Gods actions can be unappealing, but man's actions are far more dangerous to life on planet Earth!

The God I will be speaking of in this debate will be a pantheistic God as understood by the fine-turning arguments of the universe. The fine-tuning arguments present a universe that is very unique, in that they argue that the universe is just right for complex biological life to develop. Therefore God will be a God with limitations, that has struggled to create a universe with perceptible matter that has amalgamated to form planets, stars and galaxies. Using red-shift measurements of the expanding universe, astronomers currently understand that the universe is roughly 13.8 billion years old [1]. Thus God will have invested quite a bit of energy and time up to this point to have created the universe in the present state it's in.As for the meticulous work of God in the construction of of our universe, to house advanced biological life-forms like ourselves, I will consult the wise words of world-famous theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking:"The laws of science, as we know them . . . contain many fundamental numbers, like the size of the electric charge of the electron and the ratio of the masses of the proton and the electron . . . . The remarkable fact is that the values of these numbers seem to have been very finely adjusted to make possible the development of life [2]." According to Steven Hawking, our universe is just right for life. If the fundamental constants of this universe were slightly different, life would not be possible. This is a view that is now gaining strength in the scientific community. Physicist Paul Davies, who was once a critic of the fine-tuning arguments decades ago, but now acknowledges that they are legitimate, has this to say:"There is now broad agreement among physicists and cosmologists that the Universe is in several respects fine-tuned for life [3]." Additionally, he says this: "Calculations by Brandon Carter show that if gravity had been stronger or weaker by 1 part in 10^40, then . . . stars like the sun could not exist. This would . . . make life impossible [4]." And then there is this: "If the initial explosion of the big bang had differed in strength by as little as 1 part in 10^60, the universe would have either quickly collapsed back on itself, or expanded too rapidly for stars to form. In either case, life would be impossible [5]."That our universe is just right for life is accepted beyond reasonable doubt. Very few physicist now disagree with this view, though there are some that try to paint a perspective that many, alternative universes have the right conditions for unique forms of biological life. Nevertheless arguments arise concerning the stability of matter, as the parameters of our universe allow for the existence and stability of protons and electrons - the fundamental units of matter in our universe. If many of these parameters differed even by a little, a universe filled with matter (and thus with chemistry) would not be possible.As expressed by world-renown physicist Paul Davies and Stephen Hawking, almost all scientists now agree that our universe occupies a very narrow place, by having just the right conditions for life, where matter can congregate to form stars and planets, where the liquid medium of water is possible, and where molecular chemistry exist because the proton and electron are unique stable particles. This discovery is a revelation about the true nature and real capacities of the God of this universe. It is not all that powerful, and it seems to be limited by rudimentary natural principles (whatever those may be), but that it has expended massive quantities of energy and massive care in the construction of this universe is beyond all doubt - if it in fact exist. The evidence shows that, if God does exist, it has meticulously created a universe just right for life, and therefore has a rightful claim to everything going-on inside of it.It has taken God billions of years to carefully craft this universe, and ultimately to create complex cellular organisms that would evolve into intelligent, articulate organisms like ourselves. Like a man that has constructed a house for his family, God has special pride in his work. And when someone threatens to burn down his house or injure his family, God, who has invested heavily in a universe just right for life, must respond with clarified threats, aggressive behavior and destruction.God's work is special. And destructive people must be put on notice. Thus the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule. But should men follow through with their destructive habits and attitudes, God has no choice but to injure such dangerous men, cultures, and socities. Death and destruction will rain down upon those that make God's work vain!I will defend this argument in the next ROUND.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org...[2] http://en.wikipedia.org...[3] [4] [5] http://www.discovery.org...
