A despot, similar to the leader of North Korea. You will either agree with him and obey his every whim or you will be tortured for eternity. (While he claims that he loves you)
Assuming God is a duality, psychologists would diagnose God as schizophrenia.
Is schizophrenia a duality? I thought is was basically dreaming while awake, hence the hallucinations. I knew a schizo once and that's what he did.
I would say God has delusions of grandiose.
By the way, if a potter made a bad pot through his own incompetence, then in anger wants to destroy that pot for being bad, I'd say that pot has the right to bring in a shrink!

No. I really don't. I've never claimed that. God has given his Word though, and you have the same access to it that anyone else does.
Either way, you believe to know the mind of the Christian God, without any evidence to support such an extraordinary claim. That's delusional and dangerous.

Nonetheless you believe that all humans deserve to be killed, unless they convert to your religion. Just like the Muslim extremists.
Well, that would be my first impulse. But then I settled on Paranoid Schizophrenic.
God dreams up all these humans that only he can see. And he has crazed fears that make him hurt people because of irrational fear of betrayal. Follow these laws that make no sense, or you're a sinner and you must be my enemy.
And bipolar/borderline, since we have these odd destructive tantrums, and addition to sunshine and rainbows. Antisocial doesn't really work for someone who isn't an absolute sadist.
I'll leave this between you and god, but let me ask you this. As apparently you are a properly educated and experienced judger of all kinds of people and spiritual beings.
What is then a person that goes to school, spends years on special education, takes board exems, then goes to work and starts treating patients, charging anywhere between $140 to several thousand an hour or does some fancy shmancy research in a specialty that no one knows what its subject actually is?
What might that specialty be? Well, dear, that's human psyche, actually. No matter what you think, believe, or want to hear - NO ONE knows what human psyche is.
What would be your judgement on that person then?
Either way, you believe to know the mind of the Christian God, without any evidence to support such an extraordinary claim. That's delusional and dangerous.
Except the Words he has given us.

Every human being deserves hell. It's up to God to determine when we each die and when we will be judged. The ones that trust Christ will not get what they deserve, but will instead go to Heaven.
That is different from a Muslim extremist who tries to expedite the process.
If you brought a psychologist to study God, how would God be diagnosed?
Don't use the easy cop-out "I don't believe in God", answer anyway, based on what you know.
A psychopath!
