I was asking you to make a global moral commitment, rather than a nuanced, “What’s the letter of the law?” quibble.

But let’s ask a different question. Should every kid who cusses out his parents in a fit of temper over losing the car keys be executed?

What does God think is just? Hmmm?

Yes, the state has the right to set levels of punishment. When God set them, He took cussing out your parents very seriously. He took killing others very seriously. He took homosexual acts very seriously.

That we do not reflects our immorality, not our goodness.
