In the bible at 2Kings 3:21-27 the Israelites have gone out to attack the Moabites with allies. The Moabites think that the Israelites have already been in a fight because they see what they think is blood in the water, so they attack. They were wrong and the Israelites are kicking their butts all back across their land. The Moabite king tries to rally with 700 men but can not. So in verse 27 he kills his son as a burnt offering to his god and the Israelites in Indignation go away back home. So it looks as though if one kills his son or has a chariot he too can defeat the god of the Israelites.
Does God of the Israelites get his butt kicked!?? 2Kings 3:21-27

The real message: obey, obey, obey ... doesn't matter which god, all gods, any god. Doesn't matter what they want you to do - human sacrifice, it's all good. As long as you obey.
This message brought to you by the people claiming to speak for god.

The Mesha Stele speaks very harshly of Yahweh and Israel.
The putting of a son to death was normal procedure for aid from the gods then.. sadly...

The whole thing is intended to get people to submit to being enslaved, even attacking others who do not go along with it. This account is part of that, in that trickery is used to vanquish Gentile nations (which, obviously from this and every other account, joke-hova hate). It also has some counterintuitive instructions, a subliminal "Obey joke-hova and be blessed" message (as do most of these accounts). The hidden message is to obey joke-hova, even as that thing leads you to being enslaved and damned.
Why, with accounts like this, why the ADL doesn't get this damnation book banned is a good question. The LIE-ble is their own worst enemy--do you wish to be vanquished because you are not chosen by a god that wishes all things attractive gone from the universe?
