      You might want to go read Deu 20 where god says a raped virgin woman must be sold to her rapist. The only punishment the rapist gets is to pay her father the dowry.
      
      Or maybe you want to read other parts where GOd says its fine to make war and take the virgins for wives… More rape there…

      Just like the eternal life, the God-believing fathers and brothers gave to the kids that they abused. I am sure they gave the kids "the value of human life aNd love". Such a moron to believe on this rubbish.
      
      And of course people like Cardinal George Pell will protect the abusers. All in the name of God and the Virgin mother, who, if they exist, have done nothing to protect their little "loving" creations !!
      
      Such rubbish !!

      Well for starters the bible doesnt ban pedophilia, because the bible isnt anything remarkable it allows all the other evils everybody else did back then eg, like slavery, inequality of women, racism.
      
      The Catholics and other xians protect pedophiles tells you a lot. It tells you they only worry about the police and dont seem to worry about God punishing them for their crimes. That tells us they know there is no god, but the police are real. Again ill repeat it tells you they only worry about who can really get them, and tahts the police who are real, and not god who by their own actions they admit doesnt exist.

      99c Jesus is God its the whole trinity thing so it's not a literal dad sending a literal son to die
      99c do you think abortion ends/terminates a human life? You should worry about aussie women killing aussie kids rather than God giving his life wilfully.
      and heaps of kids find love and acceptance and learn great lessons from many churches
      I also know of abuse but don't imagine its all dark and evil

      99c
      
      Thous shalt not kill covers abortion
      I stated clearly my crimes were not against the person directly
      So you can guess theft vandalism etc
      I have caught and reported child sex offenders to police
      
      Slavery is condemned by Jesus commandments
      What is your background with all this as it seems you have certain knowledge and certain anger
      
      The way you presented Jesus dying is very strange and does not line up with biblical account
      
      99c you say every ot author is bad sinner this is not known is it for all of them
      Daniel? And others
      
      Is there standing OT orders for Christians to do terrible things?
      
      The bible bans child sex when it bans sex outside marriage so the bible doesn't have to say don't take meth don't donthis or that it is obvious

      this also covers male masturbation… because when you ejaculate the sperm, which is a living thing, dies.
      
      it also covers the female menstruation cycle where not only is a "living thing" in the egg is cast out of the womb but there is also the death of thousand (maybe more… im not an expert in the field) of living blood cells also cast out at the same time.

    Also
    
    Luke 6:31King James Version (KJV)
    31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
    
    He stopped the men from stoning the woman as well.

      no, but gay marriage fits in there perfectly
      
      Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
      
      so you should accept "gays" into your world with open loving arms
      
      as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
      
      "gays" let you marry and have various governmental, financial and personal privileges, you should happily allow them to also partake in these exact same rights….
      
      i hope you are going to go out and support gay marrage bills/rights now you have seen the error in your ways

      Seemingly great point yet we love the sinner but hate the sin same goes for paedophiles and people having sex out of marriage and sex with animals. Loving my neighbour doesn't condone sin and I do not what men to do unto me (marry me)
      This is poor logical leap you have made
      
      I believe you have morals but mistake babies for parasites and therefore condone the murder and mutilation of babies while standing up for homosexuals to be married. In effect your equal rights do discriminate against the unborn but you have explained why. Why did gays and satan worshipers with pedophiles unite to raise money to kill babies after selling their souls to satan in a ceremony in USA recently?

      That shows you the dishonesty of the bible, people making shit up all the time… Thats hardly a surprise when Matt 26 says that zombies walked around Jerusalem, or Luke says there was an eclipse for 3 hours when Jesus died. FUnnily enough nobody else say EITHER….

      A fertile male human ejaculates between 2 and 5 mililiters(ml) of semen (on average about a teaspoon). In each ml there are normally about 100 million sperm.

      Go read Ex 21:20 for starters , where Moses says a master can beat a slave because they are his property, providing they dont kill them. Thts WRONG… you can play your dishonest word games and pretend they were servants, but violence that allows the BOSS to almost kill the servant is WRONG…

      Abraham had Hagar the slave, and proceeded to rape her, and all the time he is talking to god. Was God blind to this evil ? Or is the story bullshit ?

      no one who follows Jesus commandments would keep slaves so you are mistaken
      
      Hang on i just showed you that Jesus himself says to follow Moses laws, which allow slavery. I gave you the example in Philemon where the XIAN SLAVE runs away from his xian master. At no stage does Paul condemn the master for having a slave.
      
      Moses says slavery is fine, Jesus says follow and teach moses.. it doesnt get more simple than that.
      
      dont want to hit and run. So please tell me christians with slaves after Jesus.

      Go read the story of Hagar, where Sarah "gives" her to Abe. Hagar is never asked, she has no choice thats how slavery worked back then. Notice nobody in the OT not even Jesus condemns Abe for having slaves or raping Hagar.
      
      If anyone gave your sister to a grubby old man, and she got pregnant, thats RAPE. When you dont ask the woman, thats RAPE. Its against the law to GIVE women for sex to anyoene today because its sexual slavery. Go read your bible and see for yourself.

      I also showed that the apostles continued to follow Moses, thats why i referrred to Acts, where the apostles are argyuing with Paul that followers of jesus had to be followers of the law of moses.
      
      Jesus didnt change anything law wise, thats a BIG LIE… if he did, where are the NEW LAWS ? Theres should be pages of them… so where are they ?

      You know very well that slaves DIDNT HAVE A CHOICE. Slaves are property of their master, they have no choice in ANY MATTERS, the masters wish always wins. Of course if she refused Abe could beat the shit out of her, just like Ex 21 says… Thats just part of the evil that the bible allows and never condemns.
      
      Abraham is an evil person for having slaves to begin with, and as is usual of slave masters back then, they use their position to do whatever they wish. The story clearly says that Sarah GAVE Hagar so Abe could have relations. Now be honest for once and admit it was WRONG.
      
      Now tell me, why is it god always talks to rich powerful jewish men ? Is it right for God to be friends with Abe, even though he has hundreds of slaves and rapes them ?
      
      ! DId i also mention that he abandons Hagar and Ishmael IN THE DESERT. Is that the action of a good person ?
      ! Did you know that Abe married his half sister - yes Sarah is his half sister.
      ! Did you now that Abe NOT ONCE but TWICE prostitutes his sister to Pharaoh and another king ?

  Christianity is about following Jesus and loving people and tells us to forgive enemies. No more eye for an eye and Jesus said that. You are taking verses here and there out of context and accusing me of all kinds of things.

He is also for the discrimination of people on race and the inequality of women. Just look at the twelve Jewish apostles…

      Bible is the word of God inspired by God. Jesus is God and the creator of the universe. This is bible doctrine. You are in denial of the new covenant in the bible. What you say about following Moses is not what the bible is teaching the way you are twisting it.
      
      You need to learn about the new covenant and its relationship to the Old Testament laws which are a guide to Christ and we're always not sufficient. The shed blood of Christ is the one for all time sacrifice.
      
      You love to assume the bible and New Testament and all are liars. You can't even imagine that God Almighty can inspire and reveal what happened so it can be written down 300 or 3 billion years later and remain accurate. Jesus only dies physically for a short time he is not actually dead and buried.
      
      You can keep acting like the pope and all lofty and a bible scholar but your missing the crux of the word of God pun intended.
      Going to bed soon so I'll get back to you in morning.
      
      I admit I'm no bible scholar or professor but this Jesus salvation stuff is simple and your getting sidetracked by some Jewish rape from ancient world business. If it's really a big rape murder fest I'm sure there going to be some after life judgements going down.
      
      Whatever happened to you I am really sorry. If I could have been there or helped I really would have and I really mean that. I'm certain you are hurting and I can't change the past for you. We didn't come from a rock.

      This is a fair point but its important to consider the meaning in a sociological and historical perspective.
      
      In addition, both the Old and New Testaments condemn the practice of “man-stealing,” which is what happened in Africa in the 19th century. Africans were rounded up by slave-hunters, who sold them to slave-traders, who brought them to the New World to work on plantations and farms. This practice is abhorrent to God. In fact, the penalty for such a crime in the Mosaic Law was death: “Anyone who kidnaps another and either sells him or still has him when he is caught must be put to death” (Exodus 21:16). Similarly, in the New Testament, slave-traders are listed among those who are “ungodly and sinful” and are in the same category as those who kill their fathers or mothers, murderers, adulterers and perverts, and liars and perjurers (1 Timothy 1:8–10).

      The new testament is actually a radical approach to equality.
      
      The cross of Christ is the great equalizer. John 3:16 says, “Whoever believes,” and that is an all-inclusive statement that leaves no one out on the basis of position in society, mental capacity, or gender. We also find a passage in Galatians that speaks of our equal opportunity for salvation. “You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus” (Galatians 3:26-28). There is no sexism at the cross.

God says he knows a person before they are formed in the womb
He says do not kill
Equals abortion
If i were you I would call you a liar

Paul met Jesus you know this so should I call you a liar
You also know he was involved in killing Christians it's in the book of acts
Am I calling you a liar

Where on earth did you get this combo of beliefs? It's a real odd mixture and I know a lot of cults and fringe beliefs. Paul spoke the word of God and wrote it down as inspired. You know I believe that so why do you ask.
The bible is not a newspaper or rag title but you approach it as such.
I urge you to study new covenant and be careful about following corrupted biblical manuscripts and wescott and hort

Please list your background of beliefs otherwise I need to spend a lot of time with you to begin to understand where you are coming from
This is going on and in circles please assist
Do you want to talk on phone or something?

Can't believe you guys are still having a go at this. Whenever Christianity get brought up even in this case the word bible gets brought up in a deal, everyone has a go at it. But when Islam gets mentioned, the whole world breaks down and try to be politically correct. Seriously? What has Christianity last do that's so evil to deserve the harassment? Go deal with the Muslim parasites 1st.

  See what I mean, when you mention the 'M' word, this happens… 'Oh its wrong, oh this, oh that'…. And that is how Islamization begins.
