Dunno, why don't you try both and get back with us?Think it tops burned at the stake?
Ok, stand still. I got a rope and some kerosene.Dunno, why don't you try both and get back with us?
what about them canaanites
Sure it was.
Constantine, who started the Catholic church, was not even a Christian. He still worshiped the pagan gods, even though it was rumored he converted on his death bed. This was a man who had his wife and son murdered, and all for political ambition.
He then created the Vatican which was a literal sovereign nation with a literal army and with a Pope that acted as emperor to all the kings in Europe. You then had all that follows, which is the politics of man for power over his fellow men. The evils of Inquisitions, Jewish ghettos and Crusades were just around the corner.
Conversely, Jesus said that his kingdom was not of this world, nor could be. In fact, when he gave the people food to eat with the miracle of the loaves of bread and fish, they tried to make him an earthly king, and he fled from them.
The OT also hammers this point home in 1 chapter 8 Samuel as the Hebrews demanded a human king. God warned them of the abuses if they continued to insist on one, but they would not listen. The next thing you know they were in the ovens of Nazi Germany.
Try again.
That was the Catholic church.
No one did that before or after their little love affair with world politics, and no where in scritpure was the condoned.
Considering our modern standards of morality, humane treatment of people and humans, justice and injustice, those unschooled in history don't realize how brutal and evil pretty much all the world was in past eras. No surprise that was not reflected in their religions as well.Neolithic women in Europe were tied up and buried alive in ritual sacrifices, study suggests
The research found evidence of the "incaprettamento" method of murder at 14 Neolithic sites in Europe.www.yahoo.com
The murder of sacrificial victims by "incaprettamento" — tying their neck to their legs bent behind their back, so that they effectively strangled themselves — seems to have been a tradition across much of Neolithic Europe, with a new study identifying more than a dozen such murders over more than 2,000 years.
The study comes after a reassessment of an ancient tomb that was discovered more than 20 years ago at Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux near Avignon, in southern France. The tomb mimics a silo, or pit where grain was stored, and it held the remains of three women who were buried there about 5,500 years ago.
The new study, published Wednesday (April 10) in the journal Science Advances, reinterprets the positions of two of the skeletons and suggests the individuals were deliberately killed — first by tying them up in the manner called "incaprettamento" and then by burying them while they were still alive, perhaps for an agricultural ritual.
The God of the Bible, in comparison, did not allow human sacrifice. Although he told Abraham to sacrifice his son, he stopped him, as if to say, I am not like the other pagan gods. This is not acceptable.
