Although, I don't know what that has to do with the content of the post. Also I can't say that I am trying to impress you. If that were so I would not be talking about Jesus. I also know I personally can't convince you of anything that I say about God. You don't want to believe in Him so there I nothing I could do to make you change your mind. Your problem isn't that you don't have enough information it that you need a new heart. You know, since you studied it, that the word of God says you are dead in your sins and need to be brought from death to life. You are blind to the things of God and it is only through the Holy Spirit that you will understand the value of Christ's death on the Cross and your need to repent.
If the psalm was not the verses your were talking about would you please cite the verse you were speaking of and also do the same with the chariots so that we can be on the same page. That way you won't be reading things that don't pertain to what you spoke about and I won't be guessing about what you are talking about.
Lastly for now, just because people can't agree doesn't mean the Bible isn't true. I am in a study now where I am with christians for different denominations who view thing or interpret things differently than I do. It doesn't stop them from being christian because we agree on the essentials. It can't stop the truth from being true. It doesn't make divisions with me and them because we don't major on the minor element of the Bible.
This right here is a pretty extensive list of genocides in the Bible that Gaud either performs or commands, and I doubt it's all-inclusive. It even has the verses listed and linked so you can check them out yourself.
The one in Numbers is my favorite, as it contains the caveat that the Israelites must kill all the grown men, grown women, and male children, but they get to keep the young, virgin girls for themselves. Gee, I wonder what that was for.
My disbelief has nothing to do with what I want to believe and everything to do with what evidence there is. Unlike you, I can't just decide to believe something because I think it sounds nice or because I'm scared to die.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
