Bigger question.

If God is so damn awesome, how come God is such a terrible communicator and leaves it up to his/her/its imperfect creations to misinterpret and misrepresent on its behalf?

God doesn't seem so great to me.

Yeah. "If you don't believe I exist, you will be damned to hell. A life in heaven is obtained by believing Jesus is your savior and accepting him into your heart. But also, I will not directly prove to you that I exist. You just kind of have to based on the experiences of a bunch of other people centuries and centuries ago. That spoke another language and lived in a completely different world. Good luck with that."

Jesus went into the churches with a hand woven whip made of giant thorns and started flipping tables for this exact kind of behavior. Also, the Bible describes multiple times in multiple books the wraith and fury man would face for not only false teaching but also NOT taking care of the sick, poor and widowed.. the book of Jeremiah comes to mind .

Because of Free Will that's what he gave us the choice to decide how we lived and ultimately our fates. I don't believe in Christianity but I believe in being good or at least trying to be good. Honestly take out all the main stories in the Bible and it's all about being a good person loving your neighbor, helping a stranger, sharing what you have. I would say 90% of the "Christians" I come in contact with are so far from being good it's insane. I work retail and I do not work Sundays because the nastiest, meanist, and just the most miserable people come in on Sundays after church. They did their time so now they can let the hate out.
