Originally posted by spiritmangr8ness Well maybe it occurs to me that Moses had God's favor. Moses is the Law giver, because God gave the Law to Moses. Before then there was only the law of lesser gods and men! If men have to die in the scheme of God'd purpose then is it not a dangerous suppositon to think that his agent is a crinimal?
What you guys don't seem to grasp is that that god wasn't the god that your religion follows.

Why doesn't it bother you that mankind makes better internation law than the god of israel did.
Heck, at least we have an idea on what the word justice means: and it's not putting babies to the sword.
Originally posted by whodey Froggy, the Old Testament accounts of the conquest of the Holy Land are often attacked for being unjust just as you continuously banter about as being. However, do you know the history behind the Holy Land? Why not look at Wiki and learn yourself a thing or two?

Originally posted by spiritmangr8ness Not so, that's a blanket statement. Specifically are referencing the God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob?
That's the non-existing entity.That absurd creater god that creates and then picks a group to slaughter another group , for no apparent reason other than they wanted the land their victims lived on.

It appears as though the ...[text shortened]... w light of the justice of their actions in the reclaiming their rightful inheritance, no?

What about the eye for an eye law? Is this just? The Canaanites seemed to have done the same to their ancestors.

This is the same entity that called Abraham out of Ur. And subsequently destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. A place or society marked by evil, depravity, and promiscuousness, Sodomy a practice of a people who's crimes against humanity are pervasive and tend to destroy empires. Let's suppose for a moment that Sodom and Gomorrah's influence on society was just a glimpse into what surronding nations had become. The earth has always been a battle ground for the souls of men. These are the chronicles of the Sons of Light and the Sons of Darkness. Stop with the superstition!

Sodomy is a crime against humanity? Maybe Gomorrahry was, but they must of stamped that out since we have no clue to what it was.
No , but murdering all the male children in a city certainly is, and so is the rest of what Moses did to the Midianites.
