have you given it a try? Do you realize that the Old Testament is not full of these horrors that you speak of - Yet only contain a message of love? - You cite the destruction of Sodam and Gohmorah, a town full of not one single good person. - These people you would keep? - or did God just decide not to take them when they died? - The Answers are there my friend. - Read the book with open eyes and heart and you will feel the love.
