One thing i just can't get over in the bible is the way god commands his people to slaughter every man, woman and child when they take a town. [Spirituality & Religion]

As christians, how do you feel about this Does it make you uncomfortable?
Do you just try not to think about it?
Or do you think it's a good thing to kill women and children ( i guess minus the ones you decide to keep for yourself).

It’s interesting that you should ask this question of people lived thousands and thousands of years ago. Atheists of the last century and this century have no compunction of slaughtering thousands of women and children. Just read the life of Mao or Stalin or Pol Pot.

It's not a defense of bad behaviour to point to someone else also behaving badly.
You're not a 6 year old so don't make the arguments of a 6 year old, mmkay?🙂👍
