Personally, I find it sickening and beyond comprehension that these people would be going into cities and murdering every man, woman and child. Absolutely disgusting. I'd like to have seen them all killed...well, actually I guess that is what happened to them in the end. I would have been gathering up my tent and heading for the hills with these murderous, insane, blood-thirsty maniacs, with this Samuel the seer telling them who to kill next. There is always the possibility that half the garbage you read was written by men, savages, murderers. After all, God's 10 Commandments clearly stated, "Thou shall not kill," yet they killed constantly. So the possibility exist that these people were insane, evil liars and were slated for destruction-actually they were, as God told Moses He was going to destroy them, and that most of the tales in Samuel are tales written by insane fools, whom did not talk to God, but had become the tools of the devil.
