LATEST: Deadly al-Qaeda strike using bio agents or diseases 'inevitable',

well we are now getting somewhere at last. What do you mean by that? I presume that you are saying that they are "flexible", and that us "fickle humans" can interpret them as we wish?
In which case I can go and enjoy an extra marital shag without fear of being crucified?

Dodgy, no they are not flexible. Which bit of bare minimum dont you understand? Let me paraphrase at the very least you have to observe the Ten Commandments

Mark 10

17As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. "Good teacher," he asked, "what must I do to inherit eternal life?"
18"Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good—except God alone. 19You know the commandments: 'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, do not defraud, honor your father and mother.'[d]"

20"Teacher," he declared, "all these I have kept since I was a boy."

21Jesus looked at him and loved him. "One thing you lack," he said. "Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."

22At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!"

24The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, "Children, how hard it is[e] to enter the kingdom of God! 25It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

26The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, "Who then can be saved?"

27Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."

Apart from the fact that Jesus thought he was Robin F****** Hood this does not tell me anything. Either the ten commandments are to be obeyed or they are not. You do not advocate adultery under any circumstances, yet you advocate killing. What is to be? One law for the Christians and another for the muslims?

Dodgy, what do you hope to achieve? Chico is a feqwit of the first order, leave him to his delusions.

Ok I now you agents are a breed apart so I going to have one last stab. You obey all the Ten Commandments. Ok the sixth commandment lets deal with that - You are going about your lawful business, you hear that the guy next to you is plotting to kill your boss.

Scenario 1 - You do nothing and the guy kills your boss. You are guilty of breaking that commandment. By you inaction a life has been taken.

Scenario 2 - You confront the guy next to you, it turns nasty and in the struggle as you defend yourself he receives a blow and it kills him. You are not guilty of the breaking the commandment as it was not your intention to kill him and you intend was to prevent him from carrying out his murderous intention.

Scenario 3 - You confront him, he has a change of heart he does not kill your boss and everyone is happy. Ideally this would be ending everyone would look for however some people are plain evil, Saddam, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mad Mullahs etc and no amount of diplomacy, hand wringing will change that so do you as a government stand aside while they kill 6 million Jews, 1 million Muslims etc etc

Another Pinko Tree hugging Biblical misquote, it should have actually read ...

It is easier for to stick a needle in a camel than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

The Holy Book Of Pruffock (The Solid Book which cannot be found today)

If there is any doubt that rich people will go to Heaven you only have to realise that we are told the Poor shall inherit the Earth, but conspicuous by its absence no mention of the poor entering Heaven.

I guess God was afraid they might bring down the tone of Heaven,would be bad for the ratings you know.

As I am sure you're well aware, the 2nd commandment reads:

"You shall not make for yourself a graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:"

Why then do you biblebashers odorn churches with images of Christ and The Virgin Mary? Is this not a henious sin? By ignoring this commandment, are you not, like the rest of us, picking and choosing which bits you choose to follow?

Have you been to my church?

[ALM]

Yes. Now answer the question.

Interesting that Islam, as I understand, forbids Idolatory and it does seem a bit daft to pray to statues.

But they do make quite nice ornaments.

What about

Scenario 4 - You confront the guy next to you, it turns nasty, you aim a killer blow but miss and kill a passing child. The childs parents come and kill you, but in doing so kill lots of your friends etc...

Where does it end?
