Satan judges God more evil than himself for using a genocidal flood. Is he right?
Even Satan would not go that low.
I am surprised, after some debates on this issue, that so many can justify God using genocide against humans. Some say it is because God created life and can take it with impunity whenever He likes. They do not find it strange that God would create something just to destroy it. Others say that the earth was sick and had to be cleansed. Well, if God the doctor only has death and murder as His cure then He is an inept doctor for sure. Other “valid” justifications have been advanced but to me none have justified God breaking His own laws and killing.
I admit to being to some extent evil but even at my most depraved, I would see that there would be no profit, in moral terms, in using genocide.
I postulate that even Satan, at His worst, would draw a line to such a dastardly act.
God is therefore more evil than Satan.
Jesus may have clinched the truth of this statement because He said that one need only to think of a sin and we are guilty if it.
God then as the creator of all evil must take the label as the greatest sinner of all. He certainly tries for this award because scripture tells us that He has surpassed even Satan in evils perpetrated against man.
He is certainly the highest and lowest God possible.
Why then do we seem to hate Satan and love God. God has shown a much more cruel nature than Satan.
You would think that by the standards of the Bible we would cheer on any supernatural entity that might stop God from such cruelty in the future. I wonder if this is how the Satanic cults started. Perhaps we need more of them to protect us from such a cruel God.
Thank God I do not believe in the flood myth. I do not have to answer my own tough questions.
Regards
DL

evcforum.net is primarily intended for science discussion
My opinion is that, as presented, this topic falls under "wacky theology" that is getting too far outside of this forums intent.

Quite a while back, Minnemooseus started the topic Assuming the flood was real, intended to explore the theological significance (not the physical reality) of "the great flood". I think there was some good discussion there, but (surprise) the topic went way astray and was closed. I don't see reopening it as being a good thing.
Perhaps you'd like to read over that topic and then start a new version of it?
Going to reject this "Proposed New Topic" (PNT). I will leave it open at least for a while, to discuss any related questions you may have about your proposed topic.
