Doubt??
You bet ya especially after looking closer at what the Christian Bible says about God having people do to glorify himself!!
"O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be,
that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that
taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." (Psalms 137:8-9)
"The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled
against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be
dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open." (Hosea 13:16)
"Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is
joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their
houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished." (Isaiah 13:15,16)
"Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they
shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare
children." (Isaiah 13:18)
I am the LORD your God, ...... And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat." (Leviticus 26:13,29)
"And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy
sons and of thy daughters, which the LORD thy God hath given thee,
in the siege, and in the straitness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress
thee:.............. And toward her young one that cometh out from between
her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall
eat them for want of all things secretly in the siege and straitness, wherewith
thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates." (Deuteronomy 28:53-57)
"Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD,..... And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one of the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall straiten them." (Jeremiah 19:6-9)
"Therefore fathers shall eat their sons in the midst of you and sons
shall eat their fathers.......I will send famine and wild beasts against you
and they shall rob you of your children; pestilence and blood shall pass
through you; and I will bring a sword upon you. I, the Lord, have
spoken." (Ezekiel 5:10, 17)
"The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children: they were their meat in the destruction of the daughter of my people. The Lord hath accomplished his fury; he hath poured out his fierce anger, and hath kindled a fire in Zion, and it hath devoured the foundations thereof." (Lamentations 4:10-11)
If that isn't enough, how would you feel if your daughter was taken for someones sexual pleasures while her family is slaughtered all in the name of god?
When you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord your God delivers them into your hand, and you take them captive, and you see among the captives a beautiful woman, and desire her and would take her for your wife, then you shall bring her home to your house, and she shall shave her head and trim her nails. She shall put off the clothes of her captivity, remain in your house, and mourn her father and her mother a full month; after that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. And it shall be, if you have no delight in her, then you shall set her free, but you certainly shall not sell her for money; you shall not treat her brutally, because you have humbled her (Deuteronomy 21:10-14).
Back when that stuff was written, that was the deal for the day regardless of which god they believed in, so everyone wanted the biggest, baddest god , so the others would be afraid of them..
So after being born in a Christian family with pastors as my grandparents, whom I still love dearly.
Then following in their footsteps and becoming a Youth pastor and Asst Pastor for the Assemblies Of God, I sent my son to bible college etc..
Doubts??,, not about that there is a God, but no way the one they try and make me believe in the Bible,,that's why now I am an agnostic!!
Take care
