Jehovah wanted murder rape and slavery and christians worship his son, which might be an exact copy of his father, this is a god not worth worship.

Its not that they arent aware its that they dont care. you know i think Thomas Paine said it best: a Cruel man believes in a cruel God. Jehovah is the God of cruelty and most christians are depraved and sadistic people that love to torture people then give the martyr complex.

The "question" contains outright lies and gross distortions about the bible and true Christianity. Here are a few Scriptural thoughts to consider:
(Romans 16:17) Keep your eye on those who cause divisions and occasions for stumbling contrary to the teaching that you have learned, and avoid them.
(2 Corinthians 4:4-6) The god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers
(Philippians 2:14-15) In among a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you are shining as illuminators in the world
(1 Timothy 6:3-5) If any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, he is puffed up with pride, not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased over questionings and debates about words. From these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions, violent disputes about trifles on the part of men corrupted in mind and despoiled of the truth

Have you ever read the Bible? Do you know every concept of every belief/religion? It's impossible to take one concept to base or judge any type of belief. You have to read the passage in the context of which it was written. There are many passages in the Bible that make absolutely no sense if taken out of context. I'm not sure that you have enough information to base your question! You/we can't pick and choose and expect any concept to make sense. It's impossible to judge something that you/we have no understanding of! You're trying to interpret a spiritual concept with a carnal mind. This holds true for any belief! Just because you/we don't understand it, doesn't negate the fact that it's still truth to those who believe and have an understanding of that particular belief. I think in every religion there are disturbing passages, that we don't understand. It would be impossible for me to interpret the Koran because I have no knowledge or understanding of what it means. Maybe there's someone you know who's knowledgeable of the Bible who can help you have a better understanding of this concept.
Good Question!

Jesus was willing to die, because of the same love for mankind
that Jehovah has.
It certainly was a sacrifice on God's part, even knowing that
He would resurrect His Son in 3 days. Jesus knew it as well... nevertheless,
it was an Act of Love on the part of the Father and His only begotten Son.
It has brought everlasting benefits to millions. I am only one of
many who know Jehovah is indeed worthy of worship. -Rev 4:11
PS This is a reply to reasonable persons everywhere

It's called sacrifice not murder.
First of all you're operating under the assumption that humans make the rules, wrong. God made man perfect, man sinned and therefore is separated from a perfect God, God loves man and decreed that blood must be shed to reunite man and God. This blood was to be that of unblemished animals to begin with but God had a greater plan in mind.
He sent his Son, a perfect man, to shed his blood and thus do away with the continual need for blood sacrifices. As thru one man's sin all would die, thru one Man's sacrifice all might live.
Secondly, (in case you don't like the first argument) I guess you also believe that the men and women who serve in our armed forces have also been murdered by various presidents throughtout history. Each one of them (with the exception of draftees of course) chose to serve our country as a soldier. Did they sign up hoping and wanting to die, no, but each one considered their country worthy of the possibility that they may pay the ultimate price. Jesus came because he was asked, not because he was forced. Did he want to die on the cross, no he did not (John 12:20-28) but he considered His Father worthy of the sacrifice.
