this thread is designed to spread the vicious truth about the bible. for far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the bible promote. the so called “God” of the bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a boy scout. this "God" , according to the bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuses and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children. i have included references to the biblical passages, so grab your bible and follow along
.
it always amazes me how many times this "god" orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said “Thou shall not kill”. for example, "god " kills 70,000 innocent people because david ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21). "god" also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the israelites can live there. he orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). he order another attack and the killing of “all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses” (Joshua 6). in Judges 21, he orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. when they wanted more virgins, "god told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife! Just about every other page in the Old Testament has "god" killing somebody! in 2 Kings 10:18-27, "god " orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! in total "god " kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered.
the god of the bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 and Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9).
this type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person. murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK. if more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself.
jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven: "for there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother's womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it." (Matthew 19:12 ASV) i don't know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates
.
the "god " of the bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice.
and just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the old testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where jesus makes it perfectly clear: "it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid." (Luke 16:17 NAB)
i know that most christians believe that "god " is a good and loving "god ", and wants people to do good things. i believe that most people want to do good things and behave morally. i also believe that many christians haven’t really read the Bible, or just read certain passages in church. this is understandable, as the bible is hard to read due to its archaic language and obscure references. also many priests and preachers don’t like to read certain passages in the bible because they present a message of hate not love.
if you follow this thread you will learn about all the nasty things in the bible that are usually not talked about by priests and preachers. please enjoy this thread and hope you wont have nightmare
