God Or Satan More Evil?

Here's one for you.
In the Bible texts, the evil Satan is acknowledged to have killed 10 people while the loving God killed a total of 10,000,000 including 7.5 million men, women and children in a great flood.
So if God was the one with the larger taste for blood, why is it Satan is the bad guy?

Good question!

Some of the tales in the Bible really are quite ethically screwed, when you think about them.

I bet he had his fingers crossed when he dictated that 'Thou shall not kill' commandment.

You could argue God is responsible for all deaths were made mortal.

I got 2.5m in the Bible from my Reverend neighbour (don't ask me how he knew but he knew it) and Googled something like 'How many were killed by God in the Floods' and found the 7.5 million figure.

God doesn't kill. He only liberates the souls. Whatever we are learning in this life is actually God is learning, in this way He is experiencing what we are experiencing. Later, we will get another body to continue the learning. This cycle is eternal.
