The Christian god is unmerciful compared to the Jewish G-d.

"Jewish G-d sends wicked people to hell, a place of shame, everlasting contempt, and desolation" First, let us see what Judaism believe: We do believe in a type of Hell, but not the one found in cartoons and joke books. Hell is not a punishment in the conventional sense; it is, in fact, the expression of a great kindness. http://www.chabad.org... In a way, we don't want murders to be unpunished! That's why Daniel 12:2 say Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. This is the only passage that looks like there is an hell. But the word "contempt" only happen in two places. https://www.blueletterbible.org... The word mean: an object of aversion:"abhorring, contempt. We cannot conclude an hell as the Christian believe of pain an suffering. Furthermore, only the wicked go there. Not everybody that does not believe in Jesus! Psalm 110:5-6 talks about G-d protecting Israel. Furthermore, the Christian god says the same. All Old testament passages used by my opponent, the Christian god say it as well! "The only way to achieve righteousness is strict adherence to the Law as given to Moses by God" Non-Jews are nowhere obliged to keep the law. This was added by the god of the New Testament. The priest have specific requirements, women have specific requirements, men have specific requirement and Israel. Non-Jews are not bond to keep the law. "Ecclesiastes 7:20 Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous, no one who does what is right and never sins." Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. The Jewish G-d does not consider someone wicked after one sin! "But if a wicked person turns away from all the sins they have committed and keeps all my decrees and does what is just and right, that person will surely live; they will not die. Ezekiel 18:21 say that the wicked can turn from his wicked way and live! "The only way to become right with G-d (i.e. righteous) is through animal sacrifice, as prescribed in the Law." This is simply not true. The Christian god requires blood. The Jewish G-d requires repentance as shown on Ezekiel 18. If my opponent does not believe me, he may check this debate. http://www.debate.org... Prayer and repentance are cited here as effective means for securing atonement. http://jewsforjudaism.org... "Any time the people of Israel stopped following the law and turned to other gods, bad things happened to them as G-d"s punishment for not following the Law. (For numerous examples of this, see the book of Judges)" G-d requires that the children of Israel should not worship other gods. True, but my opponent forgot to say that the christian god did the same,... And let's not forget that the foreign god sacrificed babies and people! Thus, was G-d wrong to do so for them to repent? "G-d only revealed this way to become right with him to a select group of people." Jews don't believe only Jews go to heaven. http://www.jewfaq.org... "In fact G-d only chose to have relationships with one family" you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. Exodus 19:6 G-d chose Israel to be a nation that shows the example to the others. G-d wants everybody to know Him and He chose Israel to show His loving kindness to the whole earth. "(which was not always a great example)" People have a free will... I agree that Israel was not always a good example, nor was the church! "This means that one nation and race has a monopoly on salvation, everyone else is wicked and will be punished on judgement day." Gentile and Jews go to heaven if the are doing good (no perfection required) "In addition to this, the actions of G-d are extremely unmerciful." This applies to both the christian (old testament god) and Jewish G-d thus it is irrelevant to this debate. I will not go in details because, by doing so, my opponent actually say that the christian god is unmerciful! Because they believe the god of the old testament is the christian god. "G-d punishes people for the sins of their parents" This is just not true " The word of the Lord came to me again, saying, 2 "What do you mean when you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying: "The fathers have eaten sour grapes, And the children"s teeth are set on edge"? 3 "As I live," says the Lord God, "you shall no longer use this proverb in Israel. 4 "Behold, all souls are Mine; The soul of the father As well as the soul of the son is Mine; The soul who sins shall die." "But accepting Jesus is way easier than following the Law, " As I say nobody can chose Jesus, Jesus chooses the one who will believe. The law is required only for Jews. Many more people are considered righteous for the Jewish G-d, then the Christian god.
