I thought the ban was on animals with a solid hoof, like horses. Description of a hoof doesn't make sense when the hoof doesn't exist. Probably a translation fuck-up.
Everyone is conditioned. Since we've never met, I can't say I feel I know you at all, only what you've posted on here. As for my arguments, they're quite valid IMO, even if you disagree. Enough of this anyway.
In the spirit of Bill Maher's "New Rules" segment on HBO: "New rule: If you aren't on GinaLee's ignore list, you're a dumb-ass." :rofl:
Which is NOT the point and is not what is being discussed. Your response was in relation to my comment about parroting, Really? Where did I repeat old bullshit? Where's this conditioning? I'm not the one trying to debunk the Bible on the basis of cats and crows. But then at that point, I have to wonder if you started this thread just to bait. What was your intention, anyway? I think using ridicule and ridiculousness as a basis for attacking the Bible is tired and worn out. Do you have a conclusion about Saul and the king, and that evil spirit of God?
You think it's ok for a man to kill 200 other men, then circumcise them ? It doesn't matter who had the idea to do it, or what the intention was, the fact that your book says it was done really only helps cement my argument that it's basically primitive nonsense. No reasonable human being would do such things. A book which says that a man who did this was beloved by god is something which I seriously question has any moral or other value in our age.
Karen_J is still sore because of the abortion thread, hm? I truly did believe that she was just misunderstanding my point. I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Then it became crystal clear obvious that she was being ignorant. Intentional or not, I don't know. Karen_J, don't bad mouth the people who AREN'T on my ignore list, which is similar to bad mouthing people on my friends list. You're on ignore because I believe in Peace. I only see what you wrote because BBB quoted you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJHVNABJYI4"]Tori Amos - Waitress - Venus Live: Still Orbiting - YouTube
Take that Karen!! I wonder if Jehova has an ignore list? If so maybe cats, rabbits etc are on it......
:smilielol5: I couldn't make this shit up! Couldn't be dinosaurs, since they weren't mentioned in the Bible. Along with all pigs and pig farmers!
You have the mentality of an American. lol. In my neighborhood (Boston .. sunfighter knows what I'm talkin' about), we'd say "that's wicked retarded". haha hang 10 honey, Karen_J's gonna go where I go... lmao
Karen_J thinks it's okay for the people of society to tell me to kill (abort) my kids so how is that any different? No double standards, please. Either you're cool with killing or you aren't. Wanna place blame? Wanna find fault? It's all God's fault. And satan's too. And man's. And woman's. I don't know what all the killing is about. I really don't.
