Do You Devour Unborn Children?

From the holy bible
"shall the sword devour forever? Do you
not know that it will be bitter in the
end? How long will you refrain from
telling the people to turn back from
following their brothers?"
the end? How long will you refrain from
telling the people to turn back from
following their brothers?"
you love all words that devour, o
deceitful tongue
there is a kind of {man} whose teeth are
{like} swords and his jaw teeth {like}
knives, to devour the afflicted from the
earth and the needy from among men.
No longer devour men and no longer bereave
your nation of children,' declares the
lord god
and the dragon stood before the woman who
was about to give birth, so that he might
devour her child.

Hamster mothers eat their babies mainly
when the babies are ill or injured and the
mother know they won't be able to survive.
They don't do this because of hate, just
because of caution.

We are not hamsters and 98.5% of abortions
are done for convenience not necessity

It seems like it was a very reasonable
response to your post. What does eating
babies have to do with abortion? What
does your holy bible have to do with
anything?

Devour dosnt nesicarrily mean "eat" in
biblical language. Since when do swords
eat people?

original aramaic.

The bible wasn’t originally written in
aramaic. Hebrew greek & latin were
its original format – not sure about the
dead sea scrolls but it was before aramaic
that anyway.

Gosh, silly me. Didn't realise it was the
old testament.
They killed quite a few babies in the old
testament, didn't they?

I make as much sense as you do. Religion
is the last refuge of the lost and lonely.

"it's what they did 2000 years ago, so i'm
gonna do it now" is a pretty pathetic way
to live your life. If you believe in
religion and think about it, and still
think it's right, that's fine -- but then
you don't shove it down people's throats.
You accept that other people have
different ways of seeing the world and
different beliefs about what is right and
wrong.

Nope wrong again they didn’t do it that
way 2000 years ago. Christianity has
never been accepted by society never.
It has never been tried by any secular
society. We are as close now as we have
ever been to christianity that is why
there is so much opposition to it and why
there is so many good things in society,
respect of religious belief, equality for
women, equality for all races etc

It means "that does not follow." it's
latin, I think...But I don't understand
your (sami) last post, what does secular
society have to do with christianity, the
whole point of secular society is that it
is not based on god or religion.

Secularism
Posted: 06-10-04 10:52am

|

Secularism affirms that this life is the
only one of which we have any knowledge
and human effort should be directed wholly
towards its improvement.
Affirming that morality is social in
origin and application, secularism aims at
promoting the happiness and well-being of
mankind. Secularism demands the complete
separation of church and state and the
abolition of all privileges granted to
religious organisations.
Secularism affirms that progress is
possible only on the basis of equal
freedom of speech and publication; that
the free criticism of institutions and
ideas is essential to a civilised state.
It asserts that supernaturalism is based
upon ignorance and assails it as the
historic enemy of progress.
It seeks to spread education, to promote
the fraternity of all peoples as a means
of advancing universal peace to further
common cultural interests and to develop
the freedom and dignity of mankind.
To remove an impediment to these
objectives, we demand the complete
separation of church and state and the
abolition of all privileges granted to
religious organisations.
These are the common goals of secularists
everywhere.
