If we interpret the Bible as some of us are wont to do with the Gita, then Moses' genocidal actions must be at least compared to Arjuna's mass killings -- that is, they are spiritual tales meant to symbolize psychological battles fought. It's hard to think of an archer knocking down 10,000 arrows

[FairfieldLife] Re: blame it on Star Trek

The idea that Moses wrote the first five books of the Old Testament is something that only fundamentalists believe. I asked a fundamentalist once how Moses managed to write about his own death (last chapter of Deuteronomy). Needless to say, I didn't get a satisfactory answer. --- In FairfieldLife
