Oh yeah, I forgot to kill the cutie's family too. So, if I plead the god thing, I can get away with murder, kidnapping and rape.
As to god raising the bar, how about not going into the town and slaughtering everyone in the first place? If god's chosen ones are killing, raping and pillaging, just what in the hell did the townsfolk on the receiving end do to justify their own eradication? Apparently it was not killing, raping, and pillaging.
Is not adultery one of the sins? I expect that a good portion of the rapists were also adulterers and if they then married the poor raped girl, are they now not bigamists also?
We can drag this out to a multitude of sins all condoned, even commanded, by the evil warlord of the bible.

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
