Progression. Build up. Not taking someone who's never gone running before on a full speed run when you're an Olympic runner and telling them to keep up. How a child learns to crawl, walk, then run. Leading people doesn't mean immediately jumping to the conclusion.

It professes and shows how God loved his people from the beginning, despite all the hardships that went on and the amount of times they turned their backs on him. People have always picked and chose, the Bible shows this and Jesus outright says that it's wrong many times. People suck, dude.If he always loved people, why did he kill so many innocents in the Old Testament?Some loving god.

Well, Sodom, Gomorrah
flooding the planet
Killing all the first born children of Egypt.

Right.The Commandments are given with the explicit point that they are impossible for any man to uphold without the help of God.

Judges 11:30-40 Jephthah killed his young daughter (his only child) by burning her alive as a burnt sacrifice to the lord for he commanded it.
Psalms 137:8-9 Prayer/song of vengeance “0 daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.”
Exodus 12:29 God killed, intentionally, every first-born child of every family in Egypt, simply because he was upset at the Pharaoh. And god caused the Pharaoh’s actions in the first place. Since when is it appropriate to murder children for their ruler’s forced action?
Exodus 20:9-10 God commands death for cursing out ones parents Joshua 8 God commanded the deaths of 12,000 men, women, and children of Ai. They were all slain in the ambush that was planned by god.
Isaiah 13:15-18 If God can find you, he will “thrust you through,” smash your children “to pieces” before your eyes, and rape your wife.
Jeremiah 11:22-23 God will kill the young men in war and starve their children to death.
That's a pretty broad generalization to make for let alone one city
To draw a parallel, Ra's Al Ghul wanted Gotham gone because of how corrupt it was disregarding the good people within it. So, you're saying that the death of innocents don't count because they're casualties?
Again, innocents don't count just because they're casualties? I seriously doubt Noah was the only good person living at the time.
So, the sins of the father are the sins of the son? That is equal to me finding a murderer and killing his kid in front of him to get him to stop killing.
"your source sucks so I'm gonna ignore this shit you don't know any context"Except I do, because I was subjected to this crap for like 5 years.
"it's okay for god to kill everyone because he knows they're all evil, even the babies and young children"mhm.
Humans have been wicked since our existence. The crusades, wars since forever, millions of women are raped in 3rd world countries every year, the list goes on.
I think it's absolutely disgusting you find nothing wrong with innocent infants because they had a skeptical leader. They had no choice or say in where they were born. It'd be no different than killing all kids in america because of a choice obama made. I'm gonna follow Sexy's advice and remove myself from this spectacle now.

I cried every day for a week. The implications were driving me insane.I did not choose it. You don't choose to believe, or to disbelieve.If there is a god, there is nothing he could have done to hurt me more.
