You've never read the Bible, sweetheart.[/quote]

NP. I would never want to. [/quote]

I have and Cain killed his brother, Joseph’s brothers tried to kill him, Abraham raped Hagar.

[/quote]

And all of that is just in the first couple books of the Old Testament! [/quote]

The Old Testament is way more dramatic than the New Testament, IMO. [/quote]

Massacre of the Innocents is murder
Cleansing of the Temple is violent
The crucifixion ... Nailing Jesus to a cross, tying others
Stoning
Revelations? War, murder, the collapse of society

[/quote]

Revelations is pretty crazy, I’ll give you that. It’s just that the Old Testament God is super vengeful.[/quote]

Matthew mark luke and john are 100% about a friend betraying Jesus, he carries his own cross is whipped and  tortured and hanged to die with nails through his hands while his mother cried at his feat.

Come on ... it’s violent.
Also they talk about killing tax men and adulterers.[/quote]

I’m really talking about the difference in how God is depicted in the Old Testament vs the New Testament.[/quote]

True but compared to “the hate u give” more/similar in violence.

Of course God does have his own son murdered even though Jesus goes to a garden and begs his father to find another way.
