Could never. God by His very essence Is pure. His will is also completely pure. For God to do something wrong is an imposebility.

His will Is. It operates outside of time but manifests itself in time.

*causes untold suffering to billions over thousands of years

*makes no attempt to ease said suffering, regardless of whether the sufferer is good or bad

god so good :drool:

And yet he kills innocent babies, commands that their heads be dashed against rocks and that his chosen people should rape young virgins.

The God of the bible IS an impossibility. A self-contradicting mess.

it's almost like you have to selectively ignore parts of the bible to maintain this delusion about a merciful or just god

That's the part non-believers struggle with the most... God's judgement. You can see where this is going.

Helpless children are killed every day, and an all-powerful God certainly has the ability to stop it.

Ofc. You can't really help that but to just go ahead with the plan instead of saving them is ridiculous.
I don't see how the Christian community believe in Pro Life. Looks like God believes in Pro Choice.

God has the freedom to create and destroy life. Our whole existence is predicated on His will.

Christian's don't extend God's power to humans.
