Many Christians do not understand why non believers find very little morality in the bible.  The following is one of many examples of why we find little value in any versions of the Christian bible.

I used to have  more complete list but it's on my other computer and that computer is not set up for on line access so i found this partial list.  It's God'**** List.  The people he killed or had killed.

I'm interested in how anyone could find this moral, ethical, or loving, please note... answers of "It's just too great for us to understand and comprehend," is a cop out.  It's not too great, it's pretty easy to see.  How is the following considered to be moral?

How many has God killed? (Complete list and estimated total)

I kill ... I wound ... I will make my arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh. -- Deuteronomy 32:39-42

In a previous post, I've listed and counted God's killings in the Bible. But I only included those that said exactly how many were killed by God. I came up with 2,391,421.

But that didn't include some of God's most impressive slaughters. How many did God drown in the flood or burn to death in Sodom and Gomorrah? How many first-born Egyptians did he kill? The Bible doesn't say, so there's no way to know for sure. But it's possible to provide rough estimates in order to get a grand total, and that's what I'm attempting here. (New total: 33 million.)
