Why does God play mean jokes on his children
Mean people play mean jokes on me.
They were lying to me.
They used me.

"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.”

Richard Dawkins knows not a thing about God. Very presumptuous for him to make any comment.

@Aliveshock Note that he said [i]fiction[/i]. Another author, Dan Barker, wrote a book " God: The Most Unpleasant Character in All Fiction" based on this quote. Barker was a former evangelist and knows the Bible inside out.
@BlueSkyKing
Richard starting off wrong is no credit to him as much as your summary is misplaced.
Barker is no authority on God though.Sad how some people can put on such a pretense to their own destruction.

@Aliveshock I don’t know who you think is better qualified, but Barker is an authority on the Bible. He also the head of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Wisconsin.

@BlueSkyKing Yes, this "god" is a really bad tempered bastard.

My focus was on your conclusion from someone that is without any clue of the supernatural.
The Holy Bible does explain the difference of Faith in Romans 9.
If you have any way to check it out I hope it explains why someone who has pretended to believe finds themselves in the position they are in.
My God is all loving and willing to welcome those who realize that they are without.
