Deuteronomy 21:18
This is a perfect example of how little most "Christians" know and understand their holy book.
How many posted that the Bible doesn't say that?
Funny, even after I posted the exact passage, people still insist that the bible doesn't say it. How ignorant people must be of their own holy book.
It isn't easy for them to accept that their "God" would have held such an opinion. Only if it is in regards to gay people could god have been so hateful and hurtful....

Not to be nitpicky, but the actual mention of stoning children appears in the 21st verse (Deut 21:21). Just in case someone just goes to the 18th verse and says it's not there. And if you don't have a Bible, check out this link:

....i dont think god did that...maybe you're confusing god with another character. When i was in Christian School, and i studied the bible, i didnt see anything in which god ordered the stoning of children. Maybe something historic? Something outside of the bible, in history. Like the pope commanding to do so under the excuse of them being "unholy" and/or "sinful". But not the god. Not that i know of. Maybe there is and i dont know...

I have never seen that verse in the Bible however, I have seen where God's wrath was kindled and all perished for example the flood in Genesis, children were alive then and also when He gave the command to kill all the Amalekites and not to leave anybody alive even the animals.

Deuteronomy 21:18 is correct if this is what you meant exactly. It is there and listen, no matter what man says trust the Inspired word of God. People are people and they live more in the flesh than the Spirit so love them anyway. That's considered a part of your "reasonable service".

Deuteronomy 21:18
Most people dont know this because they are afraid to read thir bible, and almost all the preachers on TV only say what people want to hear.
