(Remember that the Bible was written by humans and some of them might have found it convenient that God had told them to kill the non-believers so they could gather support for their war.)
127. Numbers 23:21 says that your god "has not seen wickedness in Israel." If this is so, explain why your god burned Israelites for complaining (Num 11:1).
(Possibly this was written by the christians in order to prevent questions being asked because then they would be burned for it.)
139. If even the contemplation of sinning is a sin (i.e. "sinning in your heart"; see, for example, Matthew 5:28) and if Jesus was tempted by Satan in the desert (Matthew 4:5-8, Luke 4:5-9), how can you say that Jesus was without sin?
(Jesus, even though he was the son of God(Even though I think he was just a normal person who said some clever stuff.), was a mortal, and all mortals are fallible, noone is perfect.)
35. Explain why prayer is OK, but spell casting is not, when both amount to the same thing: requesting that a superior supernatural force intercede in a way that would be impossible according to the normally accepted laws of physics.
(Prayer is asking the diety to do something while spellcasting is manipulating the supernatural force yourself.)
