Paul was church of God, how about you? Are you church of God?
In this country we are not subject to Russian law or Arab law or Moses' law.
Paul explained there are two covenants and said, "So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman but of the free."
Quit abusing the bondwoman, she's not yours.
Oops.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know.
I have no animosity towards the house of the speech of fire and angelic tongues.
Do you forgive me?

I agree with that.
I don't despise Moses.
I just use strong verbiage to try to explain how mixing Moses with Jesus brings some severe problems on.
She is Loved by God too.
So was her son. The wild donkey against all humanity. [emoji846]

I do.
God help me Patrick, you make me laugh when I'm trying not too.
You totally made light of the point of discussion in one swoop and few words.

You should read the whole thread. I've repeatedly said the opposite of this. Killing them outright would be murder, not justice. The rule and due process of law is an indispensable aspect of criminal justice. Vigilantism is unjust.
Why? Because I advocate that what God says is just?
Not to you, otherwise, half your priests would be in prison -
Well, it's not about a literal, single individual and given homosexuals come in both genders and he'd presumably execute more than one...it seemed like the right call.
I don't invest much, personally, in hypothetical outrage, so for me it was more of a, "Really?" moment to couple with a light bit of dry notation.
Well, it is a sin, but it isn't a crime.
Absolutely.
Absolutely not.
In point of fact, the age of consent has risen steadily since the turn of the last century.
In the late 1800s here it was around 10 to 12 years of age here in the states. After a lot of hard work, female reformers were successful in having the age raised here. Most states were closer to 16 by the early to mid 1920s, with some straggling in later.
I don't think a secular republic should be in the business of legislating morality, only defending against abrogation of right. So no Sharia and no stoning homosexuals.
Then let's just threaten all non-Christians with painful death in the name of swelling the ranks of the saved.

Oh. So you convict them first, before you torture them and kill them so they'll know how much you love them.
Still sick.
According to who, you?
I'm not offering my personal opinions here.
It is a crime whether you want to acknowledge as one or not.
So glad you agree with God on something.
When was the last time someone was executed in this country for the rape of a child?
You don't know the answer because it's been since long before you were born.
What is the connection between homosexuality and child-molestation?
Do you have any idea?
Did you even know that such a connection existed?
Legalizing Sexual Child Abuse: Pedophilia Now Classified As A Sexual Orientation
Why should I care what you think?
This was a stupid thing to say. It has nothing to do with anything I believe or anything I've said on this thread. Can you seriously not think any more clearly than that?Then let's just threaten all non-Christians with painful death in the name of swelling the ranks of the saved.
It's not my idea!
On what basis do you call it sick?
I do not advocate torture, by the way. The form of execution should be swift but not painless. It isn't about punishment as much as it is deterring crime and the results of it.
*shivers*
I'm in my 60's, and for most of life I was not worried that this might happen.
But I have seen not only hints of that tide turning, but some even demanding it be so.
The end of absolutes in society can only mean that worse atrocities are coming.
There is no compass or north star.
Yes, in exactly the same sense that the speed limits are set "according to a police officer".
lain:Too bad, because that was the only chance you had of being right on some level...by which I mean right about how you felt about it.
Almost right. It isn't a crime, no matter how anyone feels about it.
I don't disagree with God on any particular, though I have more than a few disagreements with some people who appear to think they speak for Him.
We don't execute rapists of any sort that I know of and you know why? In large part because when we did that we found that we were inadvertently encouraging rapists to kill their victims.
This will surprise you then: I know who won both World Wars and I can recite the Canterbury Tales in Middle-English...go figure.
In your mind or objectively speaking?
So you think that because someone put that in the headline of their bit on some website right before an article about Muslims prisoners suing Pamela Geller for wearing a polka do bikini that it's true?
It isn't. At least the legalizing part. I don't know if the DSM is going to be altered on the point of particulars, though many people with mental disorders are tried for crimes they committed in any event and many more are institutionalized, as with Hinkley for shooting Reagan while deranged.
As I've noted to people who aren't invested in the domino theory (nice step around my note about the actual case regarding the age of consent, one contrary to your chicken-little cry) there are a host of reasons you don't have to worry about pedophilia being legalized, beginning with consent and the capacity that founds it. The 19 year old and 17 year old scenario has seen a good deal of redress with laws amended specifically to reflect that the nearness in age in relatively minor (unintended) age differences should be treated differently than those involving adults and children, by way of side bar.
I don't care if you care what I think. I'm rebutting a few of your wrong headed and factually deficient declarations. I don't expect you to stand up and cheer. It's really not about you. It's about the statements.
Thanks. I was meeting you on your level to underscore the bone-headed nature of your premise:
That one was altering the tides.
It really did.
Said the fellow who got the law wrong, the history of the law wrong and just about everything in between and following it. Yeah, I can think clearly enough to see the truth even when some of it isn't particularly palatable. I can understand the law even when I differ on it. And I can have a grasp of history without having lived through it.
All of those seem to confound you.
homosexual acts are sinful - I have always held that
