You still didn't answer my question. What standard are you basing that
on? 

And the OT God is the same God of the NT. He is also the uncreated Creator
God. Since He created the universe and everything in it, then NO I don't
have an issue with how He chooses to run HIS creation. If that was the
way He decided, for whatever reason, then I respect that. If you were
to create something, I would respect your wishes as well.
