If the God of the Bible exists, he is necessarily a God of morals and all your arguments fail.

Not at all. The case can easily be made that the God of the Bible does immoral things.

If he asked me to kill my kids or commit genocide (as he does of human pawns in the Bible), I would tell him to shove a lighting bolt up into his nether regions.

It’s not my purpose to make you angry.

And I think you know very well the likely emotional reaction your comments would have on a Christian.

In in our attempts to find truth we won’t let ourselves be sidetracked by petty interpersonal exchanges.

If we accept the reality of his existence, God is both the creator of the universe and the moral law giver. In comparison to his level of greatness, human accusations against God don’t really register on any scale that I can perceive. At the very least, it doesn’t make logical sense think he has the same accountability we have. Further, the Biblical understanding of God is that he is sinless. In light of these things, we should honor and worship God.
