    What's that funny Watchtower quote again? "Everyone knows there are errors in the Bible" or something like that. I can't find it.

    A god who kills all the first born of a nation, because the King never listened to him

    A god who wipes out tribe after tribe for silly reasons.

    A god who commands "stoning to death" of a poor guy who picks up sticks on the Sabbath

    A God who Kills 70K people because David took a census

    A god who allowed his own son to be tortured and Killed in a Gory way.

    Why wont the same God accept a Human Burnt Offering ?.

    Why is God so stupid that he can't inspire books to be written that mean what he really means? It requires mental gymnastics to get to anything but the conclusion that Jephthah murdered his daughter. God sure is a poor communicator if he meant anything else while inspiring this writing and subsequent translations.

    I remember the horror of reading the account without apologist glasses on for the first time. Wow.
