I don't know what you mean by the "Christian God." Whatever we call Him there is only One God and He is not a hypocrite.
I guess you haven't heard, Julian? The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. The Author of Life is totally within His right to flood His own Creation if it suits His purpose.
And when you speak of the Biblical Flood you are speaking of pre-Christian times. Man was created in His image and likeness. Christians came later.

Your so ignorant it made me chuckle. God gave Moses the commandment do not kill. Correct. However, if you read the book of deuteronemy it says that because of all the evil and lack of faith in God of the people in the land at the time, He flooded the earth just to prove His point. That's why its not smart to question God, because when God has to show you He's God its going to cost you something. And also it's not hypocritical, because also in the old testoment it says the the rightous will not perish with the wicked. So all those who believe in God, which just happened to be His prophet Noah at the time, lived.

The issue would be the reason why He flooded the earth.
During the pre-flood era, there were Nephelim (human/angel hybrids) bullying the people on earth. Violence was horribly rampant by both humans and Nephilim. They knew God's laws. They had a chance to turn around, as Noah preached and preached, over a period of 40 yrs. God caused the deluge and God dealt with the angels that were disobedient, not allowing them access to heaven amongst His loyal angels.
If God hadn't stepped in, all would be dead anyway from killing one another.
God is the life giver.
He does'nt owe us anything.
We owe Him.
Life is something God chose to give us.
It is His decision to grant life or deny life.

The flood came before the ten commandments. The flood was a judgement call. God gives another judgement call for each of us when the bell tolls and we breath our last breath some day. That one will be a toasty one and a bit less merciful than drowning.

Yes, and the apples do not fall far from the tree. Hypocrites never see themselves as
hypocrites. According to The Bible Jehovah murdered all life except Noah and a few others. Murder is murder no matter who does it.
Religion away with them all.

GOD Is GOD (The Creator).........He can do what ever He wants to do, wheather you or man-kind agrees with it or not!....example , just like the judges in the courtroom on this earth, the policeman on this earth, the school teacher on this earth, the lawyers on this earth, the doctors on this earth, the employers in whom you work for on this earth, etc. etc. etc........so what's the big deal?????.....deal with it!.....by the way, I don't believe (Julia) would make this statment........you are probably an impersonator!

If memory serves - flood came FIRST then the Commandments.
So there is not hypocrisy. Well, at least from God, you on the other hand are full of it.

Job stood up and tore his robe in grief. Then he shaved his head and fell to the ground before God. He said, "I came naked from my mother's womb, and I will be stripped of everything when I die. The LORD gave me everything I had, and the LORD has taken it away. Praise the name of the LORD!"
In all of this, Job did not sin by blaming God. Job 1:20-22

oh, you silly little drag queen. if you had ever picked up a Bible and read it, you wouldn't keep making a fool of yourself. the flood occurred before the 10 commandments were brought down. why don't you sit down and read a bit, come back in a couple years when you understand it, and then we'll have an intelligent conversation.
