Well, you acknowledge that stealing and lying are okay depending on context then, good. Others don't. Neither of us were talking about killing people anyway but obviously if lives were under threat, it could be the only option, if possible.

It was inexcusable the invasion of Iraq. How about you acknowledge the same in regards to Putin's invasion of the Ukraine?

How could it be shown that abortion is a right in the OT? I'm not overly familiar with the latter in honesty.

Obviously not but as you've brought it up I was no fan of the invasion of Iraq anyway, at all. The UK was complicit in that also and it had zilch to do with deposing Hussein.

Care to explain what's "decent and honorable" about invading a country that was providing no provocation, bombing it's civilians and killing hundreds of thousands? You are as gullible and ignorant as it can possibly get. And that's putting it kindly.

Which ironically enough comes under the banner of fundamentalism...

It really is't. Rather, you're probably referring to one passage in Leviticus and using it as a stable for all law on the matter. Don't live in the Bronze age anymore or communal tribes either. Plenty changed since the OT, not everything sure and nor should it but again, you're like the...

It really isn't. So, you wouldn't force them on people, only those who decided to stay? Supposing they couldn't leave? You're only underscoring the point of Pure's OP regarding the dangers of zealotry ran amok and why we thankfully have laws in place that prevent such from coming about. They...

Trouble with that is, some of the more ardent zealots think that it's actually loving to impose their beliefs on others and deny them any say so.

All too often seen in places like Saudi Arabia and with the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan etc. Places where freedom is a word only and where human rights are an abstract. The only "good" thing with the zealotry displayed under the guise of Christianity here is that the usurping of...

As anna has already alluded to, to what degree? Some things are black and white sure. If someone forces themselves on another including in marriage then it's rape. Other things aren't quite so clear cut so I'm reckoning you have shades of grey also. An obvious example being: You're harboring...

Whereas Zerohedge & The Gateway Pundit are veritable bastions of journalistic integrity?! :ROFLMAO:

I miss the former contents of my stomach...:/

The nausea with both was already there so no worries... Now excuse me while I hasten to the bathroom to clean up some vomit that's not quite appeared yet...

Homosexuality isn't a crime, simple as. That you think it should be and punishable by death doesn't make it so.

No, it's toxic to those who value logic, reason, compassion, empathy and also faith frankly. You've pretty much underlined Pure X's point about zealotry. You would have people enforced to live under your ideal based on your beliefs of how a Godly society should be. So would others in differing...

Pathetic isn't it? This lot go on about "commies", "left wingers" and yet here they are defending a Russian despot....

What on earth is your point?

It beggars belief not only that anyone is an apologist for Putin but how they can't see how woefully he and his regime have blundered into things with such misplaced zeal and ill warranted confidence. This is an absolute embarrassment for Russia. He most certainly did think that his forces would...

Irony is often lost on the addle brained...
