How many has God killed?

[Gary DeVaney]

I have not deleted three quarters of my murder list, I was simply highlighting some of the more absurd examples of God killing people for stupid reasons. As for the killing of the 42 children for making fun of a prophet - I don't care how you justify it as being not innocent, those children only needed a lesson in manners, they did not deserve to be ripped apart by bears. As a prophet, Elisha should have held himself to a higher standard, and not have gotten so angry over something as superficial as being teased about his bald head. He should have pointed to his head and laughed with the children saying something like "you are right, my head is baldy, I didn't know until now, hahahahahaha, and then given them some candy to make them happy, and then talking to them wisely & peacefully about the importance of good manners". But no, instead he had 42 innocent children killed violently using bears. Talk about a massive ego! It is even ludicrous to defend such atrocious behavior.

This argument is just academic anyway, you can't possibly believe that this story actually happened. Only a psychotic maniac would execute 42 children for making fun of his balding head. Can you imagine hearing on the news that the Pope had 42 children killed because they made fun of his balding head? There would be world-wide outrage, and he would be tried and sentenced as a mass murderer, and all those grieving parents would never forgive him for killing their children for such a stupid reason.

Think about it, this is so petty to attribute to God. The Bible is asking to believe that the same God that created the universe with all those galaxies and endless stars, and created us and our sustaining planet Earth, is the same God that commanded 2 bears to kill 42 children because one of his prophets got his ego bruised and cursed them all?

Wake up Sajih!
