An unanswerable question

[Rahul]

Evidently you read something in the bible that seems to say we should kill a disobedient child. I'd need a specific reference to respond to that one. I'll guarantee you it doesn't say that.

Deuteronomy 21:18-21

King James Version (KJV)


18 If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:

19 Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;

20 And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard.

21 And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Exodus 21

21:15 And he that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death.
