I think the other thing that needs to be expressed in thread like this is that it is plausible to have more than one pride. Such that a person could have both white pride and black pride, or whatever. The inference seems to be if you have white pride, you disdain all others and see whites as...
How does it invariably lead to separation and sense of self-superiority?
And what makes for "better served" in taking pride in some things over other things?
So far, you've not presented an argument, but have made some interesting claims that are thus far just opinions.
So, why not take pride in skin color? Or if you do, what is wrong with that?
IMO, it becomes wrong if it is explicitly (also) stating superiority. If it is not, then I don't see what the problem is, other than historical issues and inferences by others, from hearing anyone that claims 'white...
Not when I take actual Innocence into mind. The human judgment of innocence doesn't suffice, which is why no killing makes divine sense. If I ignore the divine Reason, I can see what you are trying to get across, but wouldn't play willy nilly with calling Capital punishment an accident when it...
Then I see this as backtracking from your earlier assertion: God is the creator of all languages every letter in ever word is from God.
All books, ever. Obviously, your doublespeak can't be of any help in supporting it. Such as: God creates every word, but God doesn't create every word, but...
I think the thing that makes this challenging, more convoluted, is that some people may actually be okay with being slaves. I realize how controversial that is, but for right now I stand by it. I think in cases where people are clearly not okay with it, there is something unmistakably wrong in...
So abortion would not be murder. All we need then are laws that killing sprees are not murder, and they are not, right? Which technically we already have such laws in place, just arbitrarily applied.
All I know is I'm glad the demiurge is not my (our) Creator. It does help explain how this...
Because it opens the door to all sorts of interpretations for what makes for justifiable killing. Therefore, whoa to those that seek to override it with feeble logic.
The commandment - thou shall not work on the Sabbath can also be overcome with feeble logic, but is likely (and by that I mean...
You don't know this. Ted Bundy knew exactly what he was doing in the same way a State knows exactly what it is doing when it kills a convicted criminal (who is actually innocent).
And this accident, happens to be murder. It's either murder or Capital punishment. Both are killing. To excuse it...
Such feeble logic. All killing sprees could be relegate to 'accident' under such logic.
And if killer executes people that killer views as violating (literally anything) it is not a killing spree. It's just punishment, not killing.
It also says (in some sources) you shall not kill. The idea that we have two words, with same result, but different intent, means we get to play god on matters of life and death. Murder being "unlawful" but then only some people, who may not be godly (even a little bit) get to decide which of...
