If "God" chose your Christian town as his "special people," and commanded you to go to a neighboring town of Atheists and rip their little ones to pieces before their eyes, then thrust threw every man, woman, child, and goat, would you do it? What if he told you to keep all the virgins for yourselves as sex slaves? That is what he asked of his "chosen people" in the Old Testament, and they complied! Would you?

Don't forget to harvest their foreskins (those that have them). That's a sure road to popularity.

As an Atheist I'd probably seek out a medical diagnosis if I started hearing orders from god, but yes, I am familiar with that scripture. You left out the part about piling all the plunder and burning it, then burning the town to the ground and that ground must remain barren forever and never rebuilt upon. (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)

This is actually very frightening. Isn't this how Stalin or Hugo Chavez got started? This Obamassieh is rolling trick dice. Obamassieh is being the great distractor, so he can get bills (his agenda) passed in the dark of night. This is also Chicago Style politics. What's left of honest trustworthy representatives, after they get back from their August break, will be strong-armed by the Community Organizer in Chief. Never-mind the constituents, the house and senate are afraid of crossing big O.

Only if I were allowed to keep the goats as sex slaves instead of the women.
