As for the Canaanites, the Bible tells a slight different version "And they utterly destroyed

with the edge of the sword". (Joshua 6:21) I do not think all the Canaanites were in that city.
But the Israelite's did not listen to God as they did not kill all of the Canaanites......
Today, some people believe genocide was committed on the Canaanites and God is/was evil based upon this example.
Canaanites belief in child sacrifice, men having sex with boys and other 'perversions. That is why
Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. Some people say God did good, whereas others say he did bad. Figure it out, I can't. |
I suspect why so many people have animosity toward the Old
Testament might be because they never really studied it.
