Yes well, I can see how you think that's silly. After all, you'll get on your high-horse and tell me not to judge people with lifestyles I disagree with. Hmm... But what I think you've failed to grasp is actually that I don't have a vested interest in judging others at all, that's for God to do not I. Yet here you are, clearly this is someone deserving of your judgement, you feel you have the right to do so, from a place of moral supremacy.
Ummm, yeah, I do have "moral supremacy" over the guy who raped and murdered his own child. I don't think any rational person is going to argue that point. Furthermore, your god has no right to judge anyone based on their morality. Your god holds the all-time title for most atrocities committed by anyone - ever.
Quote:Yes, his sins could be forgiven - of course. But if it was up to me he would spend life without parole in gaol, or face the death penalty - that's the debt I believe he owes to society. But that fact doesn't mean he can't or shouldn't come to God, after all Moses was a murderer and he was accepted by God and made a prophet of God.
So? Your god's punishments and mercy are so arbitrary throughout the bible that it doesn't mean jack shit. God forgave King David for adultery and murder without so much as a slap on the wrist. Who did he punish for his sins? David's son. A child who was completely innocent of those actions. And did your god forgive the 42 little children who's great crime was mocking a prophet? Nope. He sent bears to maul them to death. Did he forgive Adam and Eve for eating a lousy piece of fruit? Nope, he condemned all of mankind for it, and later even drowned the entire planet. Oh but wait, when Moses murders a neighbor, god thinks, "hey, that's my kinda guy ... wanna be a prophet?"
Pull your head out of your butt and realize that they're fictional characters you dolt. Hansel and Gretel felt justified in burning a witch alive ...... doesn't mean I'm going to use their story as some kind of guide for my REAL life.
