Does Jewish tradition say anything about stealing little black children from the poor in a foreign country?



Slightly ...

Exodus 21:16
And s/he who steals a person ... if this person is found in her/his possession, s/he shall surely be put to death.

Though I cannot retrieve the texts from memory and though, like all things in Judaism, there is disagreement on its application and meaning, there are admonitions against forcing a non-Jew into Jewish culture.

Unlike Christianity and Islam, you do not need to be a practitioner of Judaism to achieve salvation. The Rambam teaches that a Jew will be judged against a yardstick of 613 commandments. A non-Jew, only 7. [These 7, which are also part of the 613, were agreed to by Noah].

So it deemed wrong to assign a person this added burden that they did not inherit or choose of their own free will.



So it's something like this?

Gozer the Traveller will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldronaii the Traveller came as a very large and moving Torb. Then of course in the third reconciliation of the last of the Meketrex supplicants they chose a new form for him, that of a Sloar. Many Shubs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Sloar that day I can tell you.
