No, I don't. Or I would not have asked. If you have stated your reasoning before, I have not read it.Lighthouse...this is something that has been repeatedly discussed here on TOL. You know my arguments as well as I know yours...and I won't tread this same ground again.
If God doesn't call for it, I don't call for it. And before I came to TOL I didn't call for it on this issue, or adultery, either. But now I know why God called for it, and I believe that for that very same reason He still desires it.It is sad that the two of us...who profess the same beliefs...have such a wide gulf when it comes to this kind of thing. And your propensity to call for the death of others in so many situations frightens me.
It is under God's law. And God's law is above all else.I understand you find homosexuality repulsive...and I agree. It is a sin. But it is not a sin which I believe, from what I've studied and been taught, that calls for US to kill. (You know that from my last four years of posts.) Nor is it something under man's law for which we can put someone to death.
P.S.
You need to study more.
Pedophiles are rapists, and I don't see a lot of argument against that from TOLers.If you want to make the discussion about putting pedophiles to death, then you might be able to get me on board.
I know there have been. And I know you are one of those who have argued against it. I was even thinking of you as I typed that post. But I was not referring to you, of course. The person I was referring to exiled himself in a huff, because he was mad. And he didn't want to face the word of God that was laid out before him over and over again. Instead he chose to ignore it, and then he ran away. And yet he was more vocal against it than you ever have been. And though I can't stand you, I have to give you credit. You have not run away from TOL because you didn't like what people were saying.What? There's actually been a lot of people who have argued that adultery doesn't deserve the DP nowadays LH! Is your memory really so selective? And btw - it doesn't take much bravery to try and malign an opposing view to yours by saying that people 'ran off crying'.......
