I believe so. I also believe that blaming God for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was nothing more than a way to explain a natural disaster. There is a perfectly natural explanation to what happened to the two cities, but people with little scientific knowledge blame it on God. Even today we see fundamentalists blaming natural events on the "wrath" of god.

God's instruction to Joshua was to clean out the land for His people. He wanted no one there who could influence the Jews to forsake Him.

And the Christians accuse Islam of being a violent religion? Look, there's something right off the bat in the Bible...taken freshy out of context. But verses from the Qu'ran are also taken out of context AND then scrutinized and critiqued, so, well there's a taste of your own medicine. (Nothing against the asker)

These were bad people. God gives you a life and He can take it away..and He will, sooner or later.

Use that a lot actually. "God made me do it."
