My God's Anger


Are you a Christian? Do you seek to convert people with stories of your God's love, saying, "My God loves you SO much He crucified His own Son on the cross for your sins?" Then when people don't want to convert to your God because of His supposed love do you find yourself trying to convert the people you preach to with threats of your God's anger, saying, "The time is short. You only have so long to accept God's love before His wrath comes upon all those who do not believe in and follow Him. Repent NOW! Lest the wrath of my God be upon you!"

I am ashamed to say used to think like this. I was raised to believe in the Bible and everything it has to say, and you know what? I am SO glad I saw the light and dropped the gospel of hate that fills the pages of the Bible. God loves you but hates your sin and will fry you in hell forever unless you believe in Him? Do you people who believe this crap and preach it, do you really look at and think about what you are saying? Do you see the problems with how you are trying to convert people to your bloodthirsty God? 

Since the time I dropped the belief in the Christian God (or any of the gods for that matter) I have had a few individuals try to convert me back to the lunacy of the Bible's gospel. When I refuse I lay out my arguments, and I am often told that the reasons I am giving for not believing are not the truth, and that the REAL reason for my disbelief is my stubborn will to purposely do the opposite of whatever God commands. I am told, "You just do not like being under the directives of the Most High God and are like a disobedient child ignoring their parent. Like a disobedient child and parent end up with the parent disciplining the child, God will discipline you for your going against His word. You will reap His wrath."

What an absurd way to try to convert people to a religious belief. Threats? Are you serious? So, I am supposed to read all of these terrible things in the Bible that recount the horrible things the Christian God has done to people, and all of that terror is supposed to turn me to your twisted God? Are you insane? Yes, I think there is a little insanity involved in this entire, ridiculous religion thing. Why don't we take a peek at some of the folks claiming stupid crap about an ANGRY God about to burst a heart valve in the heat of His anger toward all those who do not want to believe in Him or His twisted religion.

So, your anger runs deep? I don't give a shit. Apparently, you have had a long-standing problem controlling your anger. I very strongly suggest that, since you are supposed to be the ultimate Almighty, that you conjure up some medication or SOMETHING to help you deal with your anger. Being that angry for as long as you have apparently been angry is NOT a healthy thing. You do know that being so angry CAN in fact kill you, correct?

How you can put science and corrupt religion into the same category is beyond me. Science is NOT religion and religion certainly should NEVER be taken as science. So, take your little chalice of wrath and shove it. I don't care how mighty you say you are. I don't care how many people you say you have killed. I don't care how many times in the Bible you say you will break everyone down to their knees so they will bow to you in submission. You are wrong, Mr. God, and while you say this and that is an abomination, the truth is you are the ultimate abomination for no matter how much love you are supposed to encompass you always choose hate. F**k you.

Religion is one big giant lie. Talk about wrath and sin all you want, but the bottom line is all you have is the deluded ravings of a book that is rife with error and loaded with hate. You go right on ahead and burn with all the wrath you want, asshole. You are sick with your anger and the desire to spill it out on anyone who will not do the stupid and hateful things you command. You are sick. The only fearful thing about God's supposed wrath is that this God of the Bible is quick to use His wrath to destroy anything at the drop of a hat. Then, when this same sicko God withholds His supposed wrath His idiot followers label that as love.

Earthquakes and tornadoes and high winds and droughts are part of the functioning health of the weather patterns of this planet and have NOTHING to do with the wrath of any divine being.

That's right. God is terrible. The only thing God fills anyone with on a consistent basis is fear.

Know Who the real God is and how the real God feels? God is frustrated and weary of mere mortal men and women? You do realize this is a problem with your ridiculous claim that your God is perfect, right? Is this what you have to preach in order to get people to believe your bullshit? Is that it? So many people walk right past your God to something else so you find it necessary to preach doom and gloom and hate and fear? I do not want your pathetic God or His pathetic message or His pathetic anger or His deluded book of misdeeds.

Nice. These people are really beyond fucked in the head. My goodness, look at what they are doing to their children. So SO sad. And making it worse these people use the law to back up the ridiculousness of their hate. People should just stop paying these idiots any mind at all. Don't give them money, no talk shows, no attention, no commercials...nothing.

Oh yeah...God is perfect. So, He was perfect when He told the children of Israel to completely obliterate an entire town and rip open the bellies of the pregnant women? What about when He allowed Lot to sleep and impregnate BOTH of his daughters? When He totally destroyed Job's life and the people in his life? Wait...when He let 9/11 happen, right? That was His so-called perfect judgment, right? Buddy, you need to try a lot harder to sell that bullshit.

This is hilarious. This is why God hates abortion? Hum. So, again explain to me why God told his soldiers in the Old Testament to destroy an entire town and rip open the bellies of the pregnant women if this very same God hates abortion? How does this work? Since it was God ordering the abortion it isn't abortion? Oh, wait. I get it. Because it wasn't the mother herself trying to remove the baby from her body it is not considered to be abortion. Whatever.

The Christian God is no different than any other God in the history of religion and in the history of all the things that people have ever worshiped. He is every bit as mean, jealous, stingy, angry, cruel, murderous, aggressive, backstabbing, hateful, spiteful, wicked...

The Wrath of Which God?

Read Ester Lighthorse's newest book today!
http://www.amazon.com/Turkey-Broth-Spirit-Questions-Pentateuch-ebook/dp/B00GVLQ0CY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1386004442&sr=8-1&keywords=ester+lighthorse


When bad things happen, whose God gets the credit for having dished out divine wrath?

Ahh, the psychos of 9/11 were agents of God's wrath. Gotcha.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ3IPK_0j_Y

Strike that. Reverse that. 9/11 was the wrath of Allah.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kqpZGBOKZQ

Gays and lesbians caused Hurricane Sandy? I didn't know they held that kind of power.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB0DBwXfYKI

Now hold on a minute. I thought gays and lesbians are to blame for Hurricane Sandy and now you're telling me the grace of God is the cause?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nl91bjAg8Y

Hurricane Sandy was a soldier of Allah? You gotta be kidding me. How many people or deities can be responsible for the same act?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dK7T2ZBsz0

So it is not God or Allah or gays and lesbians who are to blame for the disasters, nope. Who is REALLY to blame? Satan.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j56gEOeL3pM

So the tsunami was of Allah's doing?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7_jwt914Y8

Or was the tsunami the wrath of God upon the heathen masses of America?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6urIlaQMqec

Wait. Wait, wait, wait. You freaking people need to freaking make a final decision on who is responsible for what. Is it God or Allah or Jesus or Satan or the Devil or the gays and lesbians who are to blame for all of the bad things and the natural disasters that happen in the world?

Spoiled Brat of the Divine II

How long did it take for God to lose control of His divine wrath, or to be sadistic and plain mean?

The Book of Exodus

The Book of Exodus is truly horrible. God regularly kills, maims, destroys, or instructs others to do so. He lies, tricks, and purposely MAKES people to do things that are not in their best interest...like when God purposely hardens Pharaoh's heart. God has zero control over His anger or over His apparent desire to do some pretty fucked up shit.

In this post I really did not pick videos that were specific to each verse. I was simply so disgusted with Exodus that I picked videos that discuss God's many shortcomings and ridiculously absurd behavior and instructions. Enjoy these verses from the Book of Exodus that portray God's complete and total unworthiness to be worshiped by anyone.

Exodus 3:20 "So I will stretch out my hand and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders that I will perform among them. After that, he will let you go."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPLr2Byh2wA&list=PLQvzVjHW5eHiCO_rgzbvgbay3odaKCJVK

Exodus 4:21 "When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go."
Exodus 4:23 "...and I told you, Let my son go, so he may worship me. But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCfVd5QvdGY&list=PLQvzVjHW5eHiCO_rgzbvgbay3odaKCJVK

Exodus 4:24 "At a lodging place on the way, the LORD met Moses and was about to kill him."

Exodus 5:22 "Moses returned to the LORD and said, Why, Lord, why have you brought trouble on this people? Is this why you sent me?"
Exodus 9:6, 9 "And the next day the LORD did it: All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one animal belonging to the Israelites died."
     "It will become fine dust over the whole land of Egypt, and festering boils will break out on people and animals throughout the land."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtVdDgmKRHk&list=PLQvzVjHW5eHiCO_rgzbvgbay3odaKCJVK

Exodus 9:19 "Give an order now to bring your livestock and everything you have in the field to a place of shelter, because the hail will fall on every person and animal that has not been brought in and is still out in the field, and they will die.'"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WC-i19cPNYs&list=PLQvzVjHW5eHiCO_rgzbvgbay3odaKCJVK

Exodus 11:10 "Moses and Aaron performed all these wonders before Pharaoh, but the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he would not let the Israelites go out of his country."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=RD02Z1BzP1wr234&NR=1&v=L7jClyinERY&feature=endscreen

Exodus 22:24 "My anger will be aroused, and I will kill you with the sword; your wives will become widows and your children fatherless."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODetOE6cbbc&list=RD02Z1BzP1wr234

Exodus 31:14 "'Observe the Sabbath, because it is holy to you. Anyone who desecrates it is to be put to death; those who do any work on that day must be cut off from their people."

The Spoiled Brat of the Divine

How long did it take for God to lose control of His divine wrath, or to just be sadistic and plain mean?

The Book of Genesis

God is perfect. God is just. God is loving. God is merciful. God is...well, according to the Bible God is a lot of things. Be that as it may the Bible presents verse after verse that serves as evidence that God is anything BUT perfect, just, loving, merciful, or any other good character trait. 

Nope. No no no. God is most certainly nothing like what His flock of sheep think He is.

I started this post with the goal in mind that I would list all of the verses I could find in the Bible that made reference to God's ridiculous, temper tantrum, foot-stomping, two-ear-old, pouting little boy behavior. There were too many verses to put into one posting and so I decided to go book by book and list them.

Please note that not all of the verses I list will have a corresponding video.

Genesis 3:24 "After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life."
     So, here in this verse we have God displaying the ferocious nature of His sadistic tendencies. I mean, God kicks Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden regardless of the fact that God purposely set Adam and Eve up for failure, God put the bad tree right where His human creations could have easy access and God neglected to tell Adam and Eve about the freaking serpent. What kind of sicko does that? Frankly, I think that the story of Adam and Eve is a great indicator early on as to the absolute sadistic nature of God.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy8MxM4E2QU


Genesis 4:5 "...but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast."

     Yet another early example of God's twisted behavior, right? Surely Mr. Omnipotent knew that by giving Abel a happy signal for his sacrifice to God and by giving Cain a not-so-happy signal that something not-so-good was bound to occur. Let us assume for a moment that God isn't bloodthirsty and demanding of ritual sacrifice, but would Cain have killed Abel if God had accepted both of their sacrifices instead of just Abel's?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUmHo85M78Y


Genesis 6:3 "Then the LORD said, My Spirit will not contend with humans forever, for they are mortal; their days will be a hundred and twenty years."

     So...just like any good soap opera would spice up the story line in order to get better ratings, here God decides to give all people on planet earth about 120 years to get their affairs in order before He yanks the carpet out from under them. God shows no desire to show people how to live and behave and He sure as shit didn't show any mercy. Nope. What God does is more or less say, "Fuck 'em all."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk1owD9y1hc


Genesis 6:6-7 "The LORD regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. So the LORD said, I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created--and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground--for I regret that I have made them."

     God is so upset that His intelligent creation is not pliant and obedient that He decides the best course of action is to kill everything. What a fuck-up.

Genesis 6:13,17 "So God said to Noah, "I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth." 

     "I am going to bring flood waters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_BzWUuZN5w

Genesis 7:21 "Every living thing that moved on land perished--birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind."


Genesis 7:23 "Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark."


Genesis 9:5-6 "And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being."

     "Whoever sheds human blood, by humans shall their blood be shed; for in the image of God has God made mankind."
     What kind of divine sicko insists on making the animals pay for blood spilled? How in the fuckey-doo are animals supposed to account for themselves? Explain that stupid shit. Is God so eager to see something suffer?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDxTaMVct9c

Genesis 11:6-9 "The LORD said, "If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them."

     "Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other."
     "So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city."
     "That is why it was called Babel --because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth."
     And so many Christians pray every day, every damn day that God would allow people to actually get along with each other. Huh. Seems to me that it was God and His sadistic desire to stir the pot that broke people up to begin with. Seriously. Look up the story of the Tower of Babel in the Bible and you will see it was GOD who interfered negatively when He saw that people were working together. Man was NOT fighting. Man was working together. 
     Apparently, God was so put out that man was actually getting along just fine without God that God decided to fuck everything up. Read the story. What does it say? It says that God makes the comment that with men working together NOTHING will be IMPOSSIBLE. So what does God do to rectify the situation? Why He makes all that was possible when men worked together IMPOSSIBLE by rendering the people incapable of working together. Fuck you, God. Fuck you.

Genesis 12:17 "But the LORD inflicted serious diseases on Pharaoh and his household because of Abram's wife Sarai."

     Sooo...never mind that it was not Pharaoh's fault that he did not know Sarai was Abraham's wife (good 'ole Abe told Pharaoh she was his sister), but God decides to punish Pharaoh for Abraham's lie. So goddamn ridiculous. God is a total affront to what justice is by nature.

Genesis 19:13, 26 "...because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it."

     "But Lot's wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt."
     Alrighty then. Never mind that Lot offered his daughters to a crowd outside his door; since God did not intervene He implied His consent of Lot's fucked up offer. Here God decides He is so pissed off He is going to snuff out a couple of cities with fire from heaven. He tells Lot and Lot's wife and daughters to NOT look back as the cities are being destroyed. Lot's wife's curiosity gets the better of her and she takes a peek, instantly turning into a pillar of salt. Lovely. Maybe it is not so much that Lot's wife disobeyed an order to NOT look so much as it is God did not want any witnesses to His dastardly deed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM193ztoCrg

Genesis 20:18 "...for the LORD had kept all the women in Abimelek's household from conceiving because of Abraham's wife Sarah."

     So, once again we have a fine example of God placing punishment on someone when they had nothing to do with what they are being punished for in the first fuckin' place.

Genesis 22:2, 9, 12 "Then God said, Take your son, your only son, whom you love--Isaac--and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you."


     "When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood."
     ""Do not lay a hand on the boy, he said. Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son."
     Here is one of the most popular stories in Christianity that always bothered me, right? I mean, Mr. Omnipotent should have known the quality of Abraham's faith without instructing Abe to pull an Andrea Yates.

Genesis 29:31 "When the LORD saw that Leah was not loved, he enabled her to conceive, but Rachel remained childless."
     Well, what have we here but God pitting one woman against another...for no fucking reason at all. I think God simply loves to see people suffer physically, mentally and spiritually. And the issue here is not just Rachel being barren by divine decision, but read the verse again and you will see that Leah was not loved. Of course, with God being love and all you would think He would do the righteous and compassionate thing and allow Leah one of the most important and basic requirements for a happy and satisfying life. But nnnoooooo...because why? Because God was apparently having too much of a good time watching Leah pop out kid after kid, each time hoping that she would have finally done enough to earn the love she so desperately craved. 

Genesis 30:2 "Jacob became angry with her and said, Am I in the place of God, who has kept you from having children?"
     Ahhh. The widely practiced and highly acclaimed, Oliver North-style, divine edition game of Pass the Buck. Why the fuck is Jacob angry with Rachel when he himself stated it was God pinching off Rachel's Fallopian tubes? Is Jacob so afraid of God and of confronting God about the bullshit treatment towards Rachel that he turns on Rachel? The sociopath implications here as to The Almighty's behavior is actually quite frightening and completely and totally devoid of any caring and nurturing. 

Genesis 32:25 "When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob's hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man."
     Here we have straightforward evidence that God fights dirty...just like many spoiled brat bullies in the world we know. 

Genesis 38:7, 10 "But Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the LORD's sight; so the LORD put him to death."
     "What he did was wicked in the LORD's sight; so the LORD put him to death also."
