***My post #11 questioned why Steve Camp would not give biblical references.***

Actually, at this point, I'm questioning why you are not willing to give examples of Civil Disobedience which would prove Camps assertion wrong. Outside of that, I suppose that Camp did not give any Biblical references because your average 5 year old who has heard the many examples of Civil Disobedience of their Biblical heroes could cite them for us and I'd expect that a more grown up Christian would not need Biblical cites for those things which are obvious.

That is just my 2 cents on the matter.

Do you have any examples which would prove Camps words, which are so elementary to Christianity that they really don't need any Biblical cites, wrong? I mean that in the sense of the 2 examples which Camp gave and not in the sense of some other examples which you seem to think would expand the scope of Biblical Civil Disobedience which would force Camp and anyone defending his assertion to exhaustively eliminate every single example of Civil Disobedience known to man.

Getting petty aren't we?

I agree with the two examples he gives, it is the fact that he says these are the only two examples allowed Biblically under strict circumstances that I disagree with!
