Gumby,
Schizm, how many damn times do I need to remind you that Jehover ain't sposed to kill little boys cuz a what their daddy's did? I've quoted that scripture to you over and over and you never get it. Kids don't suffer from their parents error. I'll bet you $2.50 that the lords book says that.
As usual you're confusing the matter, Gumby. True, children aren't to be held responsible for the bad things their parents do, but that doesn't save them from having to suffer the ill effects brought on by their parents not having acted responsibly. A child and its welfare ARE the parents responsibility--which is one reason they are called "parents". Adam's offspring aren't accounted as being at fault for their father having disobeyed God, but they unavoidably have had to suffer the consequences of his irresponsible act. Your claim that Adam's offspring are being held accountable for what their father did is nonsense. And, yes, we have considered this point before, but you're simply being unreasonable in refusing to acknowledge the truth of the matter. I've given you comparable examples which demonstrate how a child can be made to suffer as a result of a parent's foolish act, but you've conveniently ignored what I've said. But, I'll say it again anyway. Example #1: It's widely known that while a child is developing inside its mother's womb that serious consequences can result if the mother smokes tobacco etc. Of course nobody, other than you and a few other nincompoops, would blame the child for what has happened. Too, most people would fault the parent, rather than God, for being so foolish as to do something that would harm their own child. Example #2: A child is killed as a result of its parent's reckless driving habits. Who's at fault, the parent or the child? The parent is, of course. Yet, the child had to suffer the consequences of its parent's actions. Again, nobody, other than you and a few other nincompoops, would blame the child for what has happened; and most people would fault the parent, rather than God for the death of the child.
Even as I've already said, you're confusing the matter. You have no real understanding of what you keep bringing up. God doesn't blame a man's offspring for the bad things the father does. If the father is a theif, then the father is held accountable for being a theif. The child isn't held accountable and punished for the crime the father has committed, nor has Adam's offspring been held accountable and punished for Adam having been disobedient.
Either you're too dim-witted to understand, or you're nothing but a jokester. Which is it, Gumby? Are you simply a jokester, just having fun by drawing me out with your supposed objections?
I'd like to think that you're not merely having fun with all of this, but I'm not really sure where you're coming from. Of course there's a third possibility as to why you can't seem to get the point, which has to do with the stand you've chosen to take. Because of the stand you've taken you've got to somehow keep up with the charade, all the while continually trying to convince yourself that you're way of thinking is correct, or otherwise you'll be in a heap of trouble mentally. It would be best for you, Gumby, if you'd come face to face with reality and stop fooling yourself. You're leading a miserable existence, and it will dawn on you sooner or later.
Schizm
