Neither Romans nor Corithians spoke for JC or God! Just their own views, superstitions and the social mores of the time.

Biblical Christianity seems to support the stoning to death of adulterous women based soley on the word of an accusing male. And seems also to endorse slavey?

Not everything supported by biblical Christianity has any place in enlightened society or JC's Christianity!

Simply put, a faith based belief in a flat earth never ever made it flat! And the willful refusal to look at the contary medical/scientific evidence. cannot make, natural born like that, homosexuality a sin! Or SSM a sin!

At one time the bible was used to support the slave trade and just as fervently as you support your highly (garbage in, garbage out) warped views. And made interracial marriage a sin.

Paul was a self confessed homosexual and JC seemed to prefer the almost exclusive company of men?

Spenser. Those that persecute others for being, God given different! Will stand before the almighty at the end of life and try as they might to justify themselves and their willful ignorance!

Judge ye not and ye will not be judged!

Hard line ' Bible-believing ' Christians , nowadays , are their own worst enemy.

I cannot support extremes of any persuasion left right or any other direction.

Supporting moderate Independents is nowadays the only viable option , since the Religious RWNJ's appear to think that they own the Liberals.

Neither can I ever support the ALP or Greens !

Alan B,

<<Biblical Christianity seems to support the stoning to death of adulterous women based soley (sic) on the word of an accusing male. And seems also to endorse slavey (sic)?>>

The adulterous woman theology was BEFORE Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. It was under the Old Covenant for the Israelites.

<<Paul was a self confessed homosexual and JC seemed to prefer the almost exclusive company of men?>>

Please provide the New Testament references to support your claim.

Spencer,

About an hour ago, Albanese said that a Labor government would "deal with" the situation, but merely said that nobody should be discriminated against which, to me, given Labor’s history, means Christian schools, say, will not be able to discriminate in accordance with Christian teaching and beliefs. Decent people, including non-Christians, discriminate all the time against people and things they don't believe in or find abhorrent. If you don't discriminate, you turn yourself over to any old fad that comes along. Now, two millennia of teaching, belief and faith is being treated as a fad. Some people are calling Christianity "old fashioned", "out of date".

AlanB is a transformer. He has reinvented himself from a twisted up young man, into a sick and twisted up old man.
Just like the north Vietnamese and the Vietcong, a master at laying booby traps.
Take note of the good guys, they laid booby traps likewise, along their own trails: that worked a treat. Do that…or Just ignore him.

Dan,

Ignoring Alan is probably your best suggestion. I couldn't make head nor tale of his above comment. When he was absent for so long, I thought that he had popped his clogs. But he's back with the same old same old. I hope he gets enjoyment out of his posts as long as he is able to; because the rest of us are not benefiting from them.
