>From Genesis alone:

Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, is "defiled" by a man who seems to love her
dearly. Her brothers trick all of the men of the town and kill them (after
first having them all circumcised), and then take their wives and children
captive. 34:1-31  (Murder, robbery, and Slavery)

These verses clearly show that the mass murder of innocent children by God
was premeditated. 11:4-6 (see 12:29-30)  (murder)

God sets down the rules regarding Hebrew slaves. You can buy one, but you
must set him free on the seventh year. But if you have "given" him a wife
and she bears children, then you get to keep the wife and kids. If he
refuses to leave his family when his seven years are up, then bore a hole
though his ear and keep him forever. (That sounds fair!) 21:2-6  (slavery)

How to sell your daughter -- and what to do if she fails to please her new
master. 21:7-8 (slavery and worse)

It's OK with God if you slowly beat your slaves to death. After all, they
are your money. 21:20-21

If a man has sex with an engaged slave woman, scourge the woman, but don't
punish the man. (Even if he raped her?) 19:20-22

Both parties in adultery shall be executed. 20:10

Homosexuals must be executed. 20:13

If your brother, son, daughter, wife, or friend tries to get you to worship
another god, "thou shalt surely kill him, thine hand shall be first upon him
to put him to death." If Bible-believers followed this one, they would have
to kill many of their own family and friends. 13:6-10

If a man rapes an unbetrothed virgin, he must pay her father 50 shekels of
silver and then marry her. 22:28-29

If a man dies before his wife has a child, then the widow must marry her
husband's brother -- whether she likes him or not, and whether she wants to
or not. 25:5

What book should we move on to next?

So, are you saying that the average JW is told to read the bible rather than
the Watchtower or consult an elder of the church? Remember that my
Sister-in-law is a JW before painting yourself into a corner.
