    Genocide in 1st Samuel 15:2-3

    No, according to the stipulations presented in the article, that would more than likely be considered genocide because it's retributive. I will just anticipate your next question and give you the brief explanation as to why he doesn't feel this does not apply to what's being debated:

    Genocide in 1st Samuel 15:2-3

    I think the part that he was arguing was that the Amalekites weren't be targeted because they were Amalekites. In other words, Israel didn't attack without provocation or justification. We don't see that trend with what is defined as genocide today. For instance, we consider what the Jewish...

    If You Could Have Lunch With The Pope...

    What kinds of questions would you ask? Would you have high expectations in regards to him shedding a different light on Catholicism? Would you be nervous? Excited? Would you really care less and ask if next time you could just hang out with Ringer instead because he has a finer taste in beer?

    Your Ghost Experience

    If she only told us to where she was going then that would have solved about 50% of the debates here on RF. An interesting story along with many of the others that people have shared. I was close with my grandma who died a few years ago and lived with my grandpa for a while after her death to...

    Nuclear Launch Retaliation

    I've always imagined that this mentality is what would start a nuclear holocaust. This is probably the opportune time to practice turning the other cheek. The fate of the world could depend on it. :cover:

    Nuclear Launch Retaliation

    How likely would it be for the U.S. to retaliate a nuclear attack with our own nuclear attack? Do you think we would obliterate the opposition without regard for collateral civilian casualties or would we attempt to work internationally to avoid being labaled (again) as a rogue nation? My...

    Does God Want You to Suffer?

    I don't believe that God wants us to suffer but that doesn't change the fact that He allows it to happen. Why He allows it to happen is something that has been debated long before me and will be debated long after I'm gone. I liked what C.S. Lewis said about suffering:

    Your Ghost Experience

    Anybody have an experience with a ghost whether it's seeing one, communicating with one, or believe in them even without actually having any kind of connection with one? Is it possible to believe in ghosts and not be "spiritual"? I personally have never experienced what I consider to be an...

    Organic Foods No Healthier Than Ordinary Foods

    Well, the article states: They didn't do the research but reviewed the research that was already done. I'm sure with 162 scientific paper over a 50 year period that there were a variety of ways that the research was done. However, I'm not able to comment on the credibility of FSA. I wouldn't...

    Carlin speaks of Religion (tee hee)

    I've never seen anything more of George Carlin besides bits and pieces of his more famous work, including the bits that are in the OP. I fail to see why this was or is considered funny because I would assume that comedians would have had something similar in their routines many years before...

    Organic Foods No Healthier Than Ordinary Foods

    I suppose you two are probably right. I was under the impression that the way our foods are harvested now that they are not as nutrient-dense as they were at one time. I do what I can to make sure I thoroughly wash the fresh produce I buy in the store as to eliminate as much of the potentially...

    Despite O'Reilly -- Amsterdam better than USA!

    Because they don't go by the size of something else that we do here in America. EDIT: I know it doesn't make much sense but let's roll with it anyway. ;)

    You better keep going because I'm catching up. According to my calculations, if you stop posting today than I will reach 13 million sometime between Armageddon and never. Congrats! :bow:

    Wookie's Introduction

    Glad to have you on board, Casey! If you don't mind me asking, what was your religious affiliation (if you had one) before Judaism? What in particular led you down the path that you are on now?
