Summary

This quote expresses a discontentment with the idea of a God who condemns people based on who they love, yet grants salvation to those who engage in brutal warfare. The individual disputes the notion that such a deity is the same one they know or desire to worship. It suggests a rejection of a God that values violence over love and advocates for a God whose principles align with compassion, acceptance, and justice.
