Why does the Bible Exist?

Have you ever enjoyed oral sex? And if not, have you ever had oral sex?

So the answer is yes. Does that make you perverse?

Really? What, like thinking genecide can be acceptable under certain conditions?

I'm not "God." The context of Numbers 31 is "God" and not Man giving the direction.

Have I ever sinned?

So this loving being of light of which you speak directed a guy to kill innocent children, pregnant mothers, and to rape young girls because it was the only solution to the problem of Israeli men chasing after Midianite tail? That sounds like some pretty perverse reasoning there. I can't imaging an evil entity doing any different . . . well, maybe except for some swear words throw in as it commanded Moses to commit genocide.

Perversion can be a state of mind.

No, the question is: have you been perverse?

Yes, that has fact has been established when the issue of committing genocide in the name of the loving god was discussed. But to clarify, murdering innocent human beings because some of your homies chased some foreign tail is the height of perversion.

I see this differently. You seem to think man can justify his atrocities because "God" appears to have done the same?

I don't see the difference.

What? Where did I say that atrocities such as the ones committed by Moses is justified?

You've enjoyed oral sex. So how are you different from others who have done the same?

I think you're missing the point. At least you seem to be evading it.

No. What's happening here is that you are evading the truth of the fact that a guy named Moses obeyed the voice in his head that told him to murder an entire people . . . except for the virgin girls. You're having trouble reconciling this truth because you can't hold two ideas at the same time. You want to believe that the god is good, but you're forced to acknowledge that it ordered murder and rape. That's quite a conflict.
