Moral Judgments

In the Surah a few verses clearly advocate killing anyone who does not submit to Allah and Islamists cite Mohammed's example of enforcing this command by killing hundreds of Jews and non-believers during his life.So 9-11 and that soldier who fragged his buddies' tent were apparently acting consistently within their moral system. Are we to conclude that murder, as long as it is committed by a true believer of Allah, is fine?

Who is Aquinas again? Is he in my Bible? Well, talk to Brian, he thinks you should be able to sue me.This message has been edited by Hangdawg13, 01-05-2005 12:56 AM

Presumptions won't get you very far. How can I use his argument word for word if I've never heard of him? (I've explained This to you multiple times before) The Hebrew word, which you translate "kill" means "murder". Perhaps there is no difference between the two in your mind. That was a pathetic attempt on my part at a joke and jab at Brian. HAHA. The only person who has been incited to hatred is YOU. You sound as if you are so wound up that your bitter chatter will at any moment cause you to burst into a puff of rank yellow smoke and be gone forever. Please calm down and take a break before you reach critical mass.

Perhaps I should have said, "never heard of his ideals". His name actually DOES sound familiar, but I've definately never read his materials or heard anyone teach his philosophy. Now I'm curious; I'll have to google him. Sorry for dragging this OT; let's try to stay on topic.
