"And Moses said to them: "Have you kept all the women alive? Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the LORD in the incident of PEOR, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately." Fabulous, lets point out all the ancient crap to excuse barbarism today? Religion causes most of the horrors of the world, so lets all get out our moldy old books and search diligently for reasons to excuse our murderous ways. That makes a whole lot of sense. Like most Christians, or most Jews, I am sure most Muslims are not nuts. OTOH the world will be far better off when we replace oil, and let Iraq, Iran and the Arab world slither back into obscurity. There is a great mistake thinking that all people want to live like North Americans. Some people like Camels and donkey carts, and we should allow them to live with them if they want.
