According to the bible, that's how he is and I just hope the bible is wrong in that sense.
Did you read the last few verses of "Job"?
I did. Some of Job's friends were there and said some things and then God was severly persercuting them and "talking down to them" like that did something bad all because they weren't speaking the total truth to Job about whatever it was.
Would God played by Morgan Freeman from "Bruce Almighty" act like that over something so small? I think not.

Certainly do. Because sadly, the Bible is supposed to be historical, by a lot of people's views on here. The new testament isn't much better, either.
Morgan Freeman as God would work pretty well, mind.

Richard Dawkins said it better than I ever could when he said that the God of the Old Testament is "arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."

The problem is that the concept of god has evolved along with the culture(s) that conceived it. I would be surprised if early believers had the same concept as current believers of their respective gods.
