Therein lies the problem: You believe in things, you don't understand them or learn about them.

And in that same spirit, how would you characterize the brand of fundamentalism you espouse?

Gee, sounds pretty much like Catholicism and Islam. Sin, punishment created and conceived by God, mercy contingent on one variety or other of teabagging, maybe the odd mercy killing of fags and Hittites thrown in when it's era appropriate.... Don't really see the distinction.

Just like your god, whose followers committed numerous genocides at his command. Remember, Allah's agents are acting on his will, just like the Israelites were.
This will come as news to all the martyrs, reclining in paradise and enjoying their bottomless boxes of Glosettes.
Citation needed.
The Horror!!!!!!
As opposed to, say, accepting the grace offered by the voices in your head?
Have you even read the Bible? He had a bad weekend. Barely. I don't think I've ever met a person who wouldn't give up their life to save even a single child if they knew they got to come back on Tuesday, er, Monday.... wait, Sunday??? Sheeit, that hardly qualifies as dying. More of a blackout kind of thing. Was there any tequila at that Last Happy Hour?
AKA exactly the degree of petulance (he's alleged to be in charge of everything, remember?) you'd expect from the kind of asshole whose response to children who don't follow his will is "kill 'em all". You know, the flood thingy you believe in. I understand that self-awareness is pretty much incompatible with fundamentalism, but really Faith, you have lowered he bar considerably.

Exactly like Allah's judgements of today, and carried out the same way: Through his faithful servants following his will.
Unless God tells us to. Like he told the Israelites back then, and like Allah tells his armies today. Think of it, Faith, it's like we're living in the Holy Land in Holy Times. As Amalekites.
Raisins, Faith, raisins. I see you're not entirely au fait with contemporary Islam.
You know he's dead right? When someone says "the president said...", you'd normally assume they weren't talking about Calvin Coolidge, right? Right? OK, sorry I asked.
Under a pizza joint, amirite? Wow, thanks for the intel! Now the whole pedo thing is starting to really come together... Would this be a bad time to get a little deeper into the Elvis conspiracy thing?
Ooooh, it makes me tingle when the dark shadow where your self-awareness ought to be falls across my screen. You understand that they think you're the one pretending that... oh never mind.
You know, I think a vacancy opened up down at Chick Tract Inc. a while back... Just sayin', in case the pension isn't keeping up, that sort of thing. I mean it's not like they're dropping manna on the lawn any more, right?

You know those "101 Bible Contradictions" sites? You know how you have answers for all the ignorant atheists gloating over them? Guess what.....

What makes you think it's indiscriminate? Are you denying the power of God to direct his servants to the right infidels, or to protect the innocent with his invisible hand? Similar to the laser like precision he used killing "... both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass..."... OK, bad example, but....

Ah, but you are missing the obvious distinction that Faith sees so clearly. When Muslims do bad things, on the other hand, they are acting as Muslims. I'm sure I don't need to explain the difference.

Missed English history, I see. And the whole Plymouth thing? They were Catholics? Who knew!

Why does my mind keep hearing "There is no collusion" when I read this.

She's clearly blue-screened on dissonance.
Maybe it's time for a nap and a reboot. I'm not sure encouraging her to channel Ken Ham is actually going to help much.
