Evil Bible Quote of the Day for July 3 (Conquest, Murder, and Plunder) |
Evil Bible Quote of the Day for July 3, 2004 from www.EvilBible.com:
Conquest, Murder, and Plunder (Joshua 11:7-15 NLT)
"So Joshua and his warriors traveled to the water near Merom and
attacked suddenly. And the LORD gave them victory over their enemies. The
Israelites chased them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and
eastward into the valley of Mizpah, until not one enemy warrior was left
alive. Then Joshua crippled the horses and burned all the chariots, as the
LORD had instructed. Joshua then turned back and captured Hazor and killed
its king. (Hazor had at one time been the capital of the federation of all
these kingdoms.) The Israelites completely destroyed every living thing in
the city. Not a single person was spared. And then Joshua burned the city.
Joshua slaughtered all the other kings and their people, completely
destroying them, just as Moses, the servant of the LORD, had commanded.
However, Joshua did not burn any of the cities built on mounds except Hazor.
And the Israelites took all the captured goods and cattle of the ravaged
cities for themselves, but they killed all the people. As the LORD had
commanded his servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua. And Joshua did as
he was told, carefully obeying all of the LORD's instructions to Moses."
(Joshua 11:7-15 NLT)
What kind of person would get their moral guidance from an ancient book of
myths and magic that says it is OK to murder, rape, pillage, and plunder?

The kind of person who sincerely believes that their religion is the
only source of goodness in human behaviour, the kind of person who
thinks belief in such a God is the sole criterion of human value. The
kind of person who would use such beliefs to justify any actions
because such beliefs can justify any action. Coupled with the belief
that obedience to nonsense, known as faith, is a virtue and indeed the
supreme virtue, such people are highly dangerous, indeed far more
dangerous than regular psychopaths because these people get elected to
high office and get put in charge of schools.

Did you actually read my post? All of the words, even those past the
third sentence?

One small error here. Not "the kind of person who thinks . . . ."
Otherwise, right on the mark
