How can you say that? Judging by what you have posted in this thread, I am definitely more moral than you.
It appears you judge the morality of an action on personal gain.
No. For Canaanites, they should not. They should all be killed. Everything burnt.
Did the 6th Commandment say Thou shalt not kill unless martial law? No! It says THOU SHALT NOT KILL! No if and's or but's.Very simple. The situation is different. One is civil law and one is martial law.
Yes, I think I have read them all. Yes, most of them are logical.
Want to give a shot?

Do you agree?

Lets start from the beginning;
Day 1 God created light and separated light from darkness
Day 2 God created firmament (whatever that is) and separated sky from sea
Day 3 God separated water from land and created plants and trees on the land
Day 4 God created stars, planet, moon and the sun.
Day 5 & 6 he created animals and Humans. Etc. and at the end of each day it says; and the even and the morning it was the first day, second day, third day, etc. But because we now know the Earth is round; what we call evening is when the Earth rotates to a position where the Sun is no longer visible from where you are standing. What we call morning is when the Sun becomes visible from where you are standing. Thus It is impossible to have an evening or a morning without the Sun!
So how can you have an evening and morning for the first 3 days when the Sun wasnt even created until the 4th day? Sounds illogical to me!
How about Joanah? How can a man sit in the belly of a whale for 3 days without any air supply? Did he hold his breath for 3 days? Sounds illogical to me!
How about Noah? The problem with this story is the guy who made this stuff up listed the actual size of the Boat/Ark. Any engineer will tell you that even with todays technology, even using modern pressure treated wood it is impossible to build a boat of that size made completely out of wood without any steel reinforcements and still float. So how could this primitive man do this and not only float but house all those animals? Sounds illogical to me!
What about Joshua? During battle as long as his hands were raised towards heaven the sun would not set and they would win the war. So he had 2 of his soldiers hold his hands up and the Sun stopped in the sky, refrained from setting and they were able to win the war. Problem with this story is, we now know the Sun does not rotate around the Earth (as they thought back then) what we call the movement of the Sun is actually a result of the Earth rotating and in order to stop the Sun from setting, you would have to stop the Earth from rotating.
Currently the Earth rotates approx 10,000 mph. Can you imagine the damage momentum would cause if at 10,000 mph the Earth came to a screeching halt? Everything would immediately be propelled at 10,000 mph and nobody would survive let alone fight a war. Sounds illogical to me.
Dont get me wrong, its cool if you wanna believe this stuff I aint tryin ta take that away from you; just dont expect others to believe they are logical; its all about faith.

Please explain how it is possible to have day without the sun or any other type of star.Now, briefly address the scientific possibility of your examples:
Having Day and Night without the Sun: Not only completely possible but is true.
What does that mean?Noah's Ark: I read engineering approval, but not engineering disproval.
You want specifics? Wood isnt stable enough for such a large vessle; it flexes too much. For something that big you need steel or at least steel reinforcementsYou need to be more specifically than just say it is not possible. I say that it is not only possible, but is excellently designed.
How is it scientifically possible for the planet to come to a screetching halt from over 10,000 mph without damage from momentum? Please explain.Jona's fish: I would tentatively classify this one as a miracle.
Josuah's long day: it is still a scientific possibility. But is difficult to prove by today's knowledge.
I would like that. Please provide scientific and engineering details on each of the above examples I gave.If you like to talk about the science/engineering details on any items above, we can certainly do that.
Maybe you need to read that 6th commandment again. It says nothing about war, it says "thou shalt not kill" that's it! It doesn't leave room for negotation.No.
At Moses' time, thou shall not kill, unless God calls you to war.

So a God who can't obey his own commandments expects everyone else to?Yes it does, if God says so.
God says: go up and fight, then you forget the 6th commendment.
I we are talking about evening and morning; not just light.OK, we take it one at a time.
There is light in our universe before the formation of stars. Do you accept (understand) that?

You have more on something you don't know what it is?
We're not just talking about fighting, we're talking about rape and murder. Are the 10 Commandments to be obeyed only when convient? Is it okay to put them aside when things get a little difficult.God guides and protects. He never forsakes.
When you are in real danger, He will tell you: Go up and fight.
That is the God we trust.
So explain how it is possible to have a morning and evening without the Sun.Yes, evening and morning depend on the existence of light.

You're the one implying that if 9/11 causes the USA to become the undisputed world leader for another 200 years, it may have been worth it.
Like I said, you seem to use the televangelist model of moral judgement: "If I profit, it's moral."
