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.

Getting petty aren't we?

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.

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!

No. You are intending to hold Steve Camp to an unreasonable standard and you aren't even correctly using the doctrine of Sola Scriptura. I'm pointing out the obvious pettiness of your attempt.

***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!***

Great. For him to PROVE his assertion that they are the only two, he would have to exhaustively take the millions of examples of Civil Disobedience and Biblically prove them wrong. This is unreasonable and petty on your part.

It would be much easier for you to simply provide the single example which proves him wrong. You have already failed with 2 from the Bible itself.

Do you have a single example?
