I also find it interesting that you want to limit things to the New Testament. Is the Old Testament not the Word of God?

So you are saying the New Testament is NOT the Word of God?

No. In fact, I cited the New Testament.

The New Testament does not require soldiers to quit their work, nor does it suggest governments cannot arm men to do violence against bad people. In fact, you cannot have a country without the willingness to defend that country, which in turn requires an acceptance of war.

I’ve been in war, as was my Dad (who was killed in his third), and as were my son, oldest daughter, son-in-law and the husbands of both of my nieces. War is not pretty. But war is vastly better than living under Islam, as expressed by the muslims in Afghanistan, or Egypt, or other hard-core muslim countries. If I ever had any doubt, my tour in Afghanistan would have cured them. Perhaps the Pope would like to go preach in the towns of Afghanistan.

And perhaps the Pope ought to look at the Swiss Guard...

Why do Catholics on FR always resort to these absurd little comments instead of actually responding to what is said to them? Where did he say that the New Testament isn’t the word of God? And didn’t Roger provide you with the verses you wanted? Why didn’t you comment on that? And why didn’t you respond when he asked you why you wanted to limit the word of God to the New Testament?

Please, be rational.
