That being said, I repeat: traitors deserve death, and in a society based upon Christianity, heretics may be rightly counted as traitors, as they seek the overthrow of the existing social order. The death penalty itself is an entirely Scriptural and moral practice in such cases, presuming of course that due process is observed.

Is there some part of the above that you find to be untrue?

I find it curious you ask what part of the above is "untrue". What true? That it is his opinion? The statement itself? The man stated his opinion and that is what I object to.


My question is, do you agree "traitors deserve death, and in a society based upon Christianity, heretics may be rightly counted as traitors, as they seek the overthrow of the existing social order."
