God obviously found them to be worthy of nothing less than death. Their cup of iniquity was filled up. The same goes and even more so for those who hear the gospel and turn their backs.

Chuzzlewit:

I especially like David, whom supposedly god found great favor with as he had killed his 10,000s. Love the incident where god instructs him to wipe out the inhabitants of a city so the Hebrews can have their land and to kill everything: men, women, children, babies, pets, cattle, goats -- everything. And then to burn it all down to the ground.

What a wonderful, benevolent, merciful, fairly judging, father we see here! What would any State's Department of Social Services say about this "father"?

Well, they need say nothing. I have decided to judge, and I find him guilty of creation abuse and sentence him to an eternity and a day in Hell 2 -- right next to Hell 1. Time to vote for a new god or. . . wait a minute! We don't really need a god at all. Let's just kick all the angels out when we die and we'll have a new American Spiritual Revolution -- the heavenly Tea Party. We'll end the heavenly monarchy-dictatorship and institute a democracy. What a concept. We'll have a god and vice-god for no more than 8 millennium terms (two 4 millennium terms, the second being upon re-election).
