Religious beliefs? Bush??? Oh, I forgot about the secret book of the Bible where it tells us to wage war and to support the dealth penalty. And to legalize AK-47's. Yeah. That's why my religious beliefs fall in line with Bush's too. [/quote]
War and Death eh???
Genesis 6:7
"And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. "
Exodus 12:29
"And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle."
Leviticus 20:13
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."[/quote]
That's the OLD covenant. Assuming you're a christian man like our Great Leader, then you would be following the NEW covenant. The jews couldn't follow the old one, so it became obsolete, and a new one was put in place.
Besides, the bible also says "Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property. You can will them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly."
So you're saying that you're alright with slavery too since it's in the old testament?[/quote]
Nope, though I am answering your original post as to were the bible notes violence and destruction.
Edit: Plus... the new testament is not to be taken without considerations from the old. We are not to add nor take away from the bible.[/quote]
Keep in mind that the old testament teaches about destroying your enemies, while the new testament teaches to love your enemies. Apparently, bush isn't following the christian teachings in the bible, but that nonetheless doesn't stop him from convincing you that he's a christian man. Unless the new testament teaches somewhere about the righteousness of war and the death penalty that I must've missed. Maybe it's in the Gospel according to Dubya chapter.
