God can hate, be jealous, be vengeful, kill innocent people and children, cause illness and suffering, and, oh yeah, condemn people to eternal torture for cursing his name...but it's all okay with us. Why doesn't he have to be moral? Why is he worshipped for doing the things we sentence humans to death for?

sounds hypocritical to me.
I guess people are blind and see their Gods as nothing less than perfect

I don't know if you really believe in God, because if you did, you would see that in order for God to be all that you falsely accuse Him of being or what not's, then He would have to be like everyone else here on earth with a sinful nature.
Then that would make everything He Promised us and told us, A Lie.
Then He would be going against "His Own Word", The Bible.
I would be careful in how you think and believe about Him, It Says in the Bible What He Does To People Like You, And The Way Ya'll Believe.
The best way for you to be saved is to get you a Bible, I Don't Care What Translation As Long It Is Easy For You To Understand, and read it from beginning to end, cover to cover, In Order For You To Understand The Real God. And Just For Fun, Go Ahead And Read The Very Last Book Of The Bible, The Revelation, First, then you will see how the world really ends, what happens to people who think and act like you, and how God really is; Then Maybe Hopefully, You Will Understand.
Good Luck To You, I Hope You Find What Your Looking For, But Safely.

how do you know god hates, can be jealous, be vengeful? (because the bible tells you so? well i think we all know that the bible is BS, and shouldnt be taken seriously)
god doesnt kill anyone... we kill one another.
illness is a result of nature.. germs have the right to live too...
suffering is caused by desire.
and god doesnt condemn anyone.. (again the bible cant be proof of anything)

You have several things wrong.
G-d is also perfectly loving, gracious, kind, compassionate, full of mercy, truth...these attributes balance out His seemingly harsh side. When He makes a decision to punish someone, it has been after opportunity & grace have been offered.
G-d also does not condemn people for cursing His name. They choose to bring condemnation on themself when they curse His name.
He is not immoral, nor does He receive worship for what you are calling immorality. We worship Him because of His love...mercy...grace...strength...beauty...forgiveness...the ways He has revealed Himself to us in our own unique lives. THESE are the things we worship Him for.

Maybe God believes in relative morality?

Cause he's god. You know kind of like how my mom always told me that I couldn't do something, then she would do that something and say she was allowed to cause she was mom.

God is perfect; anything God does is just, even if humans can't understand it.
