Okay, professor, since you have exclusive knowledge of what the Bible actually means, why don't you tell us precisely why, when the Bible says that you should not let a witch live, that it really means you should totally let a witch live?
Quote:What would you suggest the Christian Church in America do about these people? You want us to go into other countries and take the law into our own hands, like that wouldn't cause a world wide uproar. Scripture calls for the Church to excommunicate such people, but when the Church has so many denominations each do as they see fit.
Condemn and disavow all parts of the Bible which call for violence and persecution. Get rid of the entire Old Testament, since it has nothing to do with Christianity (at least, whenever the negative aspects are being discussed, conveniently). Remove that shit from the canon. Revise it. And don't bullshit me and tell me you can't, it's happened many times. The real reason you can't do it again is because there's no way you could get two Christians to agree on any kind of changes, much less 2 billion.
Quote:How do you suppose we tell others what they can and can't believe. I don't even do that here, I suggest things but I never try and push anyone. People in their own countries should have the desire to stop such horrible actions, it would not happen in this country.
There are tons of examples of Christian-inspired abuse of children in the United States? Want examples?
