    it's funny how the right thinks God gives life until it's a welfare mom with 6 kids, then God had nothing to do with it

    in the same way that god saves one person from a plane crash, but had nothing to do with the deaths of everyone else. and in the same way god finds car keys, but has nothing to do with kids starving to death.

    such a god is the mind vomit of a spoiled 8 year old.

    My God has never claimed to be a God of peace. Jesus Christ told the crowds, "do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword." - Matthew 10:34, NRSV

    Maybe the book never claimed that, but the followers have
