To What Extent Do You Support Abortion?

To What Extent Do You Support Abortion?
TreeBeard replied to WestCanMan's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
This is where you’re wrong. If this were the case, we would force people to give blood, and corpses would all arrive at the funeral without any organs. -
We all know the anti-gay passages in the bible used to justify things like opposition to gay marriage. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus 20&version=KJV The most popular being Leviticus 20:13. These passages describe male homosexuality. Where are the passages condemning lesbianism? From a biblical perspective, it seems lesbians are alright, but not gay men. Why do you think that is?

Why was God so crappy at designing humans? Eyes that often don’t see properly…. A breathing tube the same as where you swallow food, where the simple act of eating kills people all the time…. a ticking time bomb called an appendix that just ruptures and, before modern (scientific) medicine, would kill people at an early age. A 10 year old could design a better human body than God (supposedly) did.

No. For some reason, you mistake my quoting the misogynistic nonsense in the bible as support for what is written there. You also mistake my correcting you about what is in the bible for support for what is actually written. Don’t get me wrong…. it’s great that you are anti-bible when it comes to divorce. It would be terrible if a woman was still the property of a man in law, like it is in the bible. There is not a single passage in the bible about a wife divorcing her husband, except in the Old Testament regarding when a man takes another wife, he must still treat his old wife as a wife, and not make her a slave, or else she may divorce him. If you can find another one, put it up. The bible is all about what a man can do to his wife, not the other way around.

It only makes sense if you have a preconceived notion that divorce is ok and will find whatever you can in the bible to support it, even twisting it’s meaning.

You think they hand out cheques to gay people? -
So when the bible refers to a man divorcing a woman, it actually means a woman divorcing a man as well? That makes no sense.

BC Liberal MLA fired after retweeting misinformation
TreeBeard replied to herbie's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
So your solution to the Liberals inaction on climate issues is to vote for the party that denies it’s even a problem? Do you see anything wrong with that? -

Why would I believe Prince Charles, or care what he has to say? What do scientists say about climate change? -
But there are plenty about when a man can divorce a woman. Do you think this was an oversight by God?

What passage says an abused woman can divorce a man?
-
Yours is not a typical translation. But, ok. Let’s say I interpreted Matthew 19:9 incorrectly. Now tell me what the bible says regarding when a woman can divorce a man? And you keep avoiding the question about why the state should regulate marriage to align with the bible, but not divorce.
-
That post had nothing to do with Matthew. I asked a very specific question, which you again ignored. But, Matthew 19:9 is clear that sexual immorality is the only grounds for divorce. Also, you never answered the question I asked about when a woman can divorce her husband, according to scripture. The biblical norm was a man married to more than one woman….
-
God also said not to divorce except for very specific reasons. But, you ignore those. Do you think a man should be able to take multiple wives, like in the bible? Adam & Eve & Genevieve

What are they getting that you don’t? -
Now you’re ignoring my post and making assumptions about what I would do to try and change the subject. I don’t care why anyone else gets a divorce. None of my business. What do you think the bible says about why a woman can divorce her husband? And, why do you want the government to regulate who gets married according to biblical morals, but not regulate divorce in the same way?
-
That is Matthew saying what Jesus said. Matthew 19:9 is explicit. And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery
-
What do you think the bible says about when a woman can divorce her husband? Personally, I think anyone should get divorced for any reason they choose. The odd part to me is that you want the government to regulate who can get married (no gays) according to the bible, but you don’t want the government to regulate divorce based on what the bible says….
