But to understand and accept that we must be humble enough to accept that God is a superior being with the Authourity to expect and do what he does.
And if that is your point of view you would have to accept there is no such thing as subjective morality, morals would be whatever God said they were so if he decreed murder was okay (and he's done that often) then it would be okay to murder others.
If you want good thought out morals based on logic and empathy you would have to speak to an atheist, forget God he may change his mind.
If God plays no part in man's affairs and there is no evidence he does, then why are we bothered about him, why does he matter?
If he does play some part, why does he keep it so well hidden and if the bible is his word why did he not make it clearer, why are there so many different interpretations of just about every part of it so that we have approximately 41,000 different denominations of churches all of which disagree with each other, shouldn't there just be one?
One conclusion you could come to after reading the Bible is that if God exists his sole purpose in creating the earth and man to populate it, is to have people to worship and glorify him, a bit like a small spiteful child who wants a kitten to play with, whether or not the kitten actually wants to is immaterial it doesn't have the option, it's punished if it doesn't.
However since there is no evidence whatsoever for an all powerful god, one should worry about living a worthwile life and not fret over keeping happy a non existent being with their man invented demands on our behaviour.
