Does God prefer a certain religion because he likes it better?
Isn't He only filled with fact?
Can you hate something based on knowledge?
If you hate murder isn't that because (in your opinion) it's wrong?

God is the ONLY opinion that matters. Which means that it's not reall "opinion", it's truth. Since He is holy and He created us, the world, and all of the laws of nature, He is the source for everything pure. Every person's (or Christian's, at least) opinion should come from the Bible, since it is God's inspired Word (but that doesn't mean that every Christian's opinion is the same, since some people interpret different parts of the Bible differently). God doesn't prefer a certain religion because He likes it better, He knows that the one and only true way is through His Son.

In the Bible, God says He hates sin. He also says that murder is sin, therefore He hates murder, so WE should hate murder. If the Bible doesn't address an opinion (such as raising taxes) then it is a non-issue and doesn't really matter to God.

Yes, God has feelings, but His feelings are always righteous.

o·pin·ion
NOUN:

A belief or conclusion held with confidence but not substantiated by positive knowledge or proof. (American Heritage Dictionary)

We have to have opinions because we cannot positively know. God knows.

I believe we are made in God's spiritual likeness. I believe that love and hate (and all other emotions) are spiritual aspects of humanity.

I suppose you could hate based on knowledge. (Or ignorance - which still goes back to what - little - you know.)

I do believe that God has feelings. I don't believe that they are as fickle as ours are.

I'll have to think about the whole hating murder because in my opinion it's wrong part.

Since God is the creator of all things visable and invisable I think he has a perfect right to be opinionated if he chooses.
As for the last part of your question: If God did not have feelings of mercy he never would have sent his only begotten son to die for us and make it possible for us to have eternal life.

If he exists, then he got his panties in a bunch over the things he created, so he flooded the planet and started over. I'd say that's pretty opinionated! If he is so perfect, he wouldn't have had to kill everybody off! Even then, he killed them in a horrific and primitive way: suffocation. He could have just blinked them out of existence yet he chose to make them have scary and horrible deaths! Very immature and opinionated indeed!

God isn't religion. And he's God, so he doesn't have to be opinionated because he's always right!

God is perfect and holy. He has a different way of thinking than us. He created us (thus he created logic and emotions.) God gave us a purpose in life. That purpose is to worship Him and give Him glory. He tells us in His Word. Though he does give us a choice to fullfill this purpose or not.

God knows what is best for us, and God knows what we need to be healthy and happy--that is why God gives us rules. God does have feelings (we were created in His image). Hope that helps.

Because god doesn't exist, Xtians make all kinds of stuff up that he's capable of doing. It's a useless discussion with them.

God doesn't prefer one thing over another. He loves everyone, even those who don't love Him. He wants to have a personal relationship with everybody. that's why He created people-------so they would worship Him ---------and He is worthy of all praise.
