Not just human moral standards but universal moral standards which also apply to God if he is good. To assert that God is not subject to his laws is absurd and inane because a good and responsible God will also uphold the same morals He expects His creations to uphold. To do otherwise would be hypocrisy as logicboy rightly observed.

Look critically and objectively at the scenarios I presented. Would you tolerate such actions if it were a human ? Or indeed another deity such as Allah ? To defend such egregious actions which I have no doubt you would not commit if put in God's place tells me that it is your religious bias which blinds you to the immorality of such acts. Frankly speaking, it's nothing less than tragic.
dazzall!

Biblical morality takes massive amounts of special pleading from christians who insist that morality can only come from the Bible. They are very happy to follow some rules (shunning gay men) but not others (selling their daughters into slavery, stoning disobedient children, and eating shellfish) — even though the Bible(plus God), which they claim can be the only source of their moral decision making, is quite silent on what parts of it you can happily ignore.

What universal moral standards God is not human neither is he of this universe , so give me a good reason why He should be subject to the moral laws He gave to humans or inhabitants of this universe .

When God incarnated as Christ - he became subject to the laws of men . He lived a life of moral rectitude- devoid of sin . He already set the archetypal moral life with Christ . So what other example do you need ?

And what is being hypocritical in taking the life He gave them Do you think anyone good or bad deserves to live ? This life does not belong to us , its only God that gives and takes life because He only is worthy . We are His creation , He is the reason for our existence and whatever reason He chooses to obliterate his creation , it is utterly stupid to question Him let alone judge Him . undecided

The bible, the writer, the author, the chirstains and most importantly, Yahweh can, would and should never be a moral standard for any right thinking human being.

@ OP, the topic should have been "Yahweh(satan) is a moral failure", not THE CHRISTIAN GOD ALMIGHTY, because GOD ALMIGHTY ISN'T A PERSONAL GOD BUT THE GOD OF ALL.
God Almighty to whom we all belong isn't a moral failure. He is the Universe personified. He hasn't and wouldn't interfere in the affairs of living beings to the extent of doing all those things you ascribe. But I know a son of his called yahweh(so wicked and rebellious, evil, unforgiving, low in thinking faculty) who can do all these, yet people like Gboyee4fun, Jacksonville, 4evergod, Oarolaoye, Muafrika worship this MONSTER.

So OP, I'll plead with you to change the topic to "YAHWEH(SATAN) IS A MORAL FAILURE!" thanks.
