I would have to agree with both Tia Lanbert '13 and Mary Gellerman '13 viewpoints, they shared on their blogs. God does seem to be like "a parent scolding their child, and then rewarding the child with a cookie," and "God could have been a little less demeanding," However, at the time that this book was written, the God of the Old Testament was very angry and not very patient as the God of the New Testament, therefore, the God of the Old Testament, is percieved as harsh, cruel, and very un-loving at many points.
