Steve, I absolutely get that Bob is being devil's advocate (parden the pun) here for the sake of commonsense and moderation. I get that, and but unfortunately the tools with which devil's advocate is played are those that perpetuate (in unenlightened circles) the use of out of context verses and chapters to validate the actions of those who feel disenfranchised or do not understand the world and how it treats them like Breivik et al. When playing devil's advocate I think we need be careful that we do not inadvertently arm those with opposing viewpoints and who miss entirely the devil's advocacy I think this is plain and I think the true nature of the OP is lost on whomever it is directed at, as is obvious by the continuation of this thread in the same vein.Jenna, I think that's exactly the point. If I understand correctly, Bob is trying a different tactic to persuade some people on the forum that they are doing nothing more than "extract[ing] verses from any holy text and cite it in a complete contextual vacuum." The point I'm getting from Bob is exactly your point, any numpty (I love this word) can do this, and many here have been doing this for months against the muslim faith. He's tried refuting the arguments against muslims by Twin Fist with facts and that hasn't gone anywhere, so I applaud him for taking a different tack and demonstrating how easy it is for any numpty to pull things out of context.
Take this same point and apply it to socialism, liberalism, progressivism, conservativism or any other ism you can think of. The lesson is this: any numpty can do this.
I can't be, my wife would kill me.
Depends on what version you are reading what word is used.
New International = You shall not murder
21st cent King James = Thou shalt not kill
2 years ago, May. to my wife.Se being from NY, did you 2 just get married :ultracool
Depends on what version you are reading what word is used.
New International = You shall not murder
21st cent King James = Thou shalt not kill
Neither Canuck nor I use or read either version, we have the original , the rest are translations of translations. As we've seen on here before we have misunderstandings between American English and the original English English so it's not surprising the Christian versions get skewed.
1st century would have been Hebrew and aramaic as well.Christian versions get skewed.
"2 peoples seperated by a common language"
The actual Hebrew is 'murder'
a pishposh, who bothers with details?!And let's not forget that the overwhelming majority of terrorist acts done in the name of Islam are in fact political in nature.
so I guess I am off the hook if I just 'manslaughter'......
But, do you read it in the original Aramaic and Hebrew, or in English?
It will be fine when you lot learn to speak proper like wat I do. :uhyeah:

I guess for me... I just saw it as Bob attempting to speak the same language, using the same logic to demonstrate how flawed it is. We all know Bob doesn't have an axe to grind with xtianity.Like I say, it is all internet traffic and which is fuel for a forum I know this Again I mean no offence to anyone. Jenna
Yup. As they say in Bob's new noodle state " judge he needed killin"
