okay,,silvriis,


~It always amazes me how many times this God orders the killing of innocent people even
after the Ten Commandments said ?Thou shall not kill?~


Kill?or murder?Prove its KILL,,and not murder.You can't,,can you?


~For example, God kills 70,000
innocent people because David ordered a census of the people (1 Chronicles 21).~


ummm,,God kills them right?Or brings them home?
Will the pot ask the potter,,what doest thou?


~God
also orders the destruction of 60 cities so that the Israelites can live there. He
orders the killing of all the men, women, and children of each city, and the looting of
all of value (Deuteronomy 3). He orders another attack and the killing of ?all the
living creatures of the city: men and women, young, and old, as well as oxen sheep, and
asses? (Joshua 6). In Judges 21, He orders the murder of all the people of
Jabesh-gilead, except for the virgin girls who were taken to be forcibly raped and
married.~


Well,,if Sihon,the King of Heshbon had heard the words of peace(Deut3v26) and allowed Israel to pass through the land(v27),,buy provisions while they walked through then maybe it would have been different right?
Of course,,considering that it was a primitive people with some really nasty ways of
worshipping their gods and satisfying their base desires,,I personally think it was a matter of removing a 'disease' infected set of people.Why else would He include animals if not due to the rule of executing both human and animal that participated in the act of bestiality?
After all,,it isn't like they had penicillin back then.You do know where syphillis came
from don't you,silvrii?Yeah,,a virgin would still be uninfected,,right?
Of course,,He knew it,,so He hardened Sihons heart so there would be no question of the outcome.


Regarding the book of Judges,,you have to read all the way to the end of it to really get the context of the times,,Ch21v25,,'In those days there was no King in Israel;every man did that which was right in his own eyes.'


Note,,not Gods.


Judges 21:For this one,,you have to back up to get the context,silvrii.
Back in Chapter 19 a man had his concubine/wife murdered while in Gibeah,,of the Benjamites.
There were men in this town that were described as men of Belial,,that's a god,,and a nasty one.They acted in a manner as bad as that ascribed to those is Sodom,,they wanted to rape the man.
Well,,even tho the mans host offered these pervs his own two daughters instead of the man they wouldn't let up.Finally,,the man gave his wife/concubine to them and they raped her to death.


That man goes home and tells the rest of his tribe,,they call on all of the other tribes and go and raze Gibeah,,and kill all the men except 600 or so.
Then,,becoming contrite,,because the name of Benjamin was cutoff,,they try to figure out how to straighten up the mess.They go to the House of the Lord,(Ch21v2) ask God (v3) then they make a decision,,God said NOTHING to them.(v5,v6,v7,v8,v10-11)
So,,in that case,,you are patently incorrect.


~In 2 Kings 10:18-27, God orders the murder of all the worshipers of a different god in their
very own church!~


Nope,,again you are patently incorrect.That was at the order of Jehu,,not God.
Now,,in v30,,God did tell Jehu something.But Jehu didn't take it to heart(v29,v31)so God began to cut Israel short(v32)


~So were is killing forbidden?~
Killing is accidental.
Murder is forbidden.
Execution is demanded,,'so that these things will cease from among you'.

Sorry, harbin, does not wash. God ordered to intentionally exterminate peoples, children included. You may hypothetize that they were all infected with some disease, but the Bible does not say so. Why are you surprised that God did? The idea that life of every human is precious is a very late one. Never before in history a life of every human being was considered precious. It all depended on what particular human: lives of slaves were zip, lives of kings somewhat more precious. Certainly not 2000-3000 years ago!

Dimitri?


~Sorry, harbin, does not wash. God ordered to intentionally exterminate peoples, children included.~


Not in the verses 'silvrii' cited.


~You may hypothetize that they were all infected with some disease, but the Bible
does not say so.~


No one claimed it did.I hypothesized.And I said as much.



~Why are you surprised that God did?~



Did what?In the passages silvrii (YOU?) cited his claim was that God ordered the executions.
As you can see,,as I pointed out,,he was wrong.
Wasn't he?Pick up a KJV.



~The idea that life of every human is precious is a very late one.~



Not yet,,but many are trying to kill it.
And it ain't in a coffin and buried just yet.


Even if,,with God stuff,,that wouldn't be the end anyway,would it?


~Never before in history a life of every human being was considered precious.~


Yet God did say that 'passing children through the fire to Moloch' was detestable,,didn't he?



AND,,that such a thing had never even came into His mind.Right?



And to commit murder was NOT desirable as well,,right?



And to beat your servant to death was verboten as well.



So,,no murder,,,but NOT every life was considered precious?
(??,,can't murder adults,,can't beat your slave to death,,can't sacrifice children,,who's left?What HUMAN LIFE doesn't fall under that equation??)


That was one of the BIG differences between Yahaveh and the 'other dieties' of the region and age.



Have you read the Bible,Dimitri?Or just the NT?



Have you read anything about those ancient religions?


~It all depended on what particular human: lives of slaves were zip, lives of kings
somewhat more precious. Certainly not 2000-3000 years ago!~


In what culture,,what peoples?That statement is way too vague and amorphous for me to believe you expect me to take it seriously regarding to the Hebrews/Israelis.Do you?
After all,,God is not a respector of persons.

20:23 Now the children of Israel went up, weeping before the Lord till evening,
requesting the Lord and saying, Am I to go forward again to the fight against the
children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.

Seems to me that is a Command from the Lord God to Go and slaughter.

Allrighty then,,I see how you guys want to be.
Lets be specific and terse.


claim:
~In Judges 21, He orders the murder of all the people of Jabesh-gilead~


FALSE


PROOF:


Then,,becoming contrite,,because the name of Benjamin was cutoff,,they try to figure out how to straighten up the mess.They go to the House of the Lord,(Ch21v2) ask God (v3) then they make a decision,,God said NOTHING to them.(v5,v6,v7,v8,v10-11)


claim:
~Seems to me that is a Command from the Lord God to Go and slaughter.~


THAT'S an OPINION,,just like my hypothesis REGARDING why God might want them dead.


COMMENT:
So,,in that case,,you are patently incorrect.


PROOF:
20:7 Behold,ye are all children of Israel;give here you advice and counsel.
20:8 And all the people arose as one man, saying, We will not any of us go to his tent, neither will we any of us turn into his house.
20:9 But now this shall be the thing which we shall do to Gibeah;we will go up by lot against it.


And they went to Gibeah and said:


20:13 Now therefore deliver us the men, the children of Belial, which are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel. But the children of Benjamin would not hearken to the voice of their brethren the children of Israel:


20:14 But the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities unto
Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.


Even though they were facing a force of over 400,000 with only '20 and 6 thousand'
(20:15 - 17)



20:18 And the children of Israel arose, and went up to the house of God, and asked counsel of God, and said, Which of us shall go up first to the battle against the children of Benjamin?
And the LORD said, Judah shall go up first.


COMMENT:


God said,,Judah would go up first,,not go slaughter women and children.
(THIS WAS THE FIRST ATTACK and they lost 18,000 men)


THEN:


20:23 Now the children of Israel went up, weeping before the Lord till evening,
requesting the Lord and saying, Am I to go forward again to the fight against the
children of Benjamin my brother? And the Lord said, Go up against him.



COMMENT:


(Go up against.Not go murder women and children)



COMMENT:


OH,,BTW,,they were attacking a city filled and ran by Sons of Belial and those who
advocated and defended the right of the pervs to rape someone,,even to death.They were psychopathic murdering rapist perverts.That makes it execution,,not killing nor murder.)

~There is not a single liberal who talks about a right to slay children.~


I offer for your consideration the liberal mantra of,,


"My body,my right,my choice.'


Of course,,we all know that this is equal with,,,


'I have a right to choose to slay the child that is growing in my body.'


SO:


FALSE

'I have a right to choose to slay the child that is growing in my body.'


How about this (libertarian) mantra:


"I have the right to rid my body of any of its parts, even that part, that may become a child when, and if, born."


But the bobhuntress' suggestion was that before we allow liberats to pollute the air we breathe with their spew, we have to administer to them the test for knowledge of the Constitution and the Bible, and the right answers for the test are 1) that the Constitution considers embryos as persons, and does not give the right to anyone already born to own their own bodies; and 2) that the Bible says that every human life is sacred, especially the life of those not yet born.

To which I respond with:


Okay,Dimitri,,I'm confused by your response since,,to be frank,,I wasn't responding to bobhuntress I was responding to you and 'silvrii'.



As to bobhuntresses suggestion,,I am all for it.But I don't think bobhunt was suggesting anything about what would be 'correct' answers,,just that they need to have knowlwdge of what ever topicis being 'debated' or discussed.The test would demand they pay attention to views,thoughts and considerations of the folks that they may oppose or disagree with.


Knowledge of the 'opposers' views and considerations leads to higher chances of equitable arrangements.IF THAT IS THE DESIRED OUTCOME.


Yet,,as to your 'possibly facetious' suggestions for 'correct answers' I for one agree.
(btw,,aren't you for 'abortion on demand',,er,,excuse me,,aren't you pro choice?)


And the fellow that started the thread did illustrate that 'tests' often ONLY get passed IF one gives the answer that the 'test' requires,,not what one may believe is correct.


For instance,,a student may believe God created the world but when the test asks how it came to be,,anything OTHER than by 'chance' would be considered incorrect.Correct?


IOW,, a test does not determine 'belief or 'acceptance'.A test determines how well you payed attention to the material as it was presented.
(and this is what has been largely responsible for the decline in the quality of education,IMHsmellyO.Logic and critical thinking skills are not required or promoted,,only memory skills)


AS IN,,,knowledge of subject does not nessecitate believing or agreeing' in conclusions drawn by the 'test'.And giving the 'answer the test is looking for' does not exclude 'disagreeing' with the subject.


YET,,
As to what we were discussing,,,well,,what you have morphed it into:


~"I have the right to rid my body of any of its parts, even that part, that may become a child when, and if, born."~


Is it legal to cut off ones own legs?
Wouldn't that be considered 'insane'?
Is it legal to cut off ones own head?
Wouldn't that be considered suicide?
Is it legal to attempt to commit suicide?,,or is that considerd a psychological problem?


Is,, a baby part of the mothers body?
Was the spermatoza that impregnated the egg part of the mothers body?
Doesn't that mean half of the 'growth' in her womb IS NOT hers?
Does the umbilical attach to the mother,,or to the placenta?
Is not a 'placenta' nothing more than a mammalian eggshell?
Is that NOT what Darwinianism claims?
When does the egg inside of a chicken cease being part of the hens body?


BTW,,I thought you were 'pro choice as regards convenience abortions',,are you?
