How the God of the Bible is Guilty of Child Abuse

-
Abraham is told by God to go to the region of Moriah, atop a mountain, to sacrifice his son. Being the loyal servant he is, Abraham takes his son to the mountain complete with firewood and a knife to cut his son up.I can only imagine the amount of terror that engulfed Isaac when his father raised the knife to slay him. This amounts to psychological abuse.

God tells a community of how cruelly their innocent babies would be killed in their presence. To be exact God says, "Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes, their houses will be looted and their wives violated. See, I will stir up against them the Medes...their bows will strike up the young men; they will have no mercy on infants, nor will they look with compassion on children (Isaiah 143:16-18).

He orders the Israelite army to go attack the village of the Amalekites and to destroy everything they find there. They are supposed to kill every living things including infants and children. 1st Samuel 15:3, Now go, attack the Amalekites and destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.

Instead of punishing David directly for the mistakes he did, god kills David's baby. The baby had nothing to do with anything bad that David did, but for some strange reason, God sees it fit to kill David's innocent baby.2nd Samuel 12:13-18.

Elisha the bald headed prophet gets some mockery from a group of young boys. He puts a curse on them using the name of god who sends an angry bear to the kids. The bear tears up the boys killing all forty two of them. Isn't this just outrageous?

In Numbers 31:17-18, the war mongering god sends soldiers to attack a village. The soldiers are to kill every boy (child killing), but save for yourself every girl who has never slept with a man (Child sex abuse).

Cesare Borgia was one of the illegitimate sons of a pope called Alexander V1,he was trained in the church and eventually became the archbishop in his teenage years. He was a tyrannical man. Valiant, fearless and merciless, he ruled with a heavy hand. He was the modern day slay king, but very power hungry.  He was deceitful and very randy, sleeping with many women and engaging in shady deals. It is even suspected that he had sexual escapades with his own sister Lucrezia. He was considered the most handsome  man in Italy and he seemed to know it as he wore the most fashionable clothes.He got syphilis at a youthful age of 20 years. Borgia employed Leonardo Da Vinci as his engineer and military architect. The two had a sexual relationship and Da Vinci, having an artistic soul painted Borgia many times. His handsome face from the paintings was used for centuries as an inspiration to represent Jesus Christ. Christians worshipped and adored his image for a long time. History has re...

Why are Atheists Always So Angry?

-
   Atheists have been long been misunderstood as bitter people. People who went through bitter experiences and are now channeling their anger to "God". We have been told about our mental health being in a poor state. We have been called lost and misguided. These words are by no means polite, they are pretty much accusatory, of ignorance and weakness on our part. Strangely enough, believers don't understand why such comments would put us off. In fact, believers expect atheists to respect every bible verse that springs out of their mouth, they expect atheists to cow when they threaten them with doom, curses and hellfire, to take their words so seriously. I consider this a very poor attitude towards civility. I as an atheist, am angry, at the continuous religious indoctrination of every generation that comes forth. I am angry that I cannot openly proclaim my atheism lest people get a bad image of me, may see me as a byword, may even start alienating me. I am  angry that athe...

Kina the TV series and it's portrayal of atheism

-

   It is heartbreaking that most religious people have the idea that atheism is the symbolism of evil. Most have the tendency to think that atheist minds are under the influence of the lord of the underworld, namely , 'Satan'. It is expected that a non believer of religion  has no conscience to steer him or her away from evil, and that the ability to do good comes from a god. This is quite wrong since we all know that animals such as dogs and elephants have demonstrated acts of kindness despite them not being followers of any religion. That aside, I got a few chances to watch Kina the Kenyan TV series and wasn't much shocked to find out that Nana, the villain in the story is an atheist. In one of the episodes, she opens up about not believing in God. This is quite good evidence that atheism is equated to evil here in Kenya. Believers are likely to label you as a Satan adherent if they find out you are an atheist, despite atheists not believing in the biblical...
