I've shown you where the Bible condones genocide.

Condoned! Not condones. Why keep pretending you don't know that English has a present tense and a past tense?

I've shown you that this commandment to commit genocide is for all time.

On peoples who haven't existed for thousands of years. Unless you figure you're really an Amalekite and your parents never told you?

Can you show me where the Israelites are forbidden from committing genocide?

Number six of the ten commandments.

Do you condemn Saul and Samuel for committing genocide against Amalek?

Do you condemn Moses for his murder of women and children prisoners in Numbers 31?

How is something that happened thousands of years ago relevant to today? Shouldn't someone up in arms over the Amalekites be a little more upset about Hamas, Hezbollah, the Janjaweed, the Thai intifada - you know, things that are happening NOW?

------------------------------
Tell me something, how do you feel about God making us mortal beings? You don't like that anyone goes to hell or heaven. Why should we have to die at all? Isn't that "unjust" too? And why is there evil and suffering in the world? Doesn't the fact that children die in our world mean God is a monster?
