It is time to realize that God despises violence?

Question

It is time to realize that God despises violence and despises the ones who engage in it. So, no one kills in the name of Mohamed, Jesus, Allah, Jehovah or, God. They kill because they're ignorant and have not other way of expressing themselves other than violently. We must also remember that one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter, so we must abolish oppression ism and uphold education and freedom of speech. Once a man is articulate, educated and, has the right to say whatever his heart bears, he feels he can be heard and the world will listen. Once we do those basic things violence will end and peace will reign

Answer 2

This is a unbelievable question/statement. God(if such exist) in the literal sense is violence. "From ruins comes creation" In most cases "ruins" is a product from violence. As far as your advice regarding education.... I agree that a enlightened person will realize that in one form or another they themselves were or are grouped with people or things not so pleasing. When humans realize that internally we are all the same creatures only then will we understand what god's intention is....

Answer 3

Better study your religion more, God is full of vengence, 'He" smote down the world before...i.e. the flood and Noah's Ark...and there's that old thing about 'non-believers'...you are sounding off because you are befuddled by events beyond your concept. It is not to say they are good or bad, but beyond your sphere of cognition. It is time to get a grip on reality and understand that man is not controlled by God, but God is supposed to be omnipotent and therein lies the clash.

Answer 4

It is true that Jehovah hates what is bad. His main atributes are Love, Justice, Wisdom and Power. Notice his first attribute is Love. It is, in part, because of this love that we Jehovah's Witnesses do not serve in the military.

Answer 5

the bible is one of the most violent perverse books around, probably cause its written by men, and since they invented god and they claim that god made man in his own image, god must like violence, so your whole arguement is wrong from the start.
