    These were not unbelievers. They were Jews who were breaking the law as commanded by God. Moses didn't set out on some ethnic cleansing here. He was putting a group of law breaking Jews to death for breaking the law.

    This is entirely different from a Muslim who is forcing his will on non-believers through terror. It isn't even a logical comparrison.

    i equate this action with what happens to souls after death. in both cases god is separating the wheat from the chaff.

    Well, the law was laid down to Moses on the stone tablets, right? But when Moses returned with the tablets to see what was happening in the camp, he broke the tablets. So how could the people that he killed know what the law was? Seems kind of crappy that they were killed for a law that only Moses knew about at that point.

    Call it whatever you want, but killing people who feel differently than you do is murder, regardless of who orders it.

    How is this not a logical comparison?

    Belief that muslim god commands you to kill unbelievers = Belief that christian god commands you to kill unbelievers. I don't see any difference whatsoever, and there is certainly no difference in the logic behind it.

    I do. I can't for the life of me figure out why people like worshiping this guy. He created life just so that he could have the majority of them suffer eternally for the sin of two people? If he is omnipotent, he would know that would be the consequence of him creating man. So logically then you could say that the main purpose of creating man was to have them suffer, or to have them grovel. What kind of being is this?

    And then he wants to guilt us into loving him by performing some dog and pony show involving his son who supposedly did something great by dying for us, but didn't really die because he came back to life and got to go back to heaven.

    The more you look at it with a critical eye, the less sense it makes. I just wish that Christians would stop pretending that their god is a loving, forgiving one. Belief in a mythical sky wizard is one thing, but purposefully covering up his evil nature is another. The good god that most religions worship is not even close to the god portrayed in the bible.

    Those executed were not un-believers. They were Jews who were breaking the Jewish law. They were punished for breaking the law they were subject to.
