And this makes it right because....?
It makes it human, no one said anything about right but you.
"Why brand the innocent children as bastards?"
It's not a "brand," it's what they are; it's descriptive.
Sorta like, 'judgmental jerk' That's not a brand, that's descriptive, wouldn't you say?
"That's harsh."
Of course it is. And it's probably even judgmental. But it might make some of these illegitimate kids grow up and want to do the right thing, in defiance of their irresponsible parents, and get married themselves before they have kids.
So you're Omnipotent and know every single child born out of wedlock, what they made with their life? How presumptuous of you to assume to know what they have and have not done in their lives? You seem to be forgetting a little something here...'judge not, lest ye be judged'.
You do not know how to read, think or respond.
And some people, even if they're parents were married, are still bastards.
