Yes said it right here, cupcake... Message 26099636 LOL! Now you are turtling and saying the opposite. All of a sudden you now claim that it is always a jugment call where you weigh the facts and make your own moral choice based on your understanding of a filthy book of racist genocide and barbarian mythology you have never even read! CHUCKLE! Romans 13: Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience. This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.

Your puny little mind just can't get around the fact that no one is obligated to obey a command to violate what is clearly laid out in God's law. Yet Moses killed and ordered killing on several occassions... “…they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day…Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘The man must surely be put to death”…So as the Lord commanded Moses, all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him with stones, and he died.” "And Moses said to them: "Have you kept all the women alive? Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the LORD in the incident of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately. But keep alive for yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately." For several years you have claimed not only to be an expert on the bible but the sole authority on interpreting it. You've prophesied things that only a lunatic would lay claim to having knowledge about. "I suspect that cutting and pasting quotes from a Ayn Rand, who is already in torment awaiting the final judgement, is not going to get you too far." Message 21737436 You've justified the most ridiculous things that are against the ten commandments because they don't apply to the elect, anointed and chosen of your little tribe of couch Christians and their holy book.
