The God of the Bible is also a God of RIGHTEOUSNESS, JUSTICE, HOLINESS, and JUDGEMENT. Yet, for some reason, people keep forgeting to mention those things.

Because that's what God really is. Have you ever read the Old Testament? He is very intolerant. He smites whole races of people for no better reason because "they are not his chosen people" and punishes the Hebrews (by plagues, famines, and more smiting) because they do the tiniest thing wrong that does not adhere to his commandments, and constantly incites his people to make war and destroy people that do not follow his commandments. If he's love and peace, obviously "love and peace" meant something like "death, hate, bigotry and greed" back in those days.

Because there is waaaaaaaaay more money in death, hate, bigotry and greed than in compassion, love and sympathy. Just ask Jesus (who died bankrupt) or Jerry Falwell, Jim Bakker, & that fat slug Pat Robertson.

Just stick to your belief in, quote you: "a God of Love and Peace" follow Him practicing these, otherwise you are, with your question, against the very principle you are standing for.

Because they are like fundamentalists all over the world, no matter which religion. They think they are right, everyone else has a false faith, and they think the god of their faith is going to punish the rest of us.

i think that on account that we were married in a church, God become present there and Blessed our marriage then. he's continuously in my heart and soul inspite of i'm doing, good or undesirable. that's my believe in Him that keeps me getting into the direction of extra good activities. And the older I grow to be, the extra in-music i think I grow to be with God...and the extra I study from others and God, the extra I comprehend God and my sexual responsibilities and desires with my better 0.5 and how that is all suitable. Which comes complete circle proving to me that God is thoroughly on excellent of problems with my existence bodily, emotionally, and spiritually. God has performed a needed area in my lovemaking/sexual existence and that i call it devine intervention.....as I have helped those with issues they have, they have helped me with issues i become having, not bodily yet emotionally and spiritually, deep interior of that i did not understand a thanks to fix.

They believe they have a monopoly on truth, so everyone who doesn't believe what they do are inferior and must be treated that way. It is true of all religious fundamentalists.
