God is pretty brutal though. Especially in the old testament, God killed or had people kill others a whole lot of the time. There's lots of war and violence in the Bible. God would destroy entire cities, the entire population of the earth except for Noah's family. It's pretty brutal to kill an entire civilization, you can't really say it's not I think.
Then, God sent his son Jesus to save us, but in order to do so, Jesus had to be sacrificed and killed. So, God sent Jesus to Earth knowing that He/Trinitarian They would have to die. It's pretty brutal to have to have someone be killed and sacrificed in order to save us all. Regardless of one's own relationship with Christianity and God, you can't deny that some key aspects of the religion contain some pretty brutal stuff.
