“The depiction of God as an ogre in the OT and a loving marshmallow in the NT is mythical nonsense born of biblical illiteracy.”

In my experience, it’s mostly atheists who have that opinion.

A major difference between the Old Testament and the New is that the New Testament has Jesus Christ. And as He died for our sins, maybe there is no need for hell?

You got that right, they will say there is no God, but if a baby some where in the world dies of hunger, they will say how can God be so cruel.

It makes me wonder if they are really atheists or if they just hate God. which ever they are it seems something is missing.
