If he were found guilty, but stayed an official of the government, yes. If he were suspected, but the crime were not investigated because the government would fear the result, again yes. If the crime were investigated, he were found guilty, and were punished accordingly, no.

He gave the example that when Kennedy was assassinated, they accepted a large collection of indulgences to save his soul. Is this true?
But RHP sells indulgences.
Indulge in chess.
Originally posted by lucifershammerAh well, that's a bit more complicated. If he simply remained an official, I'd say yes. If he applied for a similar or the same job after getting his punishment and rehabilitation, and he were seen as qualified (including personal qualities like being trustworthy), I don't think I would object to letting him get the job (although a lot of factors would play in here, and one would have to look at the individual case).

Even a person who is undergoing punishment can be productive. If the Federal Reserve had a brilliant economist who is incarcerated for a serious crime, would you object to his contributing his talents to society? Does the fact that he is in the employ of the government imply that it condones his crimes?
Originally posted by DoctorScribblesNever heard of him before. Guess I don't listen to a lot of Christian radio much. The only person I listen too regularly on the radio (and only recently) is R.C. Sproul. Also the Apologetics.com podcast is very good.
I have been unable to locate an email address for the Doctor. Does anybody know it? Halitose? Coletti?
Originally posted by lucifershammerIf it were in a society in which prisoners generally were allowed or forced to continue to work within their own profession and for the same employer (maybe without being paid), I guess it would be acceptable and wouldn't mean that the government condones his crimes. But I don't know of any society which does that.
And if he were to work from prison?

Have fun with the abortion. I'm saving up for a serial killing spree, myself.
If I get really lucky and come into some big money, I'm going to become an astronomer.

Originally posted by CoconutI thought about saying "if you become a Christian fundamentalist", but not all Christian fundamentalists believe that it doesn't matter how you act, so this would have been unfair. The reason why I picked RBHILL is that he has been most outspoken about this belief.
he's not the only one. and he isn't our leader.
