As for your take on in-group and out-group ... it's laughable. You're basically saying that your god can have his people do monstrous acts to those who are not "part of his flock" as long as they treat eachother ok.Wait, where the hell did you get the idea that I believed in God? Just because I pointed out that you gave a bad example of a contradiction doesn't mean I believe. And, incidentally, with the in-group, out-group thing, I'm not justifying shit. I'm just explaining what happened in that time, and, to a lesser extent, even now.
Gimme a goddamn break!!
We are the compartmentalising animal, and the Israelites are no exception.
I think it's ok to rape your sister ... but it would be completely wrong to rape my own. Tell me biblical scholar, how is that not a contradiction? Especially if you go around telling people that I am a just, righteous, and fair person at all times. It's a contradiction - and I've got a shit ton more of them.
(sorry about the oversight on your religious beliefs ... I saw the word preacher)

You are a rediculous little ding dong aren't you.

It doesn't say god was out shooting billiards and having some down time with an angel pal!! It says he rested!!
This is what I'm talking about ... D E L U S I O N A L.
In any other argument a rebuttal like this would be laughed out of the debate. It's just purely greasy semantics. Why do I even bother.
