You’re not anti-evil. You’re anti-God.
What's the appropriate response to people who sometimes use babies as sacrifice? I know. Let's kill ALL their babies. That will stop it.

No loving God would give such an order.

Did their 7-year-olds?

The 78-year-old grannies? How evil were they?

Your "reasoning" is just as primitive and barbaric as the anonymous dudes who scribbled your holy book.

There is no thinking or reasoning going on, just knee-jerk defense of what jimmie thinks is his God's actions.

[6] Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;

You God haters can't win, so you're throwing temper tantrums like a two-year old who doesn't get its way. It's a pitiful sight to see. When I was in the world, there was a song that I remember that is applicable to God haters.

Pretty much sums it up. Peace

That is NOT what scripture says and you know it. You are unwilling to look at what was really happening. These people were pure evil.

The Cannanites were an evil people, beyond anything we know.

I remind you, Jesus spoke about the days of Noah and the destruction of evil people. He warned His listeners.

The problem is, people are so attached to the flesh, that they can't see the purpose behind turning such a one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh that the SPIRIT MIGHT BE SAVED. The flesh is as grass that withers and dies, but the spirit of man is eternal. So they ascribe evil to what is really G-d's mercy, because His ways are not our ways, His ways are much higher than our ways. Peace

The other side of the coin, which so few seem to think about is what the vicious acts do to the prople who perform them.
