@Andytheantiathiest Even if it was a prophecy (not a command) and the prophecy stated that the enemies of the Edomites (presumably the Israelites) would rejoice while they smashed Edomite babies against rocks, it is STILL AN EVIL ACT! 99% of the time, the morals of modern 21st Century Man are superior to any you can find in the Bible. That’s a fact!

@TomVodkaCollins Well the bible says killing babies should make you happy.
-
@caseybv74 Then something's gone very wrong in your head and society should be protected from you...with extreme prejudice.

@knowone11111 well if being courteous to others even when they do not in return, and helping those who are struggling sends me to hell, I dont think I want to meet god. if he detests those kinds of actions, he is a massive twat.
by the way, im agnostic. before you starting with the whole "oh he's an athiest, he cant believe in love" shit that always gets spouted my way by religious followers.
-
@Andytheantiathiest: if you believe in God, practice love.

if you knew the history of this passage you'd know the Psalmist is talking about the Edomites who sacrificed thier own children to the false god baal in hopes of receiving good harvests. they were a nation that practiced mindless brutality as a way of life. Deuteronomy Ch 12:31
@kooler2004 I don't mean to be intrusive on this conversation, but I have to say something here. There is absolutely NO actual context in which I would find "dashing the little ones on the stones" to be anything but psychotic and deranged. That's just disgusting...unless they were zombies. If they were zombie babies then smash away.

@kooler2004, you are one demented individual. ("Whats sickening about children going to hell they are sinners just like every lost person ... what makes them exempt from what is rightly given to evil doers?") No one deserves ETERNAL torture for FINITE "crimes." NO ONE.
If you were a judge in a courtroom, you would apparently sentence pickpockets with the same sentence as murderers: torture, until the victim expires.
Good thing your god is imaginary.
