This forum seems to be full of people misinterpreting all kinds of scripture.
    How are we misinterpreting scripture? If these cripples were good people, they could pray and God would heal them!

    First of all, if you get sick, its your own damn fault.
    If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee. -- Exodus 15:26
    And as Jesus said to the woman who touched his garment,
    Thy faith hath made thee whole. -- Matthew 9:22, Mark 5:34, Luke 8:48
    Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. -- James 5:14-15

    Leviticus 21:16 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
    Speak unto Aaron, saying, Whosoever he be of thy seed in their generations that hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God.
    For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous,
    Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded, Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken.


    But it is very dark and quiet there so I could chop it up overnight so they can't get in for Sunday service. They would all be stuck outside and we are due very heavy rain

    But Jesus says I have to follow secular law.

    Mathew 22:21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's.

    Do I have to follow secular law if there is no chance of getting caught? Obviously morally the right thing to do is to chop it up and I would just like to stop this outrage if possible.

    Probably the best compromise would be a visit tonight with a Sawz-all. A few strategic cuts in supporting timbers; not all the way through, but enough to reduce integrity by 90 percent.

    This way, as the drooling retard is being pushed up the ramp, the entire structure should collapse as he nears the top, praise Jesus! Any remaining gimps making their way toward the church will flee.

    In Christ

    Fair enough, but he wasn't a cripple BEFORE Nobar kicked him! Not physically anyway.

    Heard that kid didn't pull through. Good times, though.

    Raping single women is wrong, just not as wrong. More details can be found here - http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=61566

    Interesting. So you say there are two punishments, the first being the actual affliction they suffer in the here and now and the second being in the after-life. I might add a third, which is the incessant yammering coming from the christians who like to talk about how god hates them. As an atheist I would say stop all the whining and just use the nuclear option provided legally by the US Government - abortion. I believe my option is much more humane. You are likely more kind to your dogs than you are to your "cripples".

    Now if the cripples do something particularly vile like commit murder, rape a married woman, work on a Sunday, or have s*x with an animal for example, then yes, they should be sent to the gas chamber. However, God is so loving He expects us to wait until they've broken those laws first, and only if those laws are the law of the land.

    This arouses my curioisity. You say that God hates cripples and bastards, yet it is a sin to nuke them in the womb? Then what is the practical application of your beliefs? If you believe God hates them and if you are his disciples then I would think you would be on my team in this regard. Why do you pontificate on this, yet you let us carry out your work for you? You need to align your words and actions.
