Back to Episodes2324: Sunday Podcast: Why Is Old Testament God Such A Vengeful Monster?
Description
Thanks for joining us for the Sunday podcast, where Rich turns his attention to either personal development or spiritual topics… and as you can see from the title, today is spiritual. And he's going to talk about God… and try to untangle the mess that the Bible seems to have put Christians in as they attempt to reconcile the notion of God as a loving heavenly parent versus the petulant tyrant that appears in the Old Testament. You know, the one who kills all of the world except Noah and his ark after just 10 pages. And even mild mannered Jesus lets the weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth fly when talking about the end of times. What are we to make of all this? As usual, Rich has opinions.
