It's true - and it's also true that the Christian god Jehovah killed, had killed or commanded his people to kill those Jews who converted from Judaism to other religions. That is such an issue that it's the first of the ten commandments - Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

BTW apart from killing those who convert, god also kills people just for believing in a different religion or god. I can't even paste the number of times this happened, coz the list would be too long.

So Pebbles, tafadhali ease up on the hypocrisy and first address the exact same question to your religion and to your god - "Is it true, could it possibly be true, that what I read is what the BIBLE teaches; to kill those JEWS who convert to other religions?"
