Yeah, we all know about unchanging God changing the rules as he went along.
Feel free to give a quote from one of these Bible scholars at any time regarding sexual law in the OT.
American religion being so over-the-top is why religion can't get kept out of politics, it's too important in too many people's lives. Outside of Bill Maher's show, I haven't seen any TV news outlet call Barton's comments out for being in re ed, and that's because religious fanaticism is par for the course in America.
Soooooo, did Westboro picket last night's game or not? If so, did anyone counter-picket?
Cool story, bro.
Nah, your argument is just weak.I have elaborated plenty, and you chose to ignore them. In fact, all you are doing is ignore every thing that does not agree with your view points. I mean, at least Blake and DoK chose to actually read some of the comments written.
Whine, whine, whine. The Bible does not prohibit the beating of slaves. You are wrong. Period.I have written out explanations specific to your questions once (the punishment segment), and you chose to ignore. It is therefore reasonable for me to say that whatever else I wrote to you will simply be ignored from this point on, so there is no point in me wasting time.
You are lazy because your entire argument is just, "Look at the context!" I already proved you wrong on your claim that the Bible prohibits the beating of slaves.And finally, I find it hypocritical for you say that me and spursncowboys are lazy (especially when I came up with specific examples and explanations of explaining your questions) when you refused to look up or spend any reasonable time to understand the things you are criticizing against. Streams and streams of content is available online (though not all correct). You just type in the topic of discussion in google, keep and open mind, and read it.
I didn't twist any words around.EDIT: BTW, you have serious comprehension issues, and the amazing ability to twist words around to suit your own arguments. Perhaps before reading the Bible, you address that issue first.
Kill unruly children = Kill unruly children.
Kill sexuals = Kill sexuals.
Kill non-believers = Kill non-believers.
No amount of your lazy rationalizations will change that.
Nothing gets past you.
They did but I doubt Monster1776 followed through on his threats.
it is more like.... "let's get rid of the people who won't procreate"
It's not about changing the rules, it's about the maturity of the religion as a whole.
Not sure how it was lazy. Funny thing is, you pull up that logical and objective card, and yet you are one of the least logical and objective person in this thread. Pretty much a religious fanatic version of an atheist. In other words, you are the person you claim to hate.
Anything with the word "West" in their name is bag
Westbrick
Westboro
Well they could have simply kicked them out of the community.
No, God clearly calls sexuality an abomination. The word abomination is actually used. It's right there for even the non-Bible scholar to see.
If it's not God changing the rules, then it's Christians trying to by claiming silly things like "context"
Oh, so you did go eye for an eye.......using a witty sex act even!
Well done, Christian!
I'm glad to know somebody did something. Those people are so hateful the are the an hesis of Christianity.
That peaceful protest against Westboro really taught them not to mess with Oklahoma!
I apologize, I don't know how things are done in Texas, but we don't tend to shoot the mentally ill on sight in the streets.
What is wrong with that? sexuality has not been accepted until recent times, and no, Christians and most religious organizations still do not condone sexuality.
I am not exactly sure what this is about, because breaking it down logically, if a Christian was the read that phrase, it wouldn't offend, because most Christians do no agree with sexuality, if a non-believer read that phrase, it's not a big deal because s/he doesn't believe in the Bible anyways.
This pretty much, I don't agree with sexuality and don't think it's what was meant for us as a species. But if someone is a sexual and they truly feel that is their iden y then I'm not going to think any less of them or tell them they're a horrible person and going to .
Matthew 7:1-5
“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you. Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.
This kind of reminds me of what I'm going through with my car dealership. The A/C in my car is losing refrigerant and the dealership cannot figure out why. Their exact words "We cannot prove that its a warranty issue therefore you are liable for the charges". That's funny, you cannot prove that its not a warranty issue either. Why am I getting the shaft?
Back to the topic. Prove to me that he doesn't exist and I will become an atheist just like yourself.
They are attention seekers. An besides, the BIBLE says there will be many that say unto god. "Ive cast out devils in your name". An God shall say "Flee from me I do not know thee".
Nice attempt to shift the burden of proof, but when you have to resort to asking your opponents to prove the negative, you've lost the argument....
So when you said you were going to show them southern hospitality, you really meant it.
My bad.
