Not for the first time have I seen The Old Testament God described as a God with a ‘dark side’. He is after all responsible for floods, plagues, famines and sometimes just outright genocide. However, according to traditional believers, it’s not so much the case that the Old Testament God is ‘trigger happy’ but that this more violent side is just another part of God, who like us, is multifaceted. Stephen Fry refers to God as ‘mean-minded’, ‘monstrous’ and even as a ‘maniac’ – blasphemous words indeed, but ones that do reflect the opinion those might have on a deity that destroys cities, spreads famine and diseases and at one point drowns the entire world. However, if we were to consult with the traditional believer, they might say that these actions are justified and that these acts are not ‘random vindictiveness’, but rather punishments owed to those who have done wrong.
On that note, in today’s episode, we’ll be analysing each and every time God snuffs someone out of existence and hopefully, we’ll have a more informed sense of what God’s final kill count looks like by the end of Genesis.

That's why they worship him he's evil incarnate the concept of evil even tho he doesn't exist.
11:32 pulling out is wicked 😅 fuuuuck!
Satan / Devil or Lucifer has yet to kill one person / maybe torment however that's about it!
God is of the most purest and evangelical love. But God has an inevitable righteous wrath. A wrath that happens when he gives you a choice and you choose to do evil. There's no such thing as love is love. His word is truth
GOD said "i do whatever I want & no one in the heavens or on the Earth can say what has thy done" & GOD said "if i turn my face away from the earth it shall all crumble" I don't remember the verses for chapter God bless you all
