Is killing a Pastor always a bad thing?

[The Reality Salesman01]

Wow...what a terribly obtuse and narrow minded perspective. Its mind numbing how little it takes for some of you theists to pacify yourselves with the blatant absurdities of the bible. Absolutely mind numbing. You can't be much older than a child, tell me you don't have kids of your own. How old are you? 12?13?

They had a very strict punishment for homosexual sex (technically adultery).
And no matter how hard I look, I can't find any homosexuals actually being stoned to death under Mosaic Law.

Deterrence - much better than having to deal with the aftermath of immorality/evil/crime/sin.

That has to be one of the most retarded justifications for injustice I've ever heard.

There are no "atheist causes" that I'm aware of.
Atheists don't subscribe to a list of specific tenets. You've been here longer than I have,so it should be clear to you by now how very different atheists are from one another aside from lacking belief.

Atheists are very different you say?
Great!
I shall here and wait till one happens along who thinks its OK for the Old Testament Israelites to run their society according to the moral code in question.

I think this is fsdt material.

Oh I totally thought so too, but I thought I'd give them benefit of the doubt that they were posting the most ridiculous fucking thing I've ever heard (excluding all of Ronedees posts), as a joke or something..

Do you honestly think that makes things better?

I'll meet you half way, please bring your Bible, I can show you every answer you just asked for, but not on here, if you're really interested you'll take me up on this.

Please don't underestimate my ability to comprehend your knowledge, GC. It is clear that you think me to be a slow learner, but don't underestimate my ability to comprehend what you have to share. You are certainly wiser than me with regards to that which is holy.

Teach me. Show me your proof that your standard of Holiness is correct. If it is something that can be understood and recognized as either Holy or Un-holy, there is a way for you to convey it to me without driving to meet me in person. I am in the military and it would be impossible for me to do so (Unless you happen to be near Virginia Beach).

I'll try to find a way for you to explain holiness to me. If you asked me to explain to you which division of number is even, I could say that it is any number that could be split into equal parts. Conversely, odd is any number that cannot, no?

Tell me which division of things is holy? I have a Bible, but without knowing your standard I am just as vulnerable to measuring the holiness of my interpretation incorrectly. Don't think me incapable of understanding through your post.


Tell me, because if anybody knows this, it is surely you. Does God approve it because it's holy, or is it Holy because it gets approved by God?


I defer to you on these matters. You are the one with the knowledge, please don't leave here without sharing it with me. Rescue me from my ignorance.

Don't feel bad Texas, GC here thinks everyone's a slow learner. Then ignores valid points for fun. Or maybe its just that he's a slow learner.

Everyone who disagrees with him, anyway. That's the trick here; he just browbeats anyone who offers a challenge, rather than actually addressing the contention. It's a slick version of an ad hominem attack, really.
