Yes, accidental murder is a contradiction. God did not command the death penalty when someone died because of an accident. Where there is no intent, there is no guilt. (Deuteronomy 19 and Numbers 35). There is also the issue of self-defense where someone dies and there is no blood guilt...

Well, that's just the whole point. Murder is an intentional act. If a person is not capable of understanding what murder is then he can't commit the crime. There is an argument that can be made that it isn't up to us to make such determinations and that someone who takes another person's life...

Those are gigantic IFs though. So gigantic as to be practically meaningless.

Not a five year old. I don't see it. They're barely old enough to understand that a toy belongs to them at that age, never mind what it would take to end someone's life on purpose. If it's possible at all, it would so rare as to not be worth talking about and the parents of any such child would...

Anyone ever heard of a five year old murderer? I haven't! I doubt very much that a five year old is even capable of committing the crime of murder.

Like I said, those who have their eyes closed can't complain about the "absence of evidence" for anything. I wonder what it will take for me to stop wasting my time on this website? I dropped nothing. A free and civil society cannot persist for long absent morals.

Children are NOT born sinners! People who commit sin are sinners, not newborns! Elizabeth's baby wasn't alienated from God... Luke 1:41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. The only people...

Ad hominem much? Right. Are you convinced by that? Me neither! That might have something to do with Catholicism being more than half false and the fact that the closer you get to Oxford the further from the truth and reality you're probably getting, especially when it comes to theology. You...

Except that it explicitly says that God's will wasn't done. The is specifically and explicitly what it says. The ONLY reason you have for saying otherwise is that your doctrine demands it. You read your doctrine into every passage that you can and ignore the passages that explicitly contradict...

That's right. It started with Augustine's veritable worship of Aristotle and Plato who taught that God was immutable and Augustine's bishop who taught him how to interpret the bible in the light of Aristotle. It is literally a case of bringing a preconceived doctrine to the bible and reading...

I wonder what percentage of the bible b57 has never read, or worse, chooses to ignore in order to maintain his belief in the unjust god of Calvin? Deuteronomy 4:28 And there you will serve gods, the work of men’s hands, wood and stone, which neither see nor hear nor eat nor smell. 29 But from...

The proof that God exists is literally everywhere. Those who don't see it, don't want to see and and refuse to be shown. And I'm not the least bit concerned about your personal opinions about me. The fact is that I do HATE homosexuals, and proudly so! Hatred toward those who willfully destroy...

If I were to put anyone to death it would be murder. That isn't the question and you know it. It doesn't have anything to do with what is being discussed at all. It is the governing official that doesn't "bare the sword in vain" (Romans 13:4) not regular civilians like you and me. Why are you...

Why change the tense? I find it fascinating when people refuse to give a straight answer to questions that answer themselves. Of course God was not wrong when He said that those who commit homosexual acts are to be put to death. The real question is why do you say otherwise?

He does more than condemn it, He says that those guilty of such crimes deserve the death penalty, in both the Old and the New Testament. Was God wrong?

Christians aren't told to kill anyone themselves (discounting things like self-defense and war). That's what the government is for and only then upon conviction of a capital crime in a court of law. Do you feel the same about murders?

Why not? Galatians 3:24 Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

No one is pretending to speak for God. That's why there's a bible. You don't believe the bible is God's word but I know that it is for a fact. Rigtheousness is NOT a matter of opinion. Something is either righteous, evil or amoral. If you (i.e. anyone) believe something immoral is righteous then...

God HIMSELF said... Leviticus 20:13 If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. WAS GOD WRONG? Answer the question!

I know that's what you were doing. My point is precisely that. In short, you need to adjust yourself. Paul explicitly states that homosexual deserve death. Romans 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in...
