forcible rap.e.


Rap.e and the Spoils of War (Judges 5:30 NAB)

They must be dividing the spoils they took: there must be a damsel or two for each man, Spoils of dyed cloth as Sisera's spoil, an ornate shawl or two for me in the spoil. (Judges 5:30 NAB)


'God' Assists Rap.e and Plunder (Zechariah 14:1-2 NAB)

Lo, a day shall come for the Lord when the spoils shall be divided in your midst. And I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle: the city shall be taken, houses plundered, women ravished; half of the city shall go into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be removed from the city. (Zechariah 14:1-2 NAB)


OBVIOUSLY THE BIBLE 'GOD' [size=15pt]IS NOT[/size] GOD, but rather, a manufactured impostor, or perhaps a Jewish tribal deity elevated to a position ('God') which he does not merit.

No reasonably intelligent person should accept that the Creator of life in this universe actively encouraged abduction, rap.e and murder of women at ANY point in human history.

seriously maNn, the bible's one scary book, it's not something somebody in his/her right mind should read before sleeping, especially the old testament, the bible has more kills than most action movies and books combined. Why would someone call that book holy,

y does d christian God interest u atheists sooooooooooo much?
U ask to mock not to learn.
All d explanation u get will do u no gud except u bcom born again.
Islam,hindu,eck etc gets no attention it seems atheism is not really a rejection of dieties but a rejection , with future intent to discredit, the God of d Bible.
U shd b askg y i need Jesus-Jesus is linked wt those animal sacrifces in d OT wch u cnt understand.
Besides isnt it apparent tht ths verse is true? "ever learng but never able to come to the knowledge of d truth".
Cuz so many atheists here read d bible of a God,they dnt blve in- y go to all the trouble? Beats me - yet u bunch still cant "get" it! ? So u come here wth tonnes of questions and blinders on 4 som poster to enlighten u (or entertain u)

the funny thing is (I'm sure most atheists did the same) when I was gradually delving into freethinking I studied the bible ernestly and with an open mind, I was really hoping to see something intelligent about the biblical God,

but as I delved into reading more scriptures I found the opposite about the biblical God, he is the opposite of intelligence, and I even found more wisdom in the ifa deity than in the jewish God,

These pentecostal Christians have taken ribena from the red and solidly into the black. I bet it sells better than coke now.

The bible was horribly translated to begin with by socalled puritans.

In order to control ppl via missionary work, they did what they could to eradicate paganistic and old ways by scaring the masses into believing that certain views about sex, gender, and roles were wrong and sinful.

Our ancestors were not ashamed of their sexuality and most had multiple partners...but with the emergence of middle eastern religions, mixed with puritan european values things changed.

Thats why the bible is full of contradictions. It tells the story about pagans but from the perspective of so called puritans (imperialistic cultists) .

What a mess!
