Satan. I don't know anything about a bear killing children. I've read a book that had all the bible stories in it and don't remember anything about that second bit.
Oh, its in there. Some kids teased a bald man and God had some bears come and rip them to bits as punishment.

God was the abusive father-type who punished us for our own good and because we didn't follow his path for us.
Lucifer/Satan was booted out of heaven because he despised humans because he believed that God elevated us beyond our station. He wanted to take over heaven to put us back in our place. Hell is quite literally hell as he wants to capture our souls and give us eternal damnation and torture because he despises us.
So don't believe this hogwash that either is misunderstood.

Anyone who can put a talking snake in a tree, ogle naked people in a garden all day and then smite them when one of them does what the rather charismatic snake suggests - is a bit of a tit, let's be honest.
He could have created a whole second universe and put the precious apples in that, if they were so wonderful.
Also, dumping your kid on a random step-dad who pays for the upbringing, happens to be a carpenter and then killing your kid by nailing him to stuff, does seem to suggest a rather warped sense of humour.
Devil has all the fun in that novel. He's the true hero.
Given all the smiting and flooding and hurling of lightning bolts and turning to pillars of salt that occured in the bible, I'm gonna need convincing that this "god" chap is actually the good guy before I can consider the premise any further.

It's a shame Jezza wasn't around 2000 years ago. He gets Mary, Joseph and God on the show for a paternity test of little baby Jesus (who would be shown on the screen in the background, while the audience go "awwwwwwwww!"). God comes on and starts all that trash talk stuff, security step up to separate God and Joseph and instead of doing some argy-bargy God smites the entire studio. Best episode ever.

That is so Sodom and Gomorrah

It mustn't have had that in it then. I don't recognise that story.

:DOKAY:D
Well as a story it is one of the best things ever written. And it could make a magnificent film.
And it weren't pretty!
Only as long as they don't let Mel Gibson anywhere near it, oh no, hang on!:D
TBH I prefer Beowulf or some of the Greek myths, but fictionwise, each to their own:)
It's been done. Read "The Deathbird" by Harlan Ellison.
Try hieroglyphics. You might improve your chances.
That'll teach them.Some children need to learn some manners.
Think about it! it makes sense.
I'll have a look at it,but I reckon mine would be easier to make into a box office hit movie
Brilliant!
This!
There's no "what if" about it.
