@Verbalaesthet@Ernest1588761 yeah ok. If one hasn't read Matthew, then it's confusing. That happens when one doesn't read the New Testament, but picks contradictions from the internet others have "found".
@Verbalaesthet@Ernest1588761 If Peter was simply contradicting the gospel of Matthew in his Acts 1 speech, everyone would have deconverted in the first century. But it's very easy to understand what's meant in context.
@Verbalaesthet@Ernest1588761 you added "for himself". No such words in the original text. Or you are using a bad translation. Peter is using figurative language like one could say: his speeding bought him a ticket even though no one buys a speeding ticket.
@steverabinow@Ernest1588761 you a biblical literalist? headlong (in the original meaning) can mean one is lying flat on his face. It doesn't just mean falling head first. It could also be an expression. You're grasping at straws, especially since we have the full context of what happened.
@Verbalaesthet@Ernest1588761 His money was used for the purchase. Matthew 27:5-10 tells you exactly what happened. You'd know that already if you had done just a little bit of research.
@Ernest1588761 Bodies, dead for a while, inflate because of internal gases from their decomposition. They don't need much to burst open. And a rope exposed to the elements tends to break (or if someone cut it to bury the body). Judas' hanging description is too accurate to be pure invention.
@man_of_options Can become one flesh with someone when your attention is divided. It's also socially wrong as there's 50% men 50% women. Polygyny breaks the social fabric. A few men get many wives which leads to many men having trouble finding wives. Same kind of people crying about hypergamy.
@retard_arena@KatelynTweeter There's a difference. It's state approved murder. When Germany was beaten in ww2, were every soldier who fought for the Nazis hanged for killing for them. No since they were following their state laws. When judging a person's moral culpability, you take into account the context.
@salmon13528@ZELLKLUMPEN If it gets to that question, you already failed to protect your kid. Teach girls about modesty, and don't leave them alone with adults you can't fully trust. Don't ever leave them alone with anyone is even better.
@luvmyjaide@user93819947748 Don't use your courage as an excuse to lack compassion toward those weaker than you. Try to build a bridge instead. Yes, abortion is objectively murder, but many who get an abortion are victims too.
@luvmyjaide@user93819947748 Plenty of those were barely adults or not even, were told it was completely normal by everyone around them and that it wasn't a life. Told a young woman once that abortion was murder and she broke in tears. She was misinformed like all the vaxxed people.
@luvmyjaide@user93819947748 Seems like you're using your strength in resisting abortion despite living a bad situation as a tool to look down on other victims which lacked that same strength. I hope you get all the love you need. Abortion will end by promoting loving families, not through political bans.
@luvmyjaide@user93819947748 Let me be clear. Both rape and abortion are evil in any case. I'm not justifying anything. But I don't think it helps anyone to say abortion is worse than rape. You are ignoring the spiritual damage of the act as if damage to a physical body is the only thing that counts.
@luvmyjaide@user93819947748 It's important to express clearly our condemnation of rape as pro-abortion people use that as justification for killing babies. Saying abortion is worse than rape is seen by them as support for rape.
