  Farkel,

  You don't even think about how much life has improved over the centuries.

  Why can't you see the good?

  How long have you LIVED
  and how long has God LIVED?

  Who is like God?

  Do you have any verses to cite where God actually weeps over that harvest of millions of dead bodies he reaps every year, Shelby? Well?

  I think you got the wrong 'god', Doug. My Father is a God of the living. Death... however, is the one who is 'never satisfied'.

  Let anger alone and leave off your rage, Doug. Please. For it is of NO benefit to you. You are going to embarrass yourself again, and I truly don't want that for you. Truly.

  Peace.

  Your servant and a slave of Christ,

  Shel

  : You don't even think about how much life has improved over the centuries.

  Red herring.

  : Why can't you see the good?

  Red herring.

  : How long have you LIVED

  Red herring.

  : and how long has God LIVED?

  Red herring.

  : Who is like God?

  Red herring.

  I suggest you actually take the time to look up "red herring." When you can actually do that, then please look back at my argument and address THAT.

  Farkel,

  You have empathy where did it come from?
  You were made in God's image.

  Empathy is very painful, but to loose it would be to loose goodness too.

  Think! Who has experienced more pain than God, who has Empathy to the perfect degree?

  How long have you LIVED
  and how long has God LIVED?

  Because THAT... was 'justified'; THIS... apparently for some... is not.

  Is it for you?

  Shelby,

  Your love is showing again.

  Nobody can take exception to your comparisons. Killing is dirty and the ultimate crime against another, no matter if it is Jah of Armies, his representitives or "earthly governments" carrying out their will.

  So, where do we go from here? Reality maybe. We humans and god (of the bible) have been killing since we started recording our collective antics on this earth.

  In view of this unasailable fact, killing will continue, until either mans will to do so is crushed, or God decides to take charge of our very 'thinking/reasoning'....I hope he does. Until this 'paradise' dream comes true, whats ya gonna do bad girl?

  Turn the other cheek, yeah I know that answer. Or will you face reality, and see we are not living in that paradise, here right now?

  Until we do, we better do everything in our power, to control, monitor, and yes destroy any other human or 'fanatic' faction, that openly promots killing of inocents, neighbors, communities, governments, who do not espouse or practice such....unless called upon by these barbaric fanatics, to defend their very lives.

  This is the reality, whether you want to face it or not.

  Sorry it has to be so cold and dark...but it is a fact. Pray, for it to be different, good. Wish that it wasn't so, good. But it does not change the truth of what we face.

  Shelby,

  As I recall the Japanese attacked us at Pearl Harbor. What do you suggest we should have done. Do you think we should have prayed for them and demonstrated our love for them as they invaded California?

  The terrorists, the ones who did it, think it's not justified? Maybe you better elaborate.

  How long have you LIVED
  Long enough to recognize a deeply entrenched myth when I see it.

  and how long has God LIVED?
  He has yet to start.

  Who is like God?
  Everybody. God is made in our image. You certainly have molded him into yours, right?

  "Because THAT (the bomb on Hiroshima)... was 'justified'; THIS (the destruction of the WTC0... apparently for some... is not."

  Is it for you?

  Neither was 'justified'... for ME. But since when have you been concerned with what I think... with regard to ANYTHING? What's your point, if indeed you have one...
