Basically, now that I have grown up – I wouldn’t date a man like God/Jesus. I would kick his sorry, abusive, narcissistic ass to the curb and tell him that any self-respecting woman won’t tolerate a man who tells her he loves her, but if she ever so much as looks at another man, or leaves him that he will kill her and then torture her for an eternity. That’s not love; it’s a serious mental illness.

Brighid, never thought of it like that but it is so true! Thanks for the analogy.

Susan,

You are welcome Unfortunately, I know way TOO many men like that! The kinds that believe women are worthless, except for cooking food, sex and spawning their offspring. The kind that have no compunction against abusing you in every way imaginable, the kind that demands your loyalty and worship and will “punish” you for being anything less then demure, submissive, and a complete slave to the “rightful” head of the household, and the type who will kill you for leaving, and the abuse you suffer for challenging the authority of the man … hell is the price. Sorry, but now that I don’t EVER have to tolerate that in a mortal man why the f*ck would I worship an allegedly immortal being who happens to be the Sky Daddy role model for all the abusive, murderous bastards that ever lived? Why – because He says He loves me? Well, sorry but if that is love then He can keep it. I would rather burn in hell forever then worship a sadistic, abusive God and believe the funky smoke theists attempt to blow up my ass. IF there is a God, one that resembles the “good” qualities of the Christian deity He/She/It/They should have the intelligence enough to understand my position and reward me for it. IF not … well my soul (if there are souls) will be in good company.

It isn't what it claims to be.

I have no need of that hypothesis.

Brighid,

I've often echoed 'god is made in the image of man' (I forget who said it originally) but you've brought it to life for me.

For me its because of all the suffering ordered by god in the o.t. and the choice god gives us (love me or I'll hurt you),oh and the whole proof of god's existance thing.
What's yours?</strong>
No god has been proven to exist.

Actually, 1+1+1=1
