omg

the following quote from a "sacred" text should give us all pause the next time we hear someone pontificating about the superiority of the "judeo-christian" heritage. sorry guys, but it's high time we stopped blaming everything on islam and started sticking it to all the major western faiths. but yeah, that's right; we know a lot of people who practice those faiths. well, in that case, perhaps this passage can serve as a reminder to them that the bible is filled with violence and murder. it ain't all "turn the other cheek" folks.

“When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves.”
(Deuteronomy 7:1-220:10-17)
