Also, it’s quite likely even this (short of the Savior giving a personal judgment in each and every case, meaning to turn it over to the sinners) is going to look like Old Testament practice. Multiple witnesses required, lying witnesses liable to punishment in the same way the accused was liable. The Old Testament holy system was “holey” — on divine purpose. That was how grace was allowed in.
I don’t see it as being totalitarian, because those left behind by that point will WANT TO LIVE in harmony with God’s commandments. However, the destruction will come, by natural disaster as well as by self-destruction and civil war to all nations that will not desist their attempts to destroy and/or pollute God’s religion.
Are you at war with straw men? I said no such thing. Perhaps my indignation with sodomites is fervent (having small children), but why don’t you reserve your judgment for the ungodly? Unless you agree with pro-sodomy laws being forced upon the populace?
I agree!
the author is starting with the assumption that their sexual fetish is an immutable trait like skin color.
It is like asking a sociopath to empathize with others.
How many other unacceptable behaviors have to be “accepted”?
How about can cannibals and non cannibals live together?
And that was the justification for annulling laws related to Race.
It was a genetic characteristic, not based on individual choice and behavior, which can be regulated in a free society.
The only behavior ever granted the status of civil right before the 1960s in our society was religion (creed).
Now those who practice all sorts of aberrant behavior claim a civil right to do so since they're a minority.
Murder is practiced by a minority. Does that make it a civil right, and its practitioners a Protected Class?
The answer to the question is still no. Those who believe a ‘live and let live’ position exists are dreaming. To quote Abraham Lincoln, it will become all one thing, or all the other.
Just have another double Scotch.
One in side the other? Bad pun I know.
I think history will prove you wrong. Aggression against kids must be met head on, but when that’s not the case most people go by live and let live.
Thanks for the final comment, you must be some kind of activist.
No offense. I was using your humor. Yes, I am an activist for freedom and liberty and the right to disagree with the sodomite legislation being forced on my country and children. There is nothing gay about sodomy. It is a death sentence for all who partake, and totalitarian in its very nature. That is why they cannot and will not “live and let live”.
No, history has always proven me right and will predictably do so again. Sodomites always destroy civilization and are destroyed themselves...Minoans, Sodom-Gamorah, Ancient Greece, Rome, etc. when everything falls apart, the Sodomites will be rightly judged and removed and civilization will rebuild without them. The memory of them will rot.
Sodomy is different. A lot of the gays are brain damaged so that may affect their tendencies. I guess it’s their way of reproduction, create a new generation of mini-me’s.
Helping the innocent and children is a noble effort. The sooner it is unwrapped from the bible the better. I don’t dislike it because it’s in the bible, I dislike the pervs because it is just plain wrong. Same with abortion.
The bible is too easily mocked for the benefit of the stupid and we need the stupid’s votes too.
