What's wrong the the "old" testament?

The "psychotic" 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



"Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered."
"Yahweh is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
-David
