CS Lewis said the Psalmists were "Homicidal and Fanatic"

you a retard for posting this nonsense. get a clue.

You fool He said this ya that is true however it was before he was born again He wasnt even a believer when he said this. Can you expect anything else from a non believer????

You are misguided. Are you guiding yourself? Most of these were prophetic in nature, pointing forward to the Righteousnes of Christ. Besides, The Spirit of God wrote the Bible - not men.
Man can be as perfect in his Sphere and God is in His.
Thank you for reading all those wonderful Psalms to me, however. I was blessed.

Do you people ever listen to yourselves. You interpret everything to fit your beliefs. The God described in the old testament is so obviously a ghastly being created by man in his own image.

I received your message and understand your point, though others here apparently do not. Lewis' faith was do wishy washy that only his fiction books are of any value. I really wish, though, that you would throw out that horrid bible version you are using and use the real word of God in English - the KJV - which doesn't say "stump of Jesse" as your bible does, but rightly says "root of Jesse", among many other things.

lol I like how you left of that "Redeem me part" :) THe apostles spoke about important matters.  It wasn't there job to explain certain things to us, but to be vessels for Christ. :l

Although, you are correct about many of the psalms being prophetically about Jesus. There are hundreds of prophecies concerning Jesus, and likely many of the psalms can be looked at with a view to the (then) future Messiah; and rightly, as even being spoken by him, although originally uttered by the psalmists, under divine inspiration.
