Quote:How can you separate people from their beliefs or philosophy? That informs and motivates their behavior.


Because *any* type of horrid behavior can, and has been performed by people of different, or no faith.

Quote:You can tear apart what Davis said, sure. And the South was filled with preachers and Biblical "experts" who would back him up.

You can legitimately call my argument a case of no true Scotsman but that does not change the fact that the same practice (different people reading the same philosophy/faith) can draw hugely different conclusions. No matter what the philosophy.

Quote:Anything in the Bible is susceptible to differing interpretation.


As is anything in the marxist writings which can lead on one side to democratic socialist government that respects rights and on the other can lead to soviet style communism.

You had a point somewhere?

Quote:Slavery is a perfect example: you have folks who stridently believed the Bible supported their position on either side of the issue.

Again... other than picking on Christians for something that every philosophy or faith on earth has done do you have a point?

Quote:Ultimately it all comes down to an individual's interpratation of the Bible.

Again... other than picking on Christians for something that every philosophy or faith on earth has done do you have a point?

Quote:One need only look at politics today to see that folks on either side of the political equation use their interpretation of the Bible to back up their position.

Again... other than picking on Christians for something that every philosophy or faith on earth has done do you have a point?


Quote:It's the ultimate rorchsach test. You can glean from it what you want to glean from it.

Quote:Sorry, but bronze age folklore from thousands of years ago, that nobody has ever been able to agree on its meaning even to this day, shouldn't be used as a determining factor for what health care hospitals provide, period. The less influence it has on our society as a whole, the better off we will all be.

But that's not up to you, it should be up to those hospitals and those folks who fund them and follow "bronze age folklore"
