First off, I never said it was actually "murder to stop a murderer". The 6th commandment says, "thou shalt not kill".

Kill, not murder.

My Bible (NIV) says "You shall not murder."

It's pretty hard to make the case that the Bible proscribes all killing when, in the same part of the Bible, God orders the execution of people guilty of a range of crimes, and orders Israel to totally annihilate its enemies.

Amen to that...I actually had a

liberal once try to tell me

that Bush couldn't be a Christian due to that commandment..

I of course explained "Thou Shall Not Murder"

but he was so ignorant of the word of God..he couldn't

understand it...
