apart from the alleged great flood, through which he spared only 2 creatures per species!!! (did all humans deserve this fate?, and what did the animals do?...bit shady this God fellow if you ask me)

Genesis 9:6 Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
Originally posted by AgergWhat is [/b]? To answer your question, as the story goes, genesis 6:5 says," And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually." Look at verses 6 and 7 for more detail if you want to.

Originally posted by snowinscotlandWhat do you mean " no matter what the circumstances?" ?
Hold on chaps. This question is a simple one, and as far as I can see there are no positive answers.
Is there anyone out there who thinks it is unacceptable to kill another human being; no matter what the circumstances?
Originally posted by snowinscotlandIdeally I would say I would never do anything intentionally to harm another human being . . . This is the only moral I have.

However if someone gave me the option: You kill that person or I will kill you, I cannot say what would happen.
In certain imposed circumstances the question of acceptability becomes unknown and unanswerable.
Even in this simplisticly posed scenario. . . .
