Why I Stopped Worshiping God Part 1 - His Laws are Immoral

Date: 03/04/2024

I was once a believer in God but one who only knew what was preached to me from the pulpit. When I started reading the Bible myself,  I came across Biblical immorality that I quite frankly did not want to be associated with.

So I stopped worshiping God and chose the Universal Declaration Of Human Rights as my moral compass. However, whenever I tell people I am now an atheist, they often ask why. This is why:

1st Reason I Stopped Worshiping God
I REFUSE to Compromise my Moral Values by: 
Praising and Worshiping a God with such Immoral Laws 

1) Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day is to be put to death. 
Bible: Exodus 31:15 / Exodus 31:12-18

2) A woman who is not a virgin on her wedding day shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 22:21 / Deuteronomy 22:13-21

3) If a person is found to be worshipping other gods, take the man or woman who has done this evil deed to your city gate and stone that person to death. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 17:5 / Deuteronomy 17:2-7

4) If a man rapes a married woman in town and she didn’t/couldn’t scream for help, take both of them to the gate of that town and stone them to death. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 22:24 / Deuteronomy 22:23-27

5) If a man has sexual relations with a man, they are to be put to death.
Leviticus 20:13

6) If a man rapes an unmarried woman, he shall pay her father dowry, marry the rape victim and never divorce her for as long as he lives. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 22:28-29


2nd Reason I Stopped Worshiping God
I REFUSE to Compromise my Moral Values by: 
Praising and Worshiping a God who uses the cannibalism of children by their parents as a form of punishment. 

1) Then in my anger I will be hostile toward you, and I myself will punish you for your sins seven times over. You will eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters. 
Bible: Leviticus 26:28-29 (NIV)

2) If you do not carefully follow all the words of this law, which are written in this book, you will eat the fruit of the womb, the flesh of the sons and daughters. Even the gentlest mother will eat the flesh of her babies. 
Deuteronomy 28:53-58 (NIV)

3) I will make them eat the flesh of their sons and daughters, and they will eat one another’s flesh because their enemies will press the siege so hard against them to destroy them. 
Bible: Jeremiah 19:9 (NIV)

4) Look, Lord, and consider: Whom have you ever treated like this? Should women eat their offspring, the children they have cared for? Should priest and prophet be killed in the sanctuary of the Lord? 
Bible: Lamentations 2:20 (NIV)


3rd Reason I Stopped Worshiping God
I REFUSE to Compromise my Moral Values by: 
Praising and Worshiping a God who orders colonization and genocide.

1) Totally destroy seven nations, the native inhabitants of the “Promised Land”. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy. Break down their places of worship and burn their idols. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 7:1-7 (NIV)

2) Enslave the cities outside the Promised Land. Offer them peace in the form of slavery. If they resist, kill all the men and take the women, children, livestock and everything else in the city as plunder. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 20:10-15 (NIV)

However, in the cities of the nations the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Completely destroy them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the LORD your God has commanded you. Bible: Deuteronomy 20:16-17 (NIV)

4th Reason I Stopped Worshiping God
I REFUSE to Compromise my Moral Values by: 
Praising and Worshiping a God who orders the enslavement of people.

1) Enslave the cities outside the Promised Land. Offer them peace in the form of slavery. If they resist, kill all the men and take the women, children, livestock and everything else in the city as plunder. 
Bible: Deuteronomy 20:10-15 (NIV)

2) Don’t make fellow Israelites slaves. Your slaves should be non-Israelites from the nations around you. 
Bible: Leviticus 25:39-46 (NIV)


5th Reason I Stopped Worshiping God
I REFUSE to Compromise my Moral Values by: 
Praising and Worshiping a God who orders discrimination against women.

1) Women should remain silent in the churches. It is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.
Bible: 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 (NIV) 

2) I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. Bible: 1 Timothy 2:11-15 (NIV) 

3) A man is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. She should cover her head. 
Bible: 1 Corinthians 11:1-9

Are these the moral values you support as a believer in God?

If you lived in the age of slavery, would you condemn the practice or would you join in to be socially acceptable?
