      Food for thought, that.
      1Cor 15:34 Come to your senses as you ought and stop sinning; for I say to your shame, there are some who know not God.

      Scripture before Tradition:
      but that won't prevent others from
      taking it upon themselves to deprive you
      of the right to call yourself Christian.

        So god said to stone people to death for their sins and god also said don't stone people to death for their sins? Is that that moral standard you're always arguing for? How you can even believe in such a god that would have you stoned to death is beyond me.

          Why, you don't like YHWY's morality?

            Nah, I prefer YHWH's morality. YHWY's morality feels like too much of an off brand to me.

              Far better than yours (only spelled correctly). And I love His NEW Covenant even better than the Old!

                But you will still get stoned for your sins Jim, so to speak, if you don't repent, in the future Theocracy. We call that HELL...
                Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

                  But God didn't say "stoned" which is what JimL kept asking.

                      Depends on the sin. And if they repented. That's what the sacrifices were for, you know. Actually, maybe instead of asking stupid questions, you should go and read the bible so you know what it says?

                        uh no. Jesus condemned hypocritically stoning people to death. They were willing to overlook their own sins, and stone a poor woman to death for hers. Part of the problem with the old covenant is that they did such things. The law was meant to show them that they were all sinners and that they needed God, but many took it as a way to hurt others while excusing themselves. Jesus came to fulfill the law and show them the better way.

                          I'm thinking Jim pretty much stays stoned.

                              Jesus loves them and wants to forgive them, and tells them to sin no more. Repentance is vital.

                                Whereas your biggest problem is snipping posts (in this instance an entire sentence reduced to three words) in order to make a smart-alecky comment.

                                Again: “Buttigieg clearly views scripture differently from those who want to condemn homosexuality, just as South Africa used it to proclaim the Immorality Act condemning mixing the races. Scripture has been very helpful in validating the personal prejudices of the day, whether homosexuality, witch-killing, slave ownership, or resisting female emancipation.
