Angryoldfatman, you have to understand - James is an atheist. Pretty much every atheist I’ve ever seen was either too dumb or too intellectually lazy to bother actually considering things like “circumstances,” “context,” etc. etc. when dealing with the Bible. For them, about the best they can manage is to link to one of those “Big list of a billyun and one bibul conterdikshuns!” on some other atheist site on the internet, and let it make their “arguments” for them.

Alright then, give me the context and circumstances that make the killing of those children "good".

Oh don’t you worry there, Titus. I’m all too familiar with the Gnus; I deal with an entirely different level of them at Telic Thoughts.
These here, who are mostly Randians, are a bunch of lightweights.

James is an atheist. Pretty much every atheist Ive ever seen was either too dumb or too intellectually lazy to bother actually considering things like circumstances, context, etc. etc. when dealing with the Bible. For them, about the best they can manage is to link to one of those Big list of a billyun and one bibul conterdikshuns! on some other atheist site on the internet, and let it make their arguments for them. Context, sarcasm, circumstances, irony, metaphor, analogy, allegory, and much more. But not just in dealing with the Bible, but everything else. For example, it is a frequent occurrence that if you put the proposition to an atheist "if P then Q", he will think you are affirming P. So, not only context and circumstances, but conditionals and hypotheticals are misconstrued in the atheist mind. It's amazing how much damage the human brain undergoes during the transition to atheism.
