In 1914 the population of Palestine was 600,000 of which 94 % were Arab the dominate race for the previous couple thousand years there were 82,000 Christian Arabs and 59,000 Jews. The Zionist movement began in 1897's by Theodor Herzl. Herzl formed the Zionist Organization and promoted Jewish immigration to Palestine in an effort to form a Jewish state. Following the issue of the Balfour Declaration by the British a flood of immigrants into Palestine began in 11918-19 and in 1920 the first clashes began with the Arabs who were rightfully alarme that Palestine had been picked to be a national homeland for Jews.

For far too long priests and preachers have completely ignored the vicious criminal acts that the Bible promotes. The so called God of the Bible makes Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. This God, according to the Bible, is directly responsible for many mass-murders, rapes, pillage, plunder, slavery, child abuse and killing, not to mention the killing of unborn children. I have included references to the Biblical passages, so grab your Bible and follow along. It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said Thou shall not kill. For example, God kills 70,000 innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21).
God also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of all the living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and asses (Joshua 6). In Judges 21 He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and married. When they wanted more virgins, God told them to hide alongside the road and when they saw a girl they liked, kidnap her and forcibly rape her and make her your wife!


Just about every other page in the Old Testament has God killing somebody! In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their very own church! In total God kills 371,186 people directly and orders another 1,862,265 people murdered
The God of the Bible also allows slavery, including selling your own daughter as a sex slave (Exodus 21:1-11), child abuse (Judges 11:29-40 & Isaiah 13:16), and bashing babies against rocks (Hosea 13:16 & Psalms 137:9). This type of criminal behavior should shock any moral person.
Murder, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, and child abuse can not be justified by saying that some god says it’s OK. If more people would actually sit down and read the Bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself. Jesus also promoted the idea that all men should castrate themselves to go to heaven: For there are eunuchs, that were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are eunuchs, that were made eunuchs by men: and there are eunuchs, that made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it (Matthew 19:12). I don’t know why anyone would follow the teachings of someone who literally tells all men to cut off their privates.

The God of the Bible also was a big fan of ritual human sacrifice and animal sacrifice.
And just in case you are thinking that the evil and immoral laws of the Old Testament are no longer in effect, perhaps you should read where Jesus makes it perfectly clear: It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid (Luke 16:17). There are many more quotes on this topic at my Do Not Ignore the Old Testament web page.
I know that most Christians believe that God is a good and loving god, and wants people to do good things. I believe that most people want to do good things and behave morally. I also believe that many Christians haven’t really read the Bible, or just read certain passages in church. This is understandable, as the Bible is hard to read due to its archaic language and obscure references. Also many priests and preachers don’t like to read certain passages in the Bible because they present a message of hate not love.

To know the inspired Word, it helps, maybe even necessary to have the original Hebrew and Greek languages, to get to the root of it all.
All the different translations give varying meanings.
The King James with a concordance gives the ability to go to the original language.
Just the study of the word "Gentile/Ethnos" gives a good example.
The Catholic church even removed the Book of Enoch and the Book of Jasher, because it did not match their doctrine.
The Scofield Bible version may have an agenda behind it.

Joy, I don't know if you realize but you're making excuses for fear. Now, if you were defending the action of civilians, I would understand, but you're not. You're defending the actions of what you all seem to insists is one of the most effective and fearless military forces in the world... The amazing undefeated IDF that can stand up to anything... except (if one listens to you) the fear of Palestinian street kids with rocks and sticks.

Someone who knows how to use a sling can hurl a rock the size of a golf ball about 100-120 yards. The IDF uses the M24 Sniper System, with a range of 1500 yards. Think about that. Or, here... some perspective...



Those plumes of black smoke are from the tires to obscure the sniper line of sight as Palestinian kids brave the no-man zone to plant Palestinian flags and hurl rocks. Seriously, they may as well be beating their chests. It's the effectively the same thing.
