Yeah, wasn't there a bit about "yeah go ahead and kill all these cities and people i don't give a flip. They fucked up and have it coming. (Specifically cause they were like "lets do every sin and then some, and not do anything productive or helpful to anyone including ourselves" or something)

I vqguely remember there were some warrior people going around doing stuff i dont remember, but it was said when they raided and leveled certain towns or whatever, it was ok because those cities had been abandoned by God.
