I was merely responding to the cheekiness of Mr. Doe. But I should say that Christianity has traditionally made a distinction between our obligations as private persons to be forgiving, and the duty of the magistracy to uphold the civil order, so the texts you mention are not strictly relevant to the main issues.

So many of these theological questions are really wrestled with in a good church. I study one on one with a minister that is up to his neck in the RR and yet he talks very matter of factly about how there are many questions that don't have black and white answers. Some things are still just a mystery. The camel and the needle; the question is pondered and not answered by him that there is a real question as to who is and who isn't a real Christian when it comes to the level of commitment to the life as outlined by the Bible. This guy as a seminary degree from one of the RR seminaries and he also is a Rhodes scholar as well as having a Phd from Cambridge. He has a lot of connections with what I would call the English RR.
