Pastor Frank, I "love" but don't believe in the biblical "God."
Your biblical "God" would NOT be one of "love" since that book's stories
have him purposely creating us imperfect/faulty and then having the audacity
to want to punish us with eternal torment for HIS blunderous craftsmanship.
:-)
Is your "God" totally insane, a devil, or fictitious? Of course the latter
is true.

Anti-semite, anti-Christain, anti-Islam - I'm pretty much anti any
religion that tries to control others.
That means you want to be out of control.
No, we just don't want your barbaric religion controlling our lives,
ANY aspect of our lives.
Are you anti-social too? We
Christians don't mind being controlled by love, for our "God is love"
(1
John 4:8,16) and he who is in love is in heaven with our God. See
below
Repeatedly spouting crap from your
'Readers Digest version of Christian texts' you call the bible, doesn't
make them true.
What "version" of atheist secular fundamentalism are you "spouting"
that
it should be true? We Christians do not speak of realities, but of ideals
which we want to become reality and therefore seek to live up to. If you
consider caring about others as one cares for oneself "crap", you sure are
to be pitied, for you miss the greatest most transporting experience life
has to offer. For only he who loves knows God, and His Kingdom of Heaven.

1Jn:4:8: He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love.
1Jn:4:16: And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God
is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
