The God of the Bible May Be Satan

The God of the Bible May Be Satan

I think based on the things we read from the bible such as the Old Testament and even the New Testament it would imply very distinctly that "God" is in actuality "Satan". To many Christians, I know this may sound like the worst blasphemy but don't worry, I'm atheist, I have that covered. I use to be a Christian, but after reading the bible and many stories within it, I've come to a conclusion- God is not the loving, caring, Creator we suppose him to be, but in reality an evil being. I say, let's look at his qualities then you can determine who or "what" type of being your dealing with. Let's do some quick comparing and contrasting. The bible says that Satan came to kill, steal, and destroy. That makes sense if he's an evil being; yes. Satan is here to divide and conquer, but I specifically remember reading the bible and having Jesus say he came to do the same exact thing, more or less. In the bible, God kills in large number, insights wars, lies, and purposely admits to confusing and confounding people, or sending "strong delusion". God says he creates the "good and the evil,..the light and the dark"...he also has been documented sending "evil spirits" to people. Putting lying spirits in the mouths of prophets too. If God is actually doing all of this stuff, what in the hell is Satan sitting back doing if he's a being distinct and different from God? Maybe Satan is free roaming the world somewhere not even bothering anybody afar off. Who knows? Anyway, right now, think about this,..if Jesus was real, and came to earth, you would think if he was a creator he came here to unite people in love or to bring peace. You'd expect that if he was loving, but he isn't -by his own words. Jesus is exactly the opposite.

"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.” -Matthew 10:34-37

"Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.” -Luke 12:51-53

Here we have Jesus openly saying he came not to bring peace on earth, but he actually came to bring division. Listen to that, division. He admits it. Why would a loving benevolent Creator say that he came to divide families and put people one against another in such confusion? Isn't that the devil's job? Why say I came not to bring peace, but ..."the sword"? The sword to me is a direct symbol of war. Remember? Live by the sword, die by the sword? Not only that, God himself admits he is a "God of War".

"The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name." (Exodus 15:3)

This is very interesting. How can any rational person, even a Christian, believe in such a being with these type of qualities? Satan is pointed to as the author of confusion, but in the bible, God saw that men were going to build a building that reached into the sky or "the heavens" so God got angry and said "let us go down and confound their language so that they may not communicate one with another". Remember that? Before God confused man's language, God saw that if man were to put his mind to anything, nothing would be impossible for him. I guess the story serves to show how the many languages of the world came to be but I think it's rather evil for what God did. Apparently, humanity would have advanced had we built this structure, yet God confounded the language of everyone so that we cannot work in unity as one. God is ultimately the author of confusion then, ..not Satan. This is only one example of many. If we have a being out there, invisible to man, who made everything, sends evil spirits to people, purposely causes evils and disasters, supposedly murders people on a large scale,...how can we not look at this being as Satan or just outright evil? If God were good, why cause and create evil for our world at all? Is evil a necessary thing or a punishment from God? Who knows. But I will tell you this, if you read the bible for yourself, I don't see how you don't come away as an atheist. The very being we all "wished" was out there,..loving, benevolent, caring, protecting, and all those things, if he's real, I think he has to be Satan in disguise. The world is filled with evil, murders, unprotection, disasters, wars, diseases that literally appear out of nowhere, and many other things,- how does it make you feel to know that the being that you believe in as a Creator purposely causes all those things? If the God of the bible is real, in any aspect, I think he's evil. Call him Satan, call him whoever you want, but he ain't good. What are your thoughts on the issues I raised guys? What is your outlook on the world if a hidden Creator actually did exist? What do you think humanities relationship is to that Creator if he exist? And if he admitted to causing the evils of the world, would you still worship him?
