@Soul.og What sense would it make for Mary to remain a virgin when scripture tells wives to submit to their husbands. She would of been a bad wife not to submit to her husband. I would be frustrated if i married a woman and then she refused to love me and refused to let me love her. That's not...

The Catholic church uses great mental gymnastics in order to say that Mary was a perpetual virgin but it is plain for all to see that Jesus had brothers and sisters. After all it would make no sense for Mary to remain a virgin when the scriptures tell women to submit to their husbands. She...

It's true it was his fault he just jumped out onto the road. Hahaha Iv never hit one but I know people that have and it can be very dangerous at high speed, its like hitting a big rock, you'll loose control and go off the road

True. One of my arguments on this thread was that our justice system is prone to error and corruption. It's going to wrongfully convicted people here and there. But I didn't even consider AI deception. One can't even trust video evidence anymore. It's scary

On the other thread I said capital punishment was barbaric. You then falsely accused me of calling God barbaric and for attacking America. Now your actually agreeing with me in opposing capital punishment. I don't understand why you made those false accusations to begin with

I read that. How easy then was it to conspire with another person against someone. Too easy. Thank goodness in today's courts they need more than that to prove someone's guilt I think. "Beyond reasonable doubt" is the standard used these days

I'm sorry i didn't understand your explanation. Was murder construed as something else back then? Isn't the death penalty still murder? Can you elaborate? Ok he doesn't actually mention that but he also says whoever hasn't sinned can throw a stone. There is that part of the story that your...

That's another argument I was going to add. The mental anguish for all involved from the guards to the executioner, the lawyers, judge, jury and even the families of the accused and the victims. That's something that will traumatize people

I don't understand your criticism here A person understands what their being punished for, they don't just forget after a while. That's why there's pastors and counsellors in prison to help them come to terms with what they did. The longer their in for the more they will regret their crime...

Well you have your opinion. I have mine Stoning her to death was the OT law of the Jews. Jesus nullifies that. If he had supported the Jewish law of the OT then he would of allowed the stoning. And by saying whoever has not sinned can cast a stone he is saying that they're hypocrites for...

I don't understand what you mean. The command is thou shall not murder and that is being violated. What's wrong with that?

These are the reasons why I am against capital punishment When it comes to scripture many of the OT laws are nullified by the NT and Christ's teachings, which is what Christians live by. Teachings like eating pork and shellfish, circumcision, animal sacrifices, the ordinances between Jews and...

Haha. That's right I'm not American. I'm not specifically talking about American laws, im just talking about the morality of capital punishment in general. Someone started a new thread on the death penalty. Keep an eye on it because I will be making my case against the death penalty in more...

Start a thread with a poll I'm interested to see. I personally don't agree with the death penalty

I think there is a difference between eastern meditation and western meditation. In eastern meditation one empties their mind of all thoughts In western meditation one thinks about certain things like the meaning of scriptural verses

Fact There are about 200 countries in the world. About 25 countries still have capital punishment. China, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Vietnam, North Korea, Singapore, Indonesia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Oman, Syria, Somalia, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, South Sudan...

I already agreed with the verses you gave

People have various interpretations on the subject of salvation. It deserves its own thread for people to discuss

I never beared false witness. It was just a misunderstanding. I was simply saying that we can defend ourselves. Everything time i asked the question you would give a long statement that I could not understand and appeared to be dodging my question, instead of being straight forward like you...

We agree that we can defend ourselves. And we agree that village pillaging, torture, rape and such is wrong. So we are in total agreement my friend. God bless
