:clapping::tiphat::clapping:***FONT=“Impact”]This thread is becoming absoultely ridiculous. The OT is full of examples ( long after Moses received the ten commandments from God, amongst which was the one " thou shalt not kill, which so clearly meant “thou shalt not murder”) where the Children of Israel were ordered by God through his prophets such as Elijah, Samuel etc to kill their enemies, slaughter them, leave none of them alive and these orders were carried out by many Kings of Israel including King Saul and King David (who was called a man after God’s own heart)
Early fathers such as Saints Augustine, Great Saints such as Dominic preached the just war, and that error had no place in the Church.
Jesus made a whip and whipped the money lenders out of the temple, and their beasts, overturning the tables of the money lenders. This righteously angry, completley justified and very violent act is mentioned in all four of the Gospels.
In days where extremist Moslems are brainwashing young people into blowing themselves up and allegedly becoming martyrs by their acts, where on the other hand abortionists, homosexuals etc, demand we change the Chuch to suit their warped views, Christians must stand up and be counted.
Of course killing Hitler, Stalin, or any other murdering dictator is perfectly alright. Get a serious grip***!
