If a city resists you, put them to the sword to the last man and woman, and dash their little ones against the rocks.
And what is this supposed to be?
Psalms
And you and Terry can both explain your way out of it, just like Muslims can explain their way out of passages in their book. No harm no foul.
I’m not explaining my way out of anything. I always love how atheists always go straight for the Old Testament to try and prove that “Christianity” is the same as Islam with regards for killing people for being unbelievers. I won’t dispute what the Old Testament says. Under the old covenant things were way different. I struggle myself with how harsh God was with people then. But then again, there were some vile human beings doing some very awful things. But I know how much love and grace God has for us or we wouldn’t be here. The world has largely turned its back on God. When Jesus Christ came and died and resurrected for ALL our sins he created the new covenant ( New Testament). The New Testament shows how much God loves us. And it says nothing about killing anyone. Quite the contrary. We are to pray for those that persecute us. We are to pray for our enemies. We are called to be at peace with everyone if possible. So when @TerryMiller says “not so in Christianity” , he ain’t lying. You are referring to the Old Testament which is NOT Christianity.
Is it Psalm 137?
No. That only says “happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks”.
