Dumbest post in this thread easily. Just link one story about Christians throwing a gay off a roof and I’ll retract this.

Was Christianity a Jewish-based religious offshoot. Was “Jesus” Jewish?

Ever heard of “sakil” or “saqal”?

Ask the Rabbi

Death penalty in the Bible - “sekila”

Let’s see where it is used.

Biblehub concordance - “saqal”

Will you retract your statement, seeing as how many cases of the death penalty in the Bible, which Christians claim to follow and believe to be the word of “God”, required the death penalty recipient to be thrown from a height and then, if not dead yet, smashed with a giant stone?

Still not convinced? Maybe I could show you that it was common practice in Jewish culture at the time of Jesus? Maybe.

Luke Chapter 4:

quote:
28When they heard these things, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath. 29And they rose up and drove him out of the town and brought him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built, so that they could throw him down the cliff.

Now do a little research for yourself. Figure out how James the Just was killed. What did the church fathers say about his death? I’ll hang up and listen.

ETA: Muslims are simply an offshoot of a Torah-observant sect of Christians in Arabia that were not under the influence of Rome or Byzantium. The Torah-observant Christians were themselves an offshoot sect of Jews. Check the Quran for yourself…

Surah 3:3

quote:
He has revealed to you ?O Prophet? (Muhammad) the Book in truth, confirming what came before it, as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel

Surah 5:46

quote:
Then in the footsteps of the prophets, We sent Jesus, son of Mary, confirming the Torah revealed before him. And We gave him the Gospel containing guidance and light and confirming what was revealed in the Torah—a guide and a lesson to the God-fearing.

Just about every barbaric practice the Muslims do today can be traced back through the Gospels and through the Torah. Christians today happen to reject the Bible in favor of moral relativism and Greek philosophy, while simultaneously claiming they follow the “objective moral standard” of the Bible that isn’t even remotely objective even if it was authoritative (but it isn’t).

No way you actually doubled down

I noticed you didn’t link a single news story about Christians throwing gays off of roofs.

If Christianity is as violent and as awful as you interpret it to be, surely you can find one?? Surely there’s just one mean awful group of Christians out there killing LGBTQ people like the dozens of Muslim examples you can easily find in 1 google search. Surely you aren’t the only one interpreting it like that and the millions and millions of Christians worldwide are also violent killers??

Youre a babbling idiot. When Christ was confronted with the adulteress, how did he say to handle her? Stone her? Cast the first stone?

Our religion is based on his teachings, not the Torah. Thats why we are called "Christians". And more specifically as Paul (who authored more of the new testament than any other) said;

quote:
Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

Ye must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:

And because Paul taught a non-Jewish belief system, this happened

quote:
This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.

And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut. And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

You dont know enough about the Bible and religious history to be commenting intelligently in these threads
