“There is nothing in either savage or civilized history that is more utterly complete, more remorselessly sweeping than the Father of Mercy´s campaign among the Midianites. The official report deals only in masses, all the virgins, all the men, all the babies. all ´creatures that breathe,´ all houses. all cities. It gives you just one vast picture ...as far as the eye can reach, of charred ruins and storm-swept desolation... Would you expect this same conscienceless God, this moral bankrupt, to become a teacher of morals, of gentleness, of meekness, of righteousness, of purity?” MenGivingEyeFatherHouseDealsCitiesMoralTeacherHe ManBabyCreaturesMassMercyStormBreatheCampaignsRuinsOfficialsPurityJust OneReportsCivilizedRighteousnessSavagesVirginsGentlenessSweepingDesolationMeekness Author:Mark Twain
