Oh c'mon. Are you so blinded by your faith that you are can't see how immoral that sounds? How can an ENTIRE nation (like the Amalekites, for one example) right down to the infants -- not to mention their domsticated livestock -- be considered so wicked to warrant death, simply because *their leader* has displeased your god by resisting the Hebrew invasion of their lands? You are attempting to morally defend genocide here.

The people had a chance to leave the nation before it was destroyed, there are examples of this.

You mean like how Jews had the chance to leave Germany before the Nazis started hunting them?

Why are you changing topics, but no not like Germany, the example I talk about is where the person leaves their nation and joins Israel.

Really? How is an infant or a donkey supposed to know they have a chance to leave?

If God knew that they wouldn't become wicked in later life he would have let them live. I am talking about babies.

...and its this kind of reasoning that leads many non-believers to call Christianity amoral (and even immoral). You merely are creating (again) another ad hoc defense of a Biblical story that contains nothing to support that defense. Biblical genocide is okay to Christianity because they ASSUME God only kills those worthy of death. That, is objectively an immoral position to hold, and makes the ancient Hebrews (and their god) the moral equivalent of Hitler, Stalin, or Pol Pot (all of which used the exact same reasoning to defend their immoral acts).
