ps. on defining murder one dictionary uses the following (in part) "Homicide (Lat. homo, man; and caedere, to slay) Homicide signifies, in general, the killing of a human being. In practice, however, the word has come to mean the unjust taking away of human life, perpetrated by one distinct from the victim and acting in a private capacity. For the purposes of this article, therefore, account is not taken of suicide, nor of the carrying out of the penalty of death by due process of law. The direct killing of an innocent person is, of course, to be reckoned among the most grievous of sins. " ... and you are not even out of the first paragraph!!! so God kills, but does not murder. Because for one He's not appart from us, if he decides us guilty we are, etc... What a really nice moral explanation of God's actions. What if the only reason for God killing someone was because He could and felt like it. What about using someone to set an example who is otherwise blameless? Morals get foggier and foggier as you go. -maouse

maouse... You don't read the bible do you ?? The Law said that we must not murder and he that murders MUST be put to death ! How can you try and say that the penalty is as big a sin as the crime !! You still never answered my question. What is Idolatry ?
