[Serious]When you boil it down, what's the most fucked up story of the Bible, old or new testament?

1. 2 Kings 2:23 - 24, or the don't fuck with bald guy's story “And [Elisha] went up from there to Bethel. While he was on his way, young juveniles came out from the city and mocked him, saying, ‘Go up, bald-head! Go up, bald-head!’ When he turned back and saw them, he cursed them in the name of YHWH. Then two female bears came out from the forest and mauled forty two of those juveniles." What. The. Fuck. Bit of a disproportionate reaction there, baldy.

3. I think the Tower of Babel story is pretty messed up. When I was taught it in church, it was greatly expanded past what is in the Bible. I was told that the people were building a tower to escape future floods. They wanted to have power over God by making it impossible for him to punish them. That is why God had to destroy the tower. (I was later told that they were actually building a portal to heaven with the help of the Nephilim) Most of the story I was told is not actually in the Bible. The whole story is only nine verses(Gen 11:1-9). Here is what is in the Bible. * Everyone on Earth had one language and they all decided to move to the same place. * The people learned how to make bricks and decided to make a tower to the heavens. Their stated reason for building a tall tower is so that they don’t get scattered and can live as one community. * God sees this and says “If the people are all speaking one language, they will be able to do anything. We must stop them.” * God confuses their language, scattering them across the Earth. The point of the story is pretty obvious. It is just the story of how language was created and why there are many groups of people. Still, it is kind of fucked up. God saw that humans were capable of anything and purposefully made them unable to communicate. It’s not like they were planning on doing something bad. They just wanted to build a big tower and all live together. Plus, God purposefully made people unable to communicate. This means God is the reason we have so much war and violence in the world (since according to the story, he is also the reason people scattered and made different groups). I think that is pretty fucked up, especially compared to the story I was told as a kid.

5. Judges 4:21 Jael kills Sisera: But Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and seized a hammer in her hand, and went secretly to him and drove the peg into his temple, and it went through into the ground; for he was sound asleep and exhausted. So he died.

7. Book of Ezekiel: two sisters... 23 2 “Son of man, there were two women, daughters of the same mother. 3 They became prostitutes in Egypt, engaging in prostitution from their youth. In that land their breasts were fondled and their virgin bosoms caressed... 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

8. Noah's Ark. God was fed up that some of his own creations weren't doing what he wanted, so he sent a flood to kill every man, woman, child, unborn child, animal, and plant on the entire planet, with the exception of the Ark occupants.

10. The story that frightened me the most when I was a kid was Abraham getting commanded by Yahweh to kill his only son. And he was going to do it. I used to worry that my own mother never got commanded by god to do the same to me.

11. 1 Kings 3:16-28 Solomon Makes a Difficult Decision 16 One day two women[a] came to King Solomon, 17 and one of them said: Your Majesty, this woman and I live in the same house. Not long ago my baby was born at home, 18 and three days later her baby was born. Nobody else was there with us. 19 One night while we were all asleep, she rolled over on her baby, and he died. 20 Then while I was still asleep, she got up and took my son out of my bed. She put him in her bed, then she put her dead baby next to me. 21 In the morning when I got up to feed my son, I saw that he was dead. But when I looked at him in the light, I knew he wasn’t my son. 22 “No!” the other woman shouted. “He was your son. My baby is alive!” “The dead baby is yours,” the first woman yelled. “Mine is alive!” They argued back and forth in front of Solomon, 23 until finally he said, “Both of you say this live baby is yours. 24 Someone bring me a sword.” A sword was brought, and Solomon ordered, 25 “Cut the baby in half! That way each of you can have part of him.” 26 “Please don’t kill my son,” the baby’s mother screamed. “Your Majesty, I love him very much, but give him to her. Just don’t kill him.” The other woman shouted, “Go ahead and cut him in half. Then neither of us will have the baby.” 27 Solomon said, “Don’t kill the baby.” Then he pointed to the first woman, “She is his real mother. Give the baby to her.” 28 Everyone in Israel was amazed when they heard how Solomon had made his decision. They realized that God had given him wisdom to judge fairly.

12. The story of the early Jews is the period of transition from the Age of Taurus to the Age of Aires. When Moses was up getting the 10 Commandants all but the Levites got concerned about being abandoned by the "new" God and got together, made a golden calf idol, got naked and danced around worshiping the "old" God. When Moses got back and saw what was happening he pretty much freaked, ordered to Levites to strap on their swords become a death squad and run through the camp and "slay every man his brother, and every man his companion and every man his neighbor". Exodus 32:26. Pretty harsh for a God who just handed down the commandments, one of which was "You shall not kill". I'm guessing Moses hadn't read all the way to number 6 before that.
