So do i really deserve to die just because i hit my dad. What if he was drunk one day and said some really hurtful things to me and i slapped him for it. Is it fair to be executed for something like that?Whoever strikes his father or mother shall be put to death. (Exodus 21:15 NAB)
Not to pick on you and your beliefs but this part of your thread illustrates some typical religious thinking. On the one hand it says that a perfect god just appeared out of nowhere but it's obvious that something really smart must have created us. If a perfect god could appear out of nowhere, why isn't it conceivable that human beings (and life in general) could have evolved from the primordial ooze over million of years?... As for my own belief in God I just believe he suddenly came into being because he is God and then he created us. If you just look at you hands and feet and then think of how smart you are you realize something much smarter than any of us must have created us or we wouldn't be here.

I respect your views randy. But to me it just seems like the religious are twisting all the negativity in the bible in a way so they can accept it. I mean, how would you twist this quote to your liking?

and btw, what happened to "thou shalt not kill"
It's threads like this that detract from the bases of computer help forums. I'm not saying a healthy debate is wrong but every time a religious thread is started it just goes on and on and on. Feelings get hurt and people get pissed off.
If product reviews, help threads, and even bragging threads, got as much attention as these threads do, this place would be jumping out of the frame.
