Given the Bible, God is Morally Repugnant and Undeserving of Praise.

My opponents arguments have been thought out and forceful. My opponent's claims are well constructed and designed to ring true of the terrible nature he puts onto God. God is a being of wrath (Zephaniah 1:18), jealousy (Exodus 20:15), hatred (Malachi 1:2-3), and many other emotions that we attribute to sin. But, are the feelings sin, or are actions sin? To be honest, I'm surprised my opponent did not attack Jesus more. Anger in the temple, choosing to help only a few instead of all, telling his followers to leave successful lives and careers to follow him to be beaten and later die. My opponent seeks to make you think that there are versus upon versus about God's morally repugnant ways. My opponent also, apparently, is incapable of providing any other evidences than the 10-15 he was given, though I myself have come up with a few more, just to add to his arsenal for later ;) My opponent likens God to a coach who tells his team not to go out and party (in whatever way they do) over the weekend and himself comes back trashed, and any player that is trashed as well is severely punished. The coach created the team, the coach gave the team its instructions, and the coach was a hypocrite. What a jerk! Seriously, how could any intelligent person play for someone like that? Surely such a coach would see his numbers dwindle and be incapable of performing even the slightest task (http://en.wikipedia.org...). Or maybe, by keeping those that don't know how to control themselves, he has the greatest team and is worthy of praise, though not necessarily likable. Or even likable at all! Using Bobby Knight as an example, the guy was a jerk. He did and said terrible things. If you want to see some interesting things, youtube Bobby Knight and just watch. The man was/is morally repugnant in every way shape and form. But, he's the most winning coach in NCAA Div I history. He's had players that have gone on to have amazing careers, not just in sports, but in the world at large as well (http://en.wikipedia.org...). Yes, Bobby Knight is, to put it mildly, a jerk. But he has been praised by basketball fans for how well he ran his program. Obviously, morality has nothing to do with praiseworthiness. What my opponent wants you to think is that though you are immoral, you are no worse than God. And since you and God are on the same level, you don't have to praise him. But again, I have not really argued the morality of God because, God's morality doesn't change the fact that we should praise him. I have shown that God is deserving of praise several times, where my opponent has shown God's moral repugnance. But, if God is to be praised as not just a coach, but the creator of the whole universe. Who was, and is, and is to come. Who wrote TRUE moral code before you and I, even the universe existed. Then, is it not possible that there are rules that are apparently specified in the Bible( in the way of showing what happens if you break a rule) that make God moral and you and I immoral again? My opponent has done a good job of writing the same things over and over, he was much more eloquent than cut and paste. I wish him luck in this debate and future ones. I hope you enjoyed this debate. I want to see reasons people! Don't vote if you're not going to explain yourself.
