I do not recall that scene where Charlton Heston asks "but can we still eat animals" and God replying with a booming voice, "sure thing pal".
Nor is it written in the Old Testament that Cows and Chickens are excluded..
Also keep in mind that it is Old Testament, eg, Jewish and let's face it.. Jews weren't opposed to Stoning, so that's another exception right there.
Frankly, it's a bit rich how people twist and bend the commandments how they see fit.
So easy to point to the bible, but who here hasn't married and then divorced.? Wasn't it untill death do us part, and what was joined before God cannot be broken? So whoever is free of sin, do step forward, heck, i don't know about your marriage Sammy, so i'm not casting any stones, but me, i never married.. So that's one thing i couldn't have pissed off God with  |
The OP asked a question. It was, why is it illegal to commit suicide?
I replied with the correct answer, which is: the 10 commandments say we should not commit murder. Our society considers murder to be a sin, and suicide is murder, so it is illegal.
Duh.
I didn't spell it out, figured this crowd had enough common sense to extrapolate that which is obvious.
Then you get your panities all bunched because evidently you don't like the truth.
I just answered the question.
As far as the ridiculous points you made in a weak attempt at distraction, I repeat: really dude?
Take the emotion down a notch and read what you wrote again.
