ROTFLMAO--I can tell you're a Christian by your charity (love) /extreme sarcasm

you, my friend, are wound much too tight. Read the book of Esther to see how a concubine (prostitute) saved the Jews.

The sin please? i.e., who committed the sin Sarai, Abraham or the nursemaid? and which sin is worse? Fornicating or killing the product of the fornication? If pharisees like yourself would be more accepting of the Mary Magdalene's of the world abortion would never be an issue.

I suppose you believe that all Arabs (sons of Abraham thru the handmaid) are the "ongoing consequence of sin."

We're all sinners--why not try a little forgiveness instead of blaming the problems of the Middle East on a little lovin'.

Both. Sin is separation from God. All sin is equally repugnant to him.

That's true and why I need Jesus.

I think you do not understand the heart of man. Abortion will always be an issue as long as man insists on doing his own will apart from God.

you believe that all Arabs (sons of Abraham thru the handmaid) are the "ongoing consequence of sin."

Yes.

We're all sinners

Absolutely.

why not try a little forgiveness

I do on a daily basis because I have to. Jesus forgives me daily and asks that I do the same.

instead of blaming the problems of the Middle East on a little lovin'.

This involved no "lovin'". It was Abraham taking matters in his own hands because he didn't trust God to fulfill His word. Plain and simple.

forgiveness does not invalidate the rules G_d has clearly set for salvation.

I could care less what some unwashed drugged out freaks do. They are responsible for their own souls.

I do care when a clear Biblical story of sin and selfishness is distorted or when the 'everyone is a sinner' card is played. Jesus told Mary Magdalene to go a sin no more, so that she might be truly saved.
