["Thou shalt not kill." What does God do in the Bible?]
*Thou*, not *I* - God was telling *us* what to do; what makes you think he was also binding Himself?

"THOU SHALT DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO."
Well, at that same level of reasoning, we shouldn't follow the bible, because god didn't say "Simon says".
Hey and here's what God DID command! (These are the real 10 commandments)
You're forgetting one important thing, guys: I'm up here and omnipotent, you're down there and mortal. Care to continue questioning me, fuckers? I've got the lightning bolts right here. I do whatever the hell I want. I'm God, bitch!

'Hypocrite'. 'Do as I say, not as I do'. Ever hear of these? Which means that once God tells us not to do something as heinous as kill another human being, then HE has to be held up to his OWN moral standards. Consider this, jim_w:

Satan is a paragon of morality & self-control in comparison to God. And I've never killed anyone in my life, nor do I want to. Ergo, I'm superior to God.
QED.
Ah, so your god as a leader imposes rules on others which "he" is not subject to himself.
Well, that explains why the Christian fanatics are so tolerant of corruption, incompetence and hypocrisy among the big names of the GOP. The GOP politicians remind them of their god.
God didnt often kill personally, he told others to do it. Find the bible passage that sayd "kill them all, men, eomen, children and livestock but keep some nubile virgins for yourselves. Lock them in a basement for 30 days until they forget your butchery and then have wild sex with all you can handle."
more or less
