"You and Eleazar the priest and the family heads of the community are to count all the people and animals that were captured. 27 Divide the spoils between the soldiers who took part in the battle and the rest of the community. 28 From the soldiers who fought in the battle, set apart as tribute for the LORD one out of every five hundred, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep or goats. 29 Take this tribute from their half share and give it to Eleazar the priest as the LORD's part. "

Yikes! The "spoils" (women and donkeys) are divided between the soldiers and the altar. OUCH!

The bible is full of rape, genocide, and primitive sacrifice--culminating in the "Lamb of God" human sacrifice. Barbaric and ignorant. You ought to be so ashamed...
