re: #340 shotgun

It’s impossible to have an objective moral standard from a materialist worldview. Most materialists argue that whatever promotes the survival of the species or some form of continuation of life to be the highest moral good. Even in that case the good Dr. would pretty much be the scumiest guy I’ve read about.

Murder is murder, whether it’s a human that weighs 2 grams or 70 kilograms. What surprises me is the indignation by most commenters here about how despicaple the statements of the pro-death-to-abortionist-crowd. On what basis do most of you ground your moral claims? re: #4 Jetpilot1101

This type of behavior is inexcusable. I would recommend to many of these people who most likely call themselves “Christians” to dust of their Bibles and take a good long look at Exodus Chapter 20, specifically verse 13: “Thou shalt no kill”. You can’t have it both ways; either the Bible is right or you are. That aught to make some heads explode.

You can’t read or quote that well, Jetpilot1101 . The verse (mis)quoted by you, doesn’t read “Thou shalt no kill”. It reads “Don’t do murder” by the much more accurate and mainstream International Version, or by the most accurate English version, the NASB. No heads exploding here.
