Quote:How do you know God was being unjust? Do you have all the facts?The bible gave the justifications for his acts. Those justifications are not just.
Quote:I think you are wrong here. I think there are societies where fathers would do this. Furthermore, based on your own view of morality, your label of them as immoral and unjust only has meaning for you and those who think the way you do. It (your label of them as immoral and unjust) would be meaningless to those in the society which thinks those things are ok as they would just think you are crazy.There are these societies... and while this may be a moral of the society: that does not make it just.
Quote:I think you are wrong here again. Joshua, Chapter 2, tells of Rahab and her family which did have a chance to convert, did, and were then saved from the destruction. Why would you think it was any different for the rest?
Oh, one family? I see... save one family... destroy all the others. All of the others you created specifically to destroy, and the one family you created specifically to save. Or do you not think that he is omni_____?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
