“So, a person does something out of their total control and they should be put to death for it? (I think they should be in prison the rest of their lives).... this is why people are running away from religion in droves....Full of fail...or at least your interpretation of it. “
Sorry you feel that way. . . but here’s how I would phrase it:
So, a person commits a cold blooded murder and should be put to death for it? Yes.
Why you see a life in prison as some compassionate alternative to God’s standards, I don’t know.
Yes, I agree if it was a crime of passion and the person was sane..
Why you see a life in prison as some compassionate alternative to God’s standards, I don’t know.
God's standard?? Man wrote the Bible...some things in the Bible should be taken literal(Tho shall not kill etc) and some not..The Bible has way too many contradiction to be taken literal...isn't there osme scripture that you should kill your wayward daughter? Camel humpers 3000 years ago knew nothing of causes of mental illness...they thought these people were possessed by demons and goblins..
Can't believe God would want a person dead due to something that was out of their control such as a severe case of pscyhosis...which... didn't God allow that to happen??? Why is God then screwing this innocent person??
