Hmm... have you actually "read" the scriptures yourself? If you had, you wouldn't be asking for a direct link to the passage where Jews were commanded to destroy everyone living in the promised land. They didn't do it, and they were "punished" for it. So, the scripture speaks of faithfulness to God through the extermination of "unbelievers" from within their community. This is the Old Testament. But what about the New Testament? On one hand, it says "love one another," but on the other, it says "the world lies in wickedness." If "the world lies in wickedness," then it is not part of God, who cannot be evil by definition. So how can one love one another in a world that "lies in wickedness"? As for orgies, ritual sacrifices, and the killing of enemies, if you look at history, there is plenty of this "goodness" in Christianity as well. I would like to point out that Christians were persecuted by pagans for these very human sacrifices, according to Roman historians, i.e., pagans believed that Christians drank the blood of infants, and this was unacceptable to them! You'll say it's slander? Yes, it's slander, so why not assume that the orgies, sacrifices, and other abominations attributed to pagans are also slander? You can read about the so-called "devil's everyday work" in the writings of the Apostle Peter, who says that "the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour." Interestingly, where does he walk? In what dimensions? Perhaps it is a metaphor, and the devil is the dark side of a person's soul? His base passions and delusions? It is simply very convenient to talk about "temptations," attributing one's own mistakes to an outside person, supposedly inciting them to commit these mistakes. That is, there is a cunning self-justification in this, which carries the risk that a person will not learn from their mistakes, but will become even more wary of the world, looking for the machinations of this very "outside person."
