You're welcome!
Could I see the passage please?
Might as well start with Exodus 32:26-28, where Moses orders the slaughter of those who worshiped a pagan god over Jehovah. God latter shows his support for this by sending a plague to kill even more people in Exodus 32:35. To add in, defend the ten plagues as being morally correct, if you have time.
Also, all of Numbers 16. In it, members of Israel go to Moses to ask for a more democratic society, instead of the dictatorship with Moses as head. In return, God decides to kill every Israeli except for Moses and Aaron, but is convinced by Moses to just bury the leaders of the democracy movement alive, then later burn more of them alive. God then sends a plague that ends up killing another 14,700 people, apparently just for kicks.
In Genesis 38: 6-10, Onan didn't want to impregnate his brother's widow, so he pulled out and came on the ground. In response, God slew him.
In Exodus 20: 5-6, God says not only that he will punish those who worship other Gods, but that he will punish their children, and their children's children.
Luke, 19:27, Jesus orders people to kill those who will not follow him
Not done by God, but in 2 Samuel 12:26-31 David had the people in the Rabbah sawed and tortured to death.
In 1 Kings 18:70-40, Eljiah did the contest with the priests of Baal. After God answered Elijah and the priests converted on the spot to Judaism, they were rounded up and slaughtered. If this was not on the will of God, then God would have no reason to let it happen, as he showed himself just moments before.
In Numbers 25: 1-9, God ordered the murder of Israeli tribal leaders for allowing interfaith relationships. When an Israeli brought his Midianite girlfriend into the camp, the grandson of Aaron impaled them both with a javelin. This clearly pleased God, as at these acts he stopped the plague he had created that had killed 24,000 people.
And let's not forget Genesis 6:5-9, the Great Flood, a clear act of Genocide. And I don't want to look up the exact place, but let's add Sodom and Gomorrah.
In 1 Chronicles 13:7-11, David was transporting the Ark. Against God's wishes, it was not being done by priests by in a cart. It faltered, and so Uzza put his hand on the Ark to steady it. For touching the ark, God smote him dead.
In 2 Samuel 24: 1-15, God orders King David to do a census. He does so, but then feels as if he had sinned. God agrees, and let's David choose how to be punished. David chose pestilence, and so 70,000 people died because David did as God asked.
As well, Slavery is constantly referred to in the Bible, and they were allowed to beat their slaves, and as long as the slave lingered for longer then 24 hours after the beating before dying they committed no crime. Unfortunately, I gave up looking for that quote because I have no idea where I read it, so you're not required to respond to that (though maybe you know?). However, there is no doubt that slavery was allowed (and was allowed in way too many verses to list). When Jesus came around, he made no mention of slavery being immoral. Considering that slavery was a massive institution of the time, and that he constantly interacted with slaves and slave masters, why didn't Jesus bring it up that this was not a just thing to do? He mentioned almost every social qualm he could, so why not something as massive as slavery?
And throughout Exodus, God "hardened" the heart of Pharoh so he would not let the Jews leave, resulting in the genocide we now know of.
Also, in Exodus 4:24-26, God was apparently going to kill Moses. I honestly have no idea what this passage means, or how touching his child's foreskin saved his life, but it does show God acting with murderous intent.
In Numbers 11:10-34, God caused a plague among the Jews because they wept for meat when they had none.
In Numbers 21:34-35, God ordered the genocide of the Amorites.
In Galatians 1:9, Peter curses (literally) those who aren't Orthodox Christians.
Exodus 22:20 says to kill those who follow other Gods
Deuteronomy 13:1-5 says to kill priests of other religions
Deuteronomy 13:6-10 says to kill family members who ask you to worship other Gods.
That's enough about violence for now, I believe. But, other questions!
I've seen a lot of discussion about Abraham being asked to kill Isaac, but I never saw this asked. God did it to test Abraham's faith, which implies that until that moment, God did not know exactly how faithful Abraham was. This shows God to not be an omnipotent God. Along with this are the earlier passages I mentioned where God was prevented from killing Moses, or convinced by people to not do acts. These imply that God is both not always moral, and is not all powerful.
edit: and I didn't put the actual scripture in here because every time I do, the person I'm arguing with goes with the "well my Bible has a different translation", then drops off the face of the earth. But this isn't about words, this is about plot.
