Christians, Please Stop Defending Genocide! by logicboy01: 12:19pm On Jun 26, 2012
You wouldnt want the USA to drop bombs in Northern Nigeria just because Boko Haram has ties with other terrorist entities, would you? Why do christians support the mass murder or annihilation of people in the bible for no other reason than just being themselves. An unjustified war is murder/genocide.

The reasons for the following murders is instruction from God;



Kill All of Babylon

"Go up, my warriors, against the land of Merathaim and against the people of Pekod. Yes, march against Babylon, the land of rebels, a land that I will judge! Pursue, kill, and completely destroy them, as I have commanded you," says the LORD. "Let the battle cry be heard in the land, a shout of great destruction". (Jeremiah 50:21-22 NLT)

Micah Kills a Whole Town
Then, with Micah's idols and his priest, the men of Dan came to the town of Laish, whose people were peaceful and secure. They attacked and killed all the people and burned the town to the ground. There was no one to rescue the residents of the town, for they lived a great distance from Sidon and had no allies nearby. This happened in the valley near Beth-rehob.Then the people of the tribe of Dan rebuilt the town and lived there. They renamed the town Dan after their ancestor, Israel's son, but it had originally been called Laish. (Judges 18:27-29 NLT) (Note that God approves of this slaughter in verse 6.


Killing at Jericho
When the people heard the sound of the horns, they shouted as loud as they could. Suddenly, the walls of Jericho collapsed, and the Israelites charged straight into the city from every side and captured it. They completely destroyed everything in it – men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep, donkeys – everything. (Joshua 6:20-21 NLT)


There are many more but I just chose few to keep this post short




Christians' false justifications for genocide

-The Hitler excuse;
"those people were evil"....."they deserved to die". This is the same argument used by Hitler against the Jews. Furthermore, there are always good and bad people in any society. Just because some people are immoral, it doesnt mean that we should kill EVERYONE in the society. Should the whole Northern Nigeria because of a few Boko Haram?

-The Nazi stormtrooper excuse;
"the Isrealites were just following orders from God".......Nazi soldiers on trial said thate they were only following orders from their Fuhrer!

-The omnipotent excuse;
"God can kill anyone". "God's morality can not be questioned". Really, would you accept if God kills all your family/friends? Why shouldnt he? You have been living in a corrupt and immoral country called Nigeria which has pagan origins. God flooded the whole world for less.

Yes, Jesus murdered himself because he was on a suicide mission. He knew of his impending betrayal and chose to go with it.


As for your obvious avoidance of the topic of genocide in the old testament, you are just a hypo.....
