Dear All,
Do you not understand what the author is trying to tell you???
It was a divine anger from Molech that drove the attacking Israelite army 
away!
There are real gods out there, they have real powers.
The sacrifice was effective!
YHWH's power evidently ended at the Jordan.
Read the words!
Try to realize that this is not a 21st century book.
This is an ancient text, have some respect for its author.
Don't make him conform to your beliefs.
