You seem to ignore God's mercy. You don't believe in a merciful God; He's just a myth to people like you. Because you live like animals you want to die like animals.

So, God is merciful? He never sends people to Hell unless they really, really, really deserves it? Right?
I basically think that death is it. It's like going to sleep or becoming unconscious; there is nothing, ever. Just as it were before we were born.
And yes, I have been unconscious, at least six times. There were nothing whatsoever for about fifteen to twenty minutes. That's when I ceased to be scared of death.
No, because we have read the Bible, or parts of it, and don't find any of that mercy until we reach the New Testament.
And you seem to ignore how "merciful" he was towards the Midianites, the Amalekites, and those 42 kids that made fun of Elisha's bald head.
"Die like animals"? Like, say, when god horribly drowns them, say, in a flood? You seem to ignore all the "mercy" he showed during the flood; which is to say, none at all.
He's a supposedly omnibenevolent and omnipotent god that could painlessly poof things to be exactly as he wishes, yet he chooses to horribly drown nearly every living thing on earth, including newborn babies and children in the womb. Not at all "merciful", was he? Not at all "pro-life", was he?
How he treated the Midianites, the Amalekites, the 42 kids, and everyone other than his chosen during the flood is the antithesis of mercy.
And why again did he do it? To "rid the world of evil"? Wow, that worked well...
“You seem to ignore God's mercy.”
God? An omnibenevolent being? A being of perfect mercy? That’s incompatible with the entire concept of Hell.
So, yes, i ignore appeals to an oxymoron.
“You don't believe in a merciful God;”
You don’t. You figure he’s selectively merciful, to you and people you approve of.
"He's just a myth to people like you.”
Better than the revenge fantasy Christains like to hold in their hearts.
“Because you live like animals you want to die like animals.”
We are animals, sweetie. Everything we do is done ‘like animals.’ Even when you pray, you pray ‘like animals.’
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
