How can anyone believe this is a Holy God? |
Numbers:31:6: And Moses sent them to the war, a thousand of every tribe,
them and Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, to the war, with the holy
instruments, and the trumpets to blow in his hand.
7: And they warred against the Midianites, as the LORD commanded Moses; and
they slew all the males.
8: And they slew the kings of Midian, beside the rest of them that were
slain; namely, Evi, and Rekem, and Zur, and Hur, and Reba, five kings of
Midian: Balaam also the son of Beor they slew with the sword.
9: And the children of Israel took all the women of Midian captives, and
their little ones, and took the spoil of all their cattle, and all their
flocks, and all their goods.
10: And they burnt all their cities wherein they dwelt, and all their goodly
castles, with fire.
11: And they took all the spoil, and all the prey, both of men and of
beasts.
12: And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses,
and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel,
unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho.
13: And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the
congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp.
14: And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains
over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle.
15: And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive?
16: Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of
Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there
was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.
17: Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every
woman that hath known man by lying with him.
18: But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him,
keep alive for yourselves.
Rape, pillage and plunder! Just as we read in Joshua:6:21.
Now just imagine being a little girl and haing watched these evil men
slaughter your father, your mother, your brothers, your sisters, they are
now forced to live like captives with the murderers of their families agains
their will, all the whole having to listen to their ***** about how holy
they are and that they are God's people.
I would kill myself.

Would you rather they received the tender ministrations of, say,
Tiglath-Pileser III, or Alexander at Gaza?

Some Qur'an quotes: 5:20 qaala muusaa 5:21 "yaa qawmi ´dkhuluu ´l-'arDa
´l-muqaddasata ´llatii kataba ´llaahu lakum" 17:104 waqulnaa ... libanii
'israa'iila "´skunuu ´l-'arDa" || In English: Moses said, "My people,
go into the Holy Land which God has assigned to you!" And we said to the
Children of Israel, "Inhabit the land!" http://symbolictruth.fateback.com/

It just depends on which side you're on doesn't it. The Wrong seek to do the
same things or worse to the Right today and don't even think twice about it.
Some war is just and death and imperfect justice are inseparable from it.
Reality, rude or not remains,
