    How the hell do they explain his “love” then? Seems like they create more problems than they fix with this crap.

      “Love” in the scriptures is typically a verb, e.g., “God so loved the world…” It describes an action that God does, not a feeling. God’s love is his acting in a loving way towards undeserving people.

      Exactly, that’s a perfectly theologian explanation, it sounds good, but doesn’t stand the least bit of scrutiny.
      Already the creation story on the first pages says god created light and saw the light is good. How is it good without subjective emotion?
      How exactly are gods emotions supposed to be different. Does good mean something different to god?

      Religion is nothing but worthless bullshit from start till end.
