I think you jumped into the middle. That was not about being bothered by what God does and doesn't do. It was about Howard's assertion that the Bible was written by God. Had the statement been that God inspired the bible, then I doubt you'd see the argument going quite the way it has. I'm trying to stay out of it as much as I can, but I just thought you might have missed the point of what was being argued by others.
