Fundamentalists know they are right because they have read the truth in a holy book and they know, in advance, that nothing will budge them from their belief. The truth of the holy book is an axiom, not the end product of a process of reasoning. The book is true, and if the evidence seems to contradict it, it is the evidence that must be thrown out, not the book.

Sorry but I don't understand your question as you keep asking it. All I can say is no human is God and we do not have the wisdom and insight to the future as he does and we do not have the right to deside on the who has the right to live on this earth. He tells us not to kill and that I will not do.

Perhaps you just don't understand my answers? I see that is a problem for you, not me. I am not going to change any answer just to please you or say what you'd like me to say. Fair enough?

Are you refering to something Jesus said?

Originally in the ten commandments. Then yes his son Jesus reaffirmed that law a couple different times.
Now yes many of God's people did kill as in protecting the nation of Israel that has been discussed here. But was that command given by a government, ruler, king, president or the leader of an army? No it was a direct command from God.
Up to this date God has not given a direct command for ones he calls his people to fight at all. In fact his son brought this out the night he was arrested and said his followers would not fight as his kingdom is not a part of this world and his followers to remain neutral with the worlds affairs such as war.

"Loyalty to Christ is not the only reason that true Christians are neutral. Unlike ancient Israel, which had a God-given land allocation, we are part of an international brotherhood. (Matthew 28:19; 1 Peter 2:9) Thus, if we were to rally to the side of local political parties, both our freeness of speech in regard to the Kingdom message and our Christian unity would be severely compromised. (1 Corinthians 1:10) Furthermore, during war time, we would be fighting against fellow believers, whom we are commanded to love. (John 13:34, 35; 1 John 3:10-12) With good reason, then, Jesus told his disciples to lay down the sword. And he even told them to love their enemies.—Matthew 5:44; 26:52"

LV book.

You need to read post my friend. It has been discussed many times and that is not what this thread is about.
