I can't. I just can't.



This is... I have no words for how disgusting this girl is. Serious, or troll, it is COMPLETELY UNCALLED FOR.

Didn't God also say that he wouldn't make those kind of disasters again? I seem to recall a story in which God personally creates a huge disaster and then afterward ends up saying "Hm, maybe I should seek anger management..." and promises never to personally cause them again.

Of course, there's a lot of loopholes later, with devastating blessed items and cataclysmic irony to those who don't listen to the prophets. I'm pretty sure he never really started the whole 'angry god' business ever again though.

Yes, that was in the Noah story back in Genesis...specifically, "I won't destroy the world this way again. I made this double rainbow all across the sky to prove it!"

And yes, most of the following 'angry god' stuff in the Old Testament is not so much God having beef with humanity in general, as it is God having beef specifically with Israel, since He made a pact with them early on in their history (hence the whole Ark of the Covenant.) If you look at most of the stories there, it is really not God going "I find you all unworthy and smite you all!" to humanity, as it is "Hey, you promised me you'd do this for me and you're not holding up your end of the deal!" to Israel.
