Terrorism in Bible - Psalms (Part 2)

Psalms:

68.23: “That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same.” Very blood thirsty to be spoken by God. It seems that God wants the ‘believers’ to behave like blood thirsty hounds.

78.21-34: God burns and kills several humans because they do not believe in his existence. (How can anyone accept an insecure personality as God? Do we need such a God?)

106.34: The Israelis did not destroy those nations that God had commanded to be destroyed. This is seen as a great sin. Is it a crime ‘not’ to destroy entire nations with their whole population? In this chapter, the worship of other Gods is also seen as a sin.

109.10: Not only is a man to die early because he is an enemy (a heathen) but his children should suffer as well. The reason: well, they are the children of an enemy; should there be any more reason?

110.6: God shall fill the lands with the bodies of heathens. It seems that being a heathen is a crime fit for death sentence. Knowing the various acts of God, we can safely conclude that this ‘cleansing process’ will also include the death of little children.

135.8: God is praised for having killed the firstborn children of Egyptians (whatever did those children do to God?) and also those of the beasts of Egyptians (well, perhaps God needs to be hounded by animal rights activists).

[135.5 – On a lighter note, this line says ‘our Lord is above all gods’. It seems Bible is not as ‘monotheistic’ as the Christians want us to believe. The Israelis had a God who they believed to be better than all the other Gods.]

Terrorism in Bible - Psalms (Part 1)

Psalms

2.8,9 – God promises the believers that He will make the heathens as slaves to the believers and enable the believers to destroy the heathens like a potter’s vessel.

21.9,10 – If God gets angry, he will not only kill you but also your children.

50.22 – If you forget God, God will tear you into pieces.

52.5,6 – If you do not believe in God, He will destroy you and the righteous will laugh at your destruction.

58.3 – Wicked people are wicked even from their birth. As soon as they are born, they go astray by speaking lies. (It gives a blanket cover all the atrocities committed by the believers upon the heathens. After all, all the heathens, including the children, are wicked from their birth.)

58.6-10: God shall break the teeth of the wicked (which includes the heathens), and cut them into pieces. The righteous will rejoice by washing their feet in the blood (what a lovely washing solution?!!).

59.5-8 – God shall kill all the heathens. The silly reasons for this sentence are: the heathens return at the evening, make noise like a dog and go around the city, belch out with their mouth etc. God shall laugh as He kills the heathens.

60.7,8 – God says “Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver; Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.” Wow! Certain lands belong to God as He likes them. He does not like some other lands and so He indulges in name calling and even proclaims that he will throw his shoe upon them. Is this God we are talking about or some pre-teen whiny kid or perhaps some ancient terrorist who had motives similar to Bin-Laden?
