cdr_n- The destruction of the city of ai? The killing of a mans ENTIRE family because on man took the spoils of war? THE GREAT FLOOD? HELL?! The murder and tortures of BILLIONS because of religous preference?
How can you say what you do in good conscience?

You might need to clarify the question for a fair answer.
The God of the Bible created the world and all that is in it, gave it to mankind for our use, and thus is the source of all good. The God of the Bible instructs his people to love one another, and in addition, to love all people of the earth.
In the name of God his followers have traditionally been concerned for the general welfare of all persons - resulting in hospitals, orphanages, feeding program, schools, water projects, homeless shelters - in short, every good that can be imagined.
Its hard to see any similarity to Hitler, and it seems to me that you would be privileged to count God - or his followers - among your friends.

if the bible were true then yes we should, but what you have to remember is the bible is written by men, with their viewpoints and prejudices built in, as id the koran, and every other supposed "holy" reference book. so what do you think? did god really create all men and then say to some, "they're not my choice of people, so you just go have a holy war and murder then ok" or do you prefer to think/believe in the merciful god the bible also purports to represent when in the ten commandmendts he says "love thy neighbour as thyself" he didn't say "love thy neighbour (but only if he's jewish/christian/catholic/muslim/buddhist) as thyself" did he? therefore it must be man who has made the distinctions in choice and not god, so what do you think? god may have made us, he also gave us freedom of choice, didnt he?

I'd be more worried (and pissed off at) the people carrying out the orders. It's easy to blame the non-existent deity, but telling your neighbor that their belief system is abhorrent takes guts.

Yes. If he were real. Love him and worship him or rot in hell forever. What a nice guy, Heaven sounds great when they put it that way.

You are free to consider him whatever makes you happy.

people should consider you the enemy as you are spouting what can only be discribed as bollocks.
Read matthew, mark, luke and john and then say that, because evidently if you can say that, than my friend you have not read anything about Jesus at all
