This God guy sounds like a real asshole.
Thanks for your useful contribution. A lot of people sound that way till we get to know them better. And perhaps you’re getting to know God through someone else’s interpretation.
So how would you portray God? Do you take issue with other people’s interpretations?
Yes, but do I hate them for it? I know you do.
I only hate them for it when their interpretation promotes hate.
I’m sure you can at least agree with Jesus when he said, “Love thine enemies.” You don’t have to hate them just because you disagree with them. You don’t have to hate them, even when they hate you, or hate gays, or anyone else who doesn’t deserve their hate.
