Then you need to prove your claim, we claim that the verses mean what they say through judgement, you claim something different the burden of proof belongs to you.
Yes, it is quite apparent that you believe that your god told the Israelites to kill the women and children of their enemies and to take a bunch of women as wives against their will. And that is exactly the kind of sociopathic belief system that has been used to justify the slaughter of human beings for 4,000 years. Congratulations.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
