I'm wondering, with all the cruelty and violence in the Bible, Quran, and most (if not all) other religious books-- acts that make even Hitler look merciful-- why people still believe they follow a wonderful, loving god. In many chapters of the bible, Jehovah can be found mass murdering, encouraging rape and slavery, and even causing mass genocides. Are people so ignorant that they just think what they hear in church every Sunday is the whole story? Or is his creating of humanity enough to outweigh acts such as the
murder of
every human being alive less one family? I think not, what about you?

Sure, they kill thousands, but in the end they love me and that's what counts
Yes. The events of the Old Testemant can be forgotten, as well as it's teachings of slavery, rape, the stoning of children etc.
No. They're responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths, and condemn everyone who does not follow them to eternal torcher
What gods? You mean the imaginary friend that the wise used for thousands of years to manipulate and control the weak?
