I think he's really only interested in more important things like testing whether or not someone would be willing to murder their son for him but only testing of course. Or whether one specific guy was pulling out.

And testing your faith with the bones of fake lizards.

I've never felt more sure about the Christian god being bullshit than now. Why would a loving god even give birth to someone just to have them live their life in a prison, hungry their whole lives? Christianity says the Palestinians are all going to hell, those of age, because they didn't convert to Christianity. Fucking ridiculous. Where the fuck is god? Why does anyone still believe in this nonsense?

Islam gets no pass. I understand Islam less than Christianity but it is objectively false and awful also, based on what I do understand, which is plenty. They subjugate and marginalize women, scorn and hate gays beyond what Christian's do. Islam stabs cartoonists (multiple times) for their "dangerous" drawings, wtf? They fly planes into buildings full of parents. They shoot up music venues (Paris). They murder (mostly liberal, pro Palestinian) Jews in their homes, feeling righteous as they slaughter. Islam is garbage. These religions are all fucking garbage. Why can't we abandon them?

My personal opinion, watching the carnage in Israel and Gaza, and as an American who lived through and past 9/11; Reacting with anger and fear causes terrible decisions that seem better in the moment than they are. There is too much collateral damage. It isn't ok to kill innocents. Blowing up children with bombs isn't any different than killing them any other terrible way. This is not the path to victory in the long term. How can these survivors not loathe Israel forever? What is the end game? Israel has all the power. I hope they ask themselves what they want the future to look like soon because they appear to be insuring a nightmare for some generations currently.

Christians are tell, don't show. If they didn't call it a loving god, maybe there could be some logic to it.

But the very core of Christianity is that God had his son executed, and for what? Nothing was solved, God is still in charge, God makes all the decisions. There would be no threat of Hell without God to send people there, he could just stop. But they say he hasn't, and somehow has any measure of love.
