>I think you've misunderstood. I don't think God is evil for neglecting to mention the cats. I think the author of the book of Exodus was writing a story about a place he'd never visited and consequently gave a very vague description. Human history is full of people who claim to have visited far-off lands and are caught out hundreds of years later because their whole story is incongruous with facts that are now common knowledge.

>If somebody claims something happened and refuses to furnish details, he is generally lying. Going back to my (perhaps overly elaborate) metaphor, would you believe a man who claimed that he'd been kidnapped and refused to tell you any details of the location beyond vague generalisations?

Omg! This! I hate how the bigoted church does not respect our different sexualities and demeans women by forcing them to wear a head scarf! Jesus did not teach this!

>“Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.””
(Genesis 19:4-5)

This harmless consensual encounter is portrayed negatively...

>“A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God;”
(1 Corinthians 11:7)

>“Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?”
(1 Corinthians 11:13)

>“Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or disputing. I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety”
(1 Timothy 2:8-9)

>“A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner.”
(1 Timothy 2:11-14)

>So if the minions served the "worst" people in history than it's basically guaranteed that they worked under Hitler at some point in time right? Like what did he think of them? I'm assuming given his character he would have genocided them on looks alone. Would he have an entire chapter on them in the sequel to Mein Kampf he never finished? Did they go serve Stalin instead and Pol Pot after him?
