Let’s get this straight: according to the biblical narrative, a 600-year-old man built a giant wooden boat, wrangled up every species on Earth—kangaroos from Australia, polar bears from the Arctic, anacondas from the Amazon, termites (and somehow didn’t let them eat the boat), and even penguins waddling in from Antarctica—and got them all to live together peacefully for over a year… during a global flood.

There’s a verse in the Bible that’s so violent, so morally grotesque, it should make anyone with a conscience pause and ask: What kind of god is this?

That verse is 1 Samuel 15:3:

“Now go and strike Amalek and devote to destruction all that they have. Do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.”

Let that sink in:
Man. Woman. Child. Infant.
Even the livestock.

Let’s talk about one of the most eyebrow-raising verses in the New Testament:
“But women will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.” (1 Timothy 2:15, NIV)

So, in a book that otherwise insists salvation comes by faith alone—not works, not gender, not life circumstances—suddenly we’re told that a woman’s ticket to salvation is… having babies?

It doesn’t make sense. And here’s why.

Imagine a group of kids teasing a bald man on the street — and moments later, they’re being mauled to death by wild bears. Sounds like a dark fable or horror story, right? But this tale is straight from the Bible, in the book of 2 Kings. It raises uncomfortable questions about God’s nature, justice, and mercy — especially when children are involved.

God doesn’t care about gold. People do.

Genesis 1 presents a creation order that has shaped religious thought for millennia. But when read through a scientific lens, one detail stands out as problematic: the creation of plants before the sun.
