Challenge: God Is Worse than Hitler
Here���s another challenge from ���40 Problems with Christianity���:
Hitler sent Jews to the concentration camps and gas chambers for no reason other than their ethnic identity. This was a temporal punishment; it sometimes lasted only a few days. God, on the other hand, is prepared to send good, well-accomplished, and generous people to a place of everlasting punishment and torture for the crime of not believing in something for which no credible evidence exists. The God of the Bible is, in effect, worse than Hitler.
I can see three distinct ideas that need to be responded to in this challenge. Can you identify them? Tell us what they are and how you would respond to them in the comments below, and see Brett���s video response to this challenge on Thursday.
