Quote:God's actions in the Old Testament would either be wasted on the 21st century or have the wrong effect: fear and not love.So the reason you won't be in favour of these laws is because we live in a different time, and it'll backfire if we have these laws? But you think that killing children of parents who killed children is the proper way to punish people who kill children? I don't want to misrepresent your stance here, so please be clear. Are you saying that it is just, but for the bigger purpose, which is to get people to believe in god's love, we shouldn't do this yet. Until they believe, then we can do this. ?
By the way, it's the first time i've seen anyone say that killing children will be wasted on us. As if we should appreciate the gesture. I've actually tolerated a lot of outrageously immoral things you've said, only because I used to be very religious. But even at my most religious i only defended god of the bible and never would have defended the same actions in the society i lived in. I need to know that you have this separation as well otherwise I really don't want to continue this conversation.
I'll phrase the question again: are you saying that you will not be in favour of these laws in today's society because they're not strategically sound?
