I make no apologies for being an ass.

And I don't respect or worship you.

You're an embarrassment to Atheists everywhere! You better get to studying that Bible, and while you're at it...I'll be waiting on a book report from you on Jurassic Park! You better sharpen up on fiction ASAP. Get your ass in gear mister. Wink

I couldn't help myself.

I reject your reality, and insert my own.

If it is both deliberate and avoidable, then absolutely.
Who defines avoidable?

An action taken, the result of which is a manifestation of a being's explicit will. An action not taken under duress or as the result of some uncontrollable limitation or accident.

In other words, anything, at all, that an omnipotent and omniscient being (say, the Christian God) does is not something it ever must do. When it kills, it kills only because that's what it feels like doing. It has the express and premeditated desire to end lives.

Before Christ only those/that with out spot or blemish may share a space with the 'set apart.' After Christ's atonement was offered on our behalf, we could then go to God as we are.

God creates man. Curses man. Decides cursed man is not worthy of Himself. But killing things makes Him feel better. But cursed man cannot kill anything that quite satisfies God. But God can satisfy God. So because God loves man, whom He cursed and whom subsequently cannot kill anything to redeem himself, decides He will kill Himself, for man, so that He is satisified and man can be redeemed for Him and by Him. God is a petty, schizophrenic, blood-thirsty child who in divine pathetic boredom alone plays the roles of prosecuter, defense, and judge.

And an otherwise sane, reasonable person believes this makes perfect sense and has good reason to think it's true. Everyone together:

Ooooookaaaaaay.

The assembly has nothing to do with heaven or hell. It about being able to worship at their version of church service.

I don't think so, and your source is not the original Hebrew, nor does it reflect the context. From both the Hebrew and the context, I think it refers to conversions, to "joining the congregation of Jehovah" by conversion. So, Ammonites and Moabites are excluded, but the children of Edomites and Egyptians are OK after the third generation -- and a good thing, since wasn't Herod an Edomite? Or maybe he just had an editor insert Edomites in the text. One would not expect to have an Ammonite drop in to the synagogue for Yom Kippur, anyway.
