I'm just now learning about the old testament. Goddamn, what a violent fucking book it is. God killed a lot of people for looking sideways.

Extreme acts of violence could be found in the books of the Old Testament.

If you were a relatively small tribal society you either got wiped out absorbed or became migratory. For most of human history that pattern is recorded in the DNA. Persia then Rome were the first experiments in multi ethnic societies and it can be argued it didn't work out for them. While Judaism seems excessively ethnocentric it reflects the environment it developed in. Only powerful states could afford to be magnanimous towards diverse peoples. For tribal societies living on the margins of empires it was often kill or be killed.

Yes but you need to understand that before Jesus arrived this was the period of violence.
The New Testament allegedly changed all this, but, but, okay I get it!
