Luke 17:1 Yeshua said to his talmidim, “It is impossible that snares will not be set. But woe to the person who sets them! 2 It would be to his advantage that he have a millstone hung around his neck and he be thrown into the sea, rather than that he ensnare one of these little ones.
Mark 9:42 Whoever ensnares one of these little ones who trust me — it would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and be thrown in the sea.
Isaiah 13:11 “I will punish the world for its evil
and the wicked for their iniquity.
I will end the arrogance of the proud
and humble the insolence of tyrants.
12 I will make humans rarer than gold,
scarcer than Ofir’s pure gold.
13 This is why I will make the heavens tremble,
and the earth will be shaken from its place
at the wrath of Adonai-Tzva’ot
on the day of his fierce anger.
LOL!!
What makes you think that this matters anymore than the scribblings in any other book!?
What makes you think that this book has more authority to tell people what to do than, well,.. let`s say: Mao`s red book? The Quoran? Mein Kampf? or any other!?
Modern sociaty doesnt orientate itself arround totalitarian authoritarianism!
It orientates itself arround the addaption to make sociaty more benefitial for all it`s participants in any given situation!
So shove your bible up your ass! Or show me the phrase in the bible which gives authority over modern concepts such as credit fraud, tax evasion, copyright, billateral agreements, and other - whilest taking opposing views into consideration and includes them in a democratic process!
