Steve, this should be 2 killings: one for the first group, another for the second.
And just to mention, this story was that I found no reason in it at all. Why this cruelity? Why the test of god? Why not going down after the test reached success? Why repeat? Why sending troops three times? 50 soldier in that time was enough to conquer a city, dammit!
Yeah, you're right, twillight. It should be two killings. But the two are so similar that I decided to treat them as one, because I didn't want to have to tell the story twice in two posts.
But I suppose I could call them God's 86th and 87th killings.
If any of you feel strongly about it, let me know.
So... I'm guessing Elijah, despite being a hairy and dirty old man who lives in the wilderness, is proud enough to have soldiers grovel before him before he can come down from his hill.
Whatever the hell happened to "pride goeth before a fall"?
Just to let you know, if I'd been the third captain I'd have had my archers shoot that bastard prophet & saved myself & my king a lot of trouble.
Hilarious.
Sorry to be a pain, but I think you really should at least label it god's 86th and 87th killing.
No need to do it another post tho', for sure.
I'm with twilight on this one: this should be counted as two seperate killings.
OK, I've made it two killings.
Damn, it's a tough job being God's scorekeeper!
I bet it is, but humanity is grateful to you...
Once you've finished, done 'god approved' killings, get through the Koran, you can turn to...
Yahweh's animal killings !
That would truly be a lifetime's work.
