Well, you accused snuffleupagus of being brainless. Your idiocy about "love and mercy" was either to compound THAT insult...or it was in reference to his post (that you were responding to) about God's tacit approval of rape, infanticide, and genocide. It is unclear what you meant now that you have decided to stagger around the entire pasture--but you can take your pick--Ha! Ha!

My comment that God has no right to "judge a loving or merciful response" was logical and appropriate. A God who advocates all forms of cruelty and evil certainly does not have the moral authority to judge what might be a response of love or mercy. Indeed, it is unknown whether such a God even has the capacity for a loving and merciful response. Nothing funny or weird about that. It is simple logic. Granted, it might be beyond the capacity of a dolt, but that is of no concern to me.

In any event, love and mercy are human qualities. It is unfortunate that we have woven so little that is uplifting or exalting into the Gods we have invented. Quite a shame, really.

"No more nog for you"

You won't be the judge of that. You just feed your own face!
