Example:16. God demands you kill your wife and children for worshiping other gods.
In Deuteronomy 13:6-10, God commands that you must kill your wife, children, brother, and friend if they worship other gods.
So the Bible acknowledges that there is more than one God? How interesting.
I never read about Buddhist or Hindu killing others in the name of their religion. Perhaps they know something the Western religions should be learning.
More sane explanation is that the guy who wrote this wanted his 'God' to be followed, or else. It is all about controlling people. Always
was. We see this in Christianity/Islam/Judaism today.
Another example that there is no God, never was.
Why would Gods not settle this between themselves, i.e. kill each other to have one winner. Like a 'God's Super bowl'
Why involve people in their narcissistic need for worship? Because it is not God that wants to be worshiped but people who want to control other people need 'their God' to be worshiped.
Give
me a break. Why people are so stupid not to see this con?
