Okay, the accusations kept rolling in, even though they held no basis they were made!
Now prove that this is taken out of context!
This is why the bible is against true right and wrong but stead of being for is a poor thing to refer to as to being moral.
Numbers 31:7-18
New Living Translation (NLT)
7 They attacked Midian as the Lord had commanded Moses, and they killed all the men. 8 All five of the Midianite kings—Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba—died in the battle. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword.
9 Then the Israelite army captured the Midianite women and children and seized their cattle and flocks and all their wealth as plunder. 10 They burned all the towns and villages where the Midianites had lived. 11 After they had gathered the plunder and captives, both people and animals, 12 they brought them all to Moses and Eleazar the priest, and to the whole community of Israel, which was camped on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho. 13 Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp. 14 But Moses was furious with all the generals and captains[a] who had returned from the battle.
15 “Why have you let all the women live?” he demanded. 16 “These are the very ones who followed Balaam’s advice and caused the people of Israel to rebel against the Lord at Mount Peor. They are the ones who caused the plague to strike the Lord’s people. 17 So kill all the boys and all the women who have had intercourse with a man. 18 Only the young girls who are virgins may live; you may keep them for yourselves.
If you can't then you can't due to the reason that it is in fact NOT TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT!
Instead it is kept in context and it is an example of the basis that many judge the bible on!
Also, if you now see yourself in a corner, you are but to recognize the promotion and biblical advocacy for the sex slave trade. The ability to determine who is and isn't a virgin was not developed at this time and still does not always hold true as a hymen can be broken even while riding a bike. Anyhow, the only near sure way to tell who was and was not a virgin would be to take the youngest of the girls. So, it's simple, since sex with little boys would be deemed as homosexuality and the cultural thing of the time was all warriors were culturally men, it is quite clear what "take for yourself" implies. Also the necessity to preserve these females lives did indeed come as a necessity for their bloodline, in fact even the apologists mention that. Funny thing, when I was a christian, they tried to train me and everyone else in Sunday school to be apologists, even then I saw a bit of deception in it.
