I don't know where the post is, sure it could be found in the archives. However, it really wasn't any different than what we find in the Gita when Krishna tells Arjuna not to worry or feel remorse for all the people*HE* has condemned to die. The Swaroop contains visions of millions of people being devoured by Devas in gruesome manners. In the Bible, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob gives Moses and others instructions on how to conquer various peoples he has condemned as being unfit to occupy the land he has promised to the descendants of Abraham. Many, if not all of these groups, were people that worshiped deities through human/ infant sacrifice.BTW, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob also told the Jews that he would do the same to them if they ever *f*ed up, and He did, at least twice. The first time was around 500 BC when the Babylonians marched in, burned the temple and carted off the Jews as slaves and then again in 70 AD by the Romans.However the same deity also said that that land was for the descendants of Abraham (Jews) for eternity and he would always bring them back into the land at some point.

It could easily be downright bad. I have used Yahoo's search facility to no avail. does anyone know where this post is?Thanks.
