Becoming the Right Person vs. Doing Right for Right Reasons

[Tassman]

I am just pointing to the fact that you are avoiding substance by going for personal attacks. Calling it a "net nanny thing" is just more of the same. And are we here to mind our own business?

Denigration in lieu of substantive argument is standard practice among certain theists around here. But then Charles, we must try to be understanding. It's all they've got.

Not going to argue this with you chuck. Stay in the car. Tassman's entire argument is a logical fallacy "Jesus never mentioned it so it isn't a sin". No need to respond with substance if Tassman has none to respond to.

Charles, why are you assuming that Sparko is doing any such thing? Perhaps there are other reasons than "avoiding substance" for "going for personal attacks." Please keep that in mind. Why are you being so judgmental?

Bravo! Say a bunch of false crap, then crow in vindication when they point out how stupid you're being. You've a certain low cunning, I'll give you that.

There's nothing "low" about my cunning.

I think Tassman writes for the Babylon Bee. This sounds like his argument:

Jesus Never Said ANYTHING About Felony Home Invasionhttp://babylonbee.com/news/jesus-nev...home-invasion/

Whoever wrote that forgot Jesus said to forgive those who trespass against you.

Like I said, argument from silence. Yet another logical fallacy by Tassman. And your link to a modern Jew's opinion telling you what the ancient hebrews believed is just as much a fallacy. it even says, "At the same time, feticide is prohibited by Jewish law,"

and here is a counter article saying that Jewish law forbids abortion: http://www.chabad.org/library/articl...n-Abortion.htm
"If someone is out to kill you or other innocent people, you need to protect those innocent lives, even if it means killing the murderer. This applies to an abortion, as well. A fetus is a potential life, so we are not allowed to kill a fetus."

Sort of! http://www.myjewishlearning.com/arti...ewish-thought/

It sure doesn't seem that the Jewish State is overly concerned with "feticide".
