How about in the Book of Judges when a traveler finds that his concubine has been sexually violated by a bunch of men, and so this traveler tears the woman into pieces and distributes the pieces.
Or how about what I would consider to be a pivotal Bible passage, known by some as Two Bellies One Spear,
Numbers 25: 6 -13
At this a certain Israelite came and brought in a Midianite woman* to his kindred in the view of Moses and of the whole Israelite community, while they were weeping at the entrance of the tent of meeting.
7
e When Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw this, he rose up from the assembly, and taking a spear in his hand,
8
followed the Israelite into the tent where he pierced the two of them, the Israelite and the woman. Thus the plague upon the Israelites was checked;
9
but the dead from the plague were twenty-four thousand.
10
Then the LORD said to Moses:
11
Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned my anger from the Israelites by his being as jealous among them as I am; that is why I did not put an end to the Israelites in my jealousy.*
12
f Announce, therefore, that I hereby give him my covenant of peace,*
13
which shall be for him and for his descendants after him the covenant of an everlasting priesthood, because he was jealous on behalf of his God and thus made expiation for the Israelites.
The implication is that Phinehas speared the two of them while they were fucking. In some other translations this is more clear.
Also, in this translation they are using Jealousy. Usually it is Zeal. Zeal is not used in the Bible before or after, until we come to Paul.. Paul is making a direct reference to this passage.
Most Muslims just want a better life for their families and themselves. Here where I live there are often some places favored for kneeling down to pray facing Mecca, like in public libraries.
It is when people are denied political and economic justice that they are likely to turn to religious fundamentalism, be it Islamic or Christian, and be it in the Middle East or in the United States of America.
