- I read this quote from a book on sociobiology:
-
- Advice of Moses:
-
- "they slew all the males.... Now therefore kill every male among
- the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
- But all the women children, that hath not known a man by lying with him,
- keep alive for yourselves."
- Numbers, 31

- Maybe not exactly what you were looking for, but in the ballpark. Moses
- was a pretty nasty dude.
