    My goodness, what an annoying kid.

    The whole Jeremiah 48 is an encouragement to the Israelites
    before going to war with the Moabites, the relatives of Israel
    through Terah and, funnily, Baal worshipers. That war was
    over, like, thousands of years ago.

    The law is important from the Old Testament, and the historical
    notes are that, historical, for that particular time. Even the
    half-witted knows that there is a before and after Jesus.

    Oh I see. Quite unlike Muhammad dealing with idolators and the like then.

    Of course Gegrory VII's affection for this quote was long ago - maybe four hundred years after Muhammad - and in connection, strangely, with attacking and forcibly converting the pagans West of the Elbe in Eastern Europe, while occupying those "Slav" lands with German settlers, castles and monastries. That war was over - like - a thousand years ago as was the conquest (from pagan idolators) by the Muslims of Arabia and by the Arabs of the Byzantine and Persian Empires.

    The half witted seem to be very selective about what aspects of Christianity they employ in any argument.

    While the quarter-witted seem content in honing on isolated parts of the picture, claiming contradiction where none exists.

    I was not responding to you here. The witticism is not worth the interruption.

    Oh, let the kid have his fun.

    It must be really, really boring in Ireland. After all, my
    taxes are supporting their leisure time... attacking
    Christianity in a chess website.

    Attacking islam on the other hand is apparently highly entertaining and no doubt stimulating.

    But yes, I have fun thanks and all at your expense.
