So how come 'god' stayed quiet while "Jephthah" was lighting the fire? Apparently, as with "Abraham" your god thinks this shit is humorous but at least he stopped that one at the last moment.
"Silence breeds consent" is the legal maxim. Your sky-daddy sat there and watched it happen when all he had to do was say "put the fire out, idiot".
That makes him guilty.
I with u Minimalist... In (jud 11:40) it says, "the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament =(To express grief for or about; mourn: lament a death) the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year." We cannot believe that the entire nation turned out to mourn and weep over a single girl being subject to a harmless vow. And Jephthah is listed among the heroes of faith in Hebrews 11:32.. go figure!!
