Interesting, because, in one place, you are to love your enemies, do good for evil, etc.

Then God apparently gets angry and destroys everyone and everything, birds, cattle, innocent animals, even innocent babies who had done no wrongs in one giant flood.

Way to rid the earth of those pesky people (that he made, this after knowing they will do this)

How can God get mad at people or things for only doing what he knew they will do? Didn't he put them there? Isn't that kind of his fault?

It won't happen if he didn't do it, now will it?

Why would God be pleased by someone doing something that was morally repugnant to Christian ethics?

Another question: why do so many people feel the need to resort to such impossible "what if?" scenarios in order to push anti-religion points?

To me, it must mean that they don't have any real arguments to make -- so they must resort to the impossible to make their points.

This is an interesting question.
In one sense the question is flawed, because God would never ask you to do something that was against his moral law - God does not contradict himself.
However, there is an example in scripture where God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac on an altar as a sacrifice to him (something that goes against His law of not murdering) - however, God was providing this as a test for Abraham, and when he was found to be faithful and was about to kill his son, God stopped him and did not allow it.

I can see you have no understanding of God, if you did then you would know God wouldn't do that. Christians follow what Jesus Christ taught, so my sense of ethics is Jesus Christ.
