Here’s that link to Clemson.

I thought these posts should be incorporated into one post. They kind of go to the heart of what you were saying. Too bad no fundies are up to the task of defending their God from this logical attack of their fallacies here.</strong>
Well this is not a new subject here Hal, and we already know the theists don't have much staying power when it comes to this subject.

I just got this essay published in a local newspaper. <a href="http://www.newsreview.com/issues/reno/authors/davidpayne.asp" target="_blank">My Reno news and review column</a>
It is this thread running here in EoG forum. But it is slightly edited by the editor there. I must admit she improved it with one sentence change, and a different header, “Evolving Past Religion”. This paper allows you to respond to your critics, so I will be able to give the Sec-Web a nice plug in my responses.

By DP: Religious scholars often point to the “free will” argument, to explain away this murderous and barbaric behavior by religious zealots. So lets look at one disturbing example of God’s, not man’s, behavior, the great flood and Noah’s ark. (Geneses 6-9) God drowns everyone but Noah and his family for their “corruption”. OK, what sin and corruption did the babies and little children of these people, or for that matter the animals on this planet, commit? None. I guess they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, right? Is mass murder the only answer an omnipotent God had for this sinful behavior?
I notice that the question of what sins the babies little children and animals of this world committed to deserve to be drowned is never answered here by the theist apologists. Why is that?

Authorized by who? The creation?

A creation that dictates the creator.

Amusing.

Satan Oscillate My Metallic Sonatas
As humans are the creators and God is the creation, this is indeed amusing.

I've just realized what the title of this thread actually is: "Is God the biggest mass murder of all time?"

God is dead! That was a pretty big murder, by a whole mass of people.

The people giveth, and the people taketh away.

hal900069, if you're waiting for Reasonable Doubt to show up and do Xian apologetics for you, I'm pretty sure you're going to be disappointed. I'm almost positive the RD is a nontheist.
