Jack> Yeah, you're right about the God in the Old Testament. In the OT, God was ambivalent, responsible of both, good and evil, before the concept of some evil counter-god, Satan in this case... who appears first in the book of Job, if I remember correctly.
And the thing why I don't take Bible so seriously is that it was written by people, not God, as many people seem to believe. People do mistakes (that can obviously be seen very clearly in the bible) I, for one, am a religious nihilist (if that's a right word for it...). It basically means that the existence or nonexistence of God really doesn't matter for me. World wouldn't be any different, be it with or without Him. But I do find the New Testament, especially Jesus and his moral doctrine (corrupted by most of the modern christians, though) very interesting.
Well, the first chapter was really my point, the second was just some of my own opinions.
