good comments foolosophy.

yadda - it matters not if god had a reason to treat one group of people differently to another.
questioin is, did he treat people differently or not.

you have said "Yes he did.", then justified it.

"No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, not even in the tenth generation "

Deuteronomy 23:3

also treating one tribe/group of people differently to others.

Yeah, but the krauts signed that pact with the devil (The great Satanic convention of 1783, I think it was), so you can't really blame the deity for hating krauts.

Yeah true. I forgot about that.

Still wondering about this notion of God being an Anti Aryan atm ...

Can you blame him? Poor old front bottom... How much can an omni-benevolent world maker take?

ONE very big assumption is made here, that the nature of GOD in found in the biblical scriptures

I suspect that if a GOD really does exist then his or her or its nature would have absolutely NOTHING to do with anything HUMANS write down or think.

By definition anything we attempt to describe or encapsulate is a corrupt iconical approximation at best - including this very post

So ignore everything I have said or will say in the future

Amen (Foolosophy 46:5)

Well instead of doing nothing aside from stating the bleeding obvious... try doing something for a change... like help to bring the subject back on topic... sheesh.

Yes god treated different people differently and I believe a part of that reason is His recognition of other gods to which different people are beholden.

From the commandments themselves... God said, "Do not have any other gods before me." This is an acknowledgement that other gods exist, but that He is first amongst them, when it comes to the people of the covenant.
