You’re right! 3 lashes with a wet noodle for me as Anne Landers used to say.
So let’s change it to murder and a white lie. Surely, Protestants understand that there are major sins and minor sins.
That's according to your human logic...And that's reasonable since your teacher (your Catholic religion) has nothing to rely on but its own failed human logic...But what does God say about it??? Did it ever occur to you to seek out what God says???
Pro 6:16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
Pro 6:17
A proud look,
a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
Pro 6:18
An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations,
feet that be swift in running to mischief,
Pro 6:19
A false witness that speaketh lies,
and he that soweth discord among brethren.
And you think one is worse than the other??? God hates all of them...Even little white lies...
Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.
Your religion has planted some serious false teaching into your head...
Why'd we do that? Because a bunch of Roman Catholics make non-scriptural and silly arguments that have already been refuted in previous posts? You'd be better off switching to the whole "infallible magisterium!" and "Peter is the Rock! Peter is the rock!" screaming and shouting.
