@kellyjay saidPresumably, by "God", you mean some kind of creator entity.
God is good, righteous, just, holy, all-powerful, all-knowing, timeless without beginning or end, and unchanging.
If so, why are you giving it human attributes?
Perhaps, this creator entity's attributes are the laws of physics and chemistry, and the universe, as we observe it, is the only manifestation of this entity that we currently know.

We were made in His image, thoughts?
@ghost-of-a-duke saidAgreed.
God, as represented in the OT, is clearly none of those things. (Even by His own standards).

@divegeester saidWhen I thumb down you know. Typically when asked for thoughts about a topic, the request is for thoughts about the topic, not the first thing that comes to mind that has nothing to do with the topic.
You asked for “thoughts”, that thought was what sprang to my mind.
PS why thumb down posts replying to your OP?
@ghost-of-a-duke saidThe ten plagues of Egypt are a clear example of your point.

The story was great for Moses, but extremely unjust for the innocent Egyptians who had nothing to do with Moses and Pharaoh.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidI disagree, we see the consequences of sin in the OT and in the NT God’s solution. Same God in the OT hung on the cross in the NT.

@kellyjay saidKellyJay, you would be a terrible juror.

You have no concept of sifting through evidence, and making a logical conclusion.
Do you realize.......God gave you a brain to use?
