  It is another problem. I did say what God says is for OUR life, for US, not himself.

      The life should be with love not things you said, love of God. I think you have understood religion wrong; you think the religion is like a cruel dictator which punishes you if you do something wrong in its opinion. The religion is “I do this because I love God”. If I do something God told me to do, my life will get better; not only my “life”, even my after life. I think I cannot describe better in comments if a lemmy post. This is something we should talk about in a physical meeting.

        That sounds real great, till you reach the parts where god will viciously punish you, your family and anyone in the vicinity just because you didn’t do what he told you to do.

        If even half the shit in the old testament is true, I would rather have god as an absent father(or ideally nowhere close) then whatever the fuck he was going for.
