"Now.... what was your point again??"

If you're going to operate on the intellectual level of a six-year-old, there's no point in even trying to have a discussion.

When people were hiding Jews from the Nazis during WWII, and they lied to the Nazis to keep them safe, do you suppose that made them dishonest?

There is a difference between pushing a little old lady into the path of a speeding bus and pushing a little old lady out of the path of a speeding bus.

My point was that a NARROW looking at Scripture can produce absolutist statements.

When studying the whole book, however, we see that going outside the LETTER of the Law, to access the Spirit of it, is sometimes neccessary.

There are some really strong LETTER types on both sides of the aisle in these C vs E threads.
