Why are many Christians so intolerant of other religions and spiritual paths?

You support war and capital punishment. You supported Iraq and Afghanistan. No one from either country did a damn thing to you personally or your family. Yet you had/have no problem with the killing that went on there.

You going to tell me you did/don't support WW1, WWII, Korea?

You going to tell me you don't support capital punishment and wish Canada would bring it back?

come on wally, is that all you got? Hand out reds? Deny what I have said. Go ahead. Or.......I will take your silence as an admittance that you do in fact support the killing of your fellow human beings. It's not your alone in this. Many people come up with justifications as to why someone or a group of someones deserves to die.

where do you stand on self defense, and i'm not being arguementative here, i agree with not killing in
wars, or the killing of others, but what about defending oneself, in or out of war.

an unprovoked attack , in a warlike situation, what is the alternative but to
defend.

I've been very clear from the first time I came to this forum. No to killing another human being for any reason. Period.

and BTW, I will not justify my answer anymore. Tired of it,. Believe me or not, I don't care.

I support leaving others alone if they leave me alone.

i do believe you, but i just don't know what that answer would be, as it is a realistic question, and
has happened many times throughout history, i don't know another answer but to defend.

a human can't just 'do nothing' when being attacked.

you don't have to justify your answer, just wonder what you would do if attacked, could you kill in
self defense, or kill to save a family member from being killed?

Never said I wouldn't defend, just won't kill. Mind you, they may wish I had killed them.

Wasn't my call.


didn't ask if it was your call. Asked if you supported it.

worse than death, yeah, i get it, just make sure you stop before their heart stops. lol

If it came down to one of my grandkids I wouldn't give a sh*t if they died or not, you do whatever is swiftest and safest to get rid of the threat.

depends on each situation, as it also could be easy to shoot the legs out from under them, but
let them live, and other such situations, if death comes to the attacker, fine, but i would be
hesitant to deliberately kill someone if i didn't have to, in fact i would prefer no one die.

threats can be dealt with without killing anyone, but if the attacker was going to kill me,
or mine, and we had no weapons, and he/she did, then we would probably die, its about that simple.

yes swiftest and safest, doesn't have to be death.

Why are so many Muslims chopping off the heads of others?

Because they're a peaceful, tolerant religion.

Christ Almighty, isn't a man entitled to his own opinion?


Not if his opinion differs from that of the ruling left wing establishment and anything that is currently trendy to the left.

In Canada and much of the rest of the modern West, you can have whatever opinion you want - so long as it is left wing, trendy and politically correct.
