    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    Well, you certainly don't come close to matching them that's for sure. Your pitiful apologies and excuses for a despot are unhinged.

    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    @Jefferson Why have you quoted a response of mine without any comment? I've already stated that the invasion of Iraq was inexcusable, what more do you want? Care to condemn the invasion of the Ukraine now?

    Religious Zealotry

    The thing is Clete, what some religious zealots advocate and would preferably see in place is an order of governance that would infringe on other people's rights. Okay, it's effectively moot as it won't come about but the principles in play still do. Therefore some of the stuff aired on here can...

    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    Putin, nor his regime were being bullied in any way. He and his cohorts were the ones who invaded a peaceful, sovereign nation with no provocation whatsoever. What in the world is wrong with you?!

    Okay, will see if he posts it again then.

    Religious Zealotry

    Well, you acknowledge that stealing and lying are okay depending on context then, good. Others don't. Neither of us were talking about killing people anyway but obviously if lives were under threat, it could be the only option, if possible.

    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    It was inexcusable the invasion of Iraq. How about you acknowledge the same in regards to Putin's invasion of the Ukraine?

    Religious Zealotry

    How could it be shown that abortion is a right in the OT? I'm not overly familiar with the latter in honesty.

    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    Obviously not but as you've brought it up I was no fan of the invasion of Iraq anyway, at all. The UK was complicit in that also and it had zilch to do with deposing Hussein.

    Ukraine is a WWIII powder keg

    Care to explain what's "decent and honorable" about invading a country that was providing no provocation, bombing it's civilians and killing hundreds of thousands? You are as gullible and ignorant as it can possibly get. And that's putting it kindly.

    Religious Zealotry

    It really is't. Rather, you're probably referring to one passage in Leviticus and using it as a stable for all law on the matter. Don't live in the Bronze age anymore or communal tribes either. Plenty changed since the OT, not everything sure and nor should it but again, you're like the...

    Religious Zealotry

    It really isn't. So, you wouldn't force them on people, only those who decided to stay? Supposing they couldn't leave? You're only underscoring the point of Pure's OP regarding the dangers of zealotry ran amok and why we thankfully have laws in place that prevent such from coming about. They...

    Religious Zealotry

    Trouble with that is, some of the more ardent zealots think that it's actually loving to impose their beliefs on others and deny them any say so.

    Religious Zealotry

    All too often seen in places like Saudi Arabia and with the resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan etc. Places where freedom is a word only and where human rights are an abstract. The only "good" thing with the zealotry displayed under the guise of Christianity here is that the usurping of...

    Religious Zealotry

    As anna has already alluded to, to what degree? Some things are black and white sure. If someone forces themselves on another including in marriage then it's rape. Other things aren't quite so clear cut so I'm reckoning you have shades of grey also. An obvious example being: You're harboring...

    Religious Zealotry

    Homosexuality isn't a crime, simple as. That you think it should be and punishable by death doesn't make it so.
