Ethics on killing?
What does the Bible say about killing? I would guess from the start that murder(my definition of murder is killing without good cause) is wrong. But what about killing in war, or killing to protect another? Mercy killing(assisted suicide, etc)? Self defense? What is everybody's opinion?

Re: Christian Views
Hi. Being an Atheist myself, I've always wanted to know Christian viewpoints first hand, as I know very few religious people here, and I've only ever been able to get Christian viewpoints from web sites and general opinion. What is your opinion on homosexual marriage? Abortion? Stem Cell Research? ...

One has to ask himself if the turn the other cheek quote actually represents all kinds of attack. I believe Jesus actually meant not to retaliate to petty attack that do not really cause you any harm. If you are the leader of a nation, and the enemy seeks to destroy those you have sworn to protect, ...

Remember, things make sense to us because these things were made to make sense in this Universe. It is known as Order. Sorry, I glimmed over this part. I tend to believe that order, such as the laws of logic (e.g., the law of non-contradiction), is something that always applies. Such laws were not ...

I'm afraid I have to disagree. Most explanations people bring up is that God cannot do the impossible because of what omnipotency means etc etc. Anyway, here is my answer: If God is Allmighty, then he can make a rock that He can lift and not lift at the same time. Sound impossible? If He truly can d...

The rock question...
I'm just curious, what do you guys usually say to one who asks you this:
"If God is all poweful, can He make a rock so heavy that he cannot lift?"
I have my own special answer, I just want to know what other people have to say.
