Doing What You Want

Sometimes one’s God is simply an excuse for doing what you want.  In the Hebrew Scriptures, after the Exodus from Egypt, and some forty years in the desert, the Hebrew tribes reached the land their God promised them.  Their God told the Hebrews to kill everyone in that land.  Really?  Kill everyone who is not a Hebrew, the Chosen Ones.  By and by, along come the Christians.  They believe that it is OK to kill the Hebrews, now known as the Jews.  Pagans get axed in both cases.  God switched from Chosen Ones to Christians.  No Islam yet.  Then along comes Islam.  Their God says to kill Christians and Jews.  Everyone does what they want, and then has a God who tells them to do it.  So far, I have not met this God.
