[QUOTE="DwarfJuggler, post: 55497343, member: 267455"] So your parents told you of said rules right? There was no bible, there was no 10 commandments when god did this. So it was his ignorance to not even tell the people what they were doing was wrong. Or was burning them alive and sending them to hell a way for him to tell them? Such a loving act... To equate it with your analogy it'd be like your parents grounding you, and when you ask why, they can makes some b.s. about you doing something you weren't suppose to when you were 8. It'd make no sense then, why does it make sense to you now? And this is just one example, the most common granted, but there are numerous examples of god slaying people for them not doing what he wanted them to. Which again reiterates the idea of God not really giving us free will. God: you can do what ever you want and what ever you feel. But abide by these rules less I kill you outright. Where is the freedom? Would be like your parents saying, sure you can go to the parties but if you talk to anyone, or they talk to you I'm not going to like it and you're grounded. How's that make sense. But again just one example of the numerous killings accounted to God. And I'm sure theres more in exodus, and following books. Just starting exodus now. Slow tiresome read.
