it is important to analyse every wording of the bible instead of
blindly following of what is written. it is not about karma.
God is really bloodthirsty to kill the firstborn of the
Egyptians. He did not follow the principle that he has set. He told
others to show mercy but yet he himself showed no mercy for
others.
I will return you and all christians a question. If this
loving god of yours turn his face against you and strike down your
loved ones, would you still love him?
Think about it.
if God becomes your enemy, will you still love him?
thus far, you have not shown that you have "analyzed" the bible
word for word before posting. from the article that i linked
earlier, the answer to your question can be easily found if you had
read the bible in context (you read it "word for word", leads you
to dubious conclusions as you already have. See the big picture).
Which is the problem with non believers in general, they read
the bible to find inconsistencies but end up embarassing themselves
because they hadn't read it in context. karma or not, i'll leave it
to your own conscience to determine whether this is really a good
exercise in building up good karma, because from this side, it
certainly doesn't look like good karma.
once again, read the article because obviously you haven't. The
author has addressed why God isn't bloodthirsty. (your karma seems
to have reduced again...)
your follow up question can be addressed by others in this
thread... i look forward to discuss about the related problem of
evil in the other thread on how evil originated. But i'll leave you
with a verse from 1 John 4:8, "Anyone
who does not love does not know God, because God is
love"
