Everyone has bad thoughts run through their head, @Dayton3. Also, will you quit this shit? You remind me of the guy we all knew back in high school who wore the sleeveless Austin 3:16 shirt and called everyone dumbass. No one was impressed.
which means you personally don't do it - it doesn't mean you set up a legalistic system to make sure no one else does it either. And knowing, for example, that murder is si does not mean you can sort every human behavior into sin/not sin piles based on the Bible. Indeed, despite the idiotic claims of Paula White, if the Biblical claim that Jesus was without sin is correct - then not even breaking the law (Theocratic or secular) is NECESSARILY sinful.
when this thread winds down, I'm gonna have to add TLS to the block list. No one should have to endure that kind of stupidity in their life.
Well, there God allows Job to be tested, already knowing the outcome. Christian tradition identifies the instigator of the test with Satan. And that was a test of hardship, not a temptation to pleasure. The temptation with which Job struggled was to give in and curse God for his misfortune. The original point I disputed was that people are set up to fail again and again by a God who made them contrary to what is supposedly natural. That sounds more like the attitude of a mocking antitheist than a believer.
There needed to be a "doesn't matter, rich people will still get their abortions", option on the poll.
I'm sure some would. As would poorer people. But I'm sure you're not implying richer folks are any less moral, right?
Hm. I have often read Christian positions that assume that man is by nature doomed to sin, which is why the only salvation is by grace. Jesus says, for instance, that even a saint commits seven mortal sins every day. As for Job, I would argue that not even the narrator is completely sure of the outcome. There are clearly at least two different versions mixed up in the now canonized Biblical version, one of which has Job quite massively falling from grace.
Unrelated, but boy that was a helluva time to be into wrestling, when you could still use props and the stories were better than daytime TV
Richer folks can take time off and pay for the expense of traveling to a state that isn't busily trying to turn itself into Margaret Atwood's Gilead. Poorer folks, not so much.
Sorry, if people can walk from Venezuela to Texas in order to give birth they can surely migrate to a state to have a child killed.
Zygotes aren't babies. No one goes "awwwww", when a tadpole eats a birthday cake with their bare face. Cuz it's not a thing that happens.
I'm sure you'll be equally glib and dismissive when it comes to the rights you enjoy. After all, if women can walk from Venezuela to Texas to give birth, SURELY you can go to Montana to buy a gun.
