Hegseth announced last week that the US public would be able to see the execution of Nidal Hasan, which is set for 3 December at Fort Hood, Texas. Hasan, a former army major and psychiatrist, killed 13 people and wounded 32 at Fort Hood in 2009. A military court sentenced him to death in August 2013.
āWeāll make sure that people are able to watch it, that itās public,ā Hegseth said. āIt was a radical Islamist attack in uniform inside the ranks, and so heās going to get a firing squad of soldiers ā as it should be.ā
The de facto leader of Hegsethās theocratic Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC), Douglas Wilson, welcomed the announcement.
Is is why they need āthou shalt not killā written on the walls in schools?
Just for the record itās āmurderā, not ākillā.
Murder is the unjustified killing of another, and to be clear, their god justified bashing babies against rocks over an imagined slight that didnāt happen hundreds of years prior,
Also their god thought an appropriate response to children making fun of a bald guy was sending bears to maul them.
Spare the bear, spoil the bairn
Interesting.
Iād always considered that the translation that resulted in the virgin (chaste) Mary rather than virgin (unwed) was dubious; but not extended that to murder/death/kill for that commandment.
Bullshit is as bullshit does as it momma used to say
I mean, I donāt know of any translation that puts it as āyou shall not killāā¦ particularly since the law of Moses also makes it very clear that one should most certainly kill for all sorts of things.
I mean, off the top of my headā¦
And then thereās all the numerous times god commanded genocides.
Look behind you when leaving town? Believe it or not: death.
That was just god being a dick, rather than being an actual legal code.
Which means he was in one of his better moods. I mean, really. Supposedly, he once offed most the planet just because some angels (or possibly his childrenā¦) came down and started boinking some girls.
Part of the argument is that all of Godās words are law, which makes sense. If a perfect omnipotent omniscient being tells you anything: itās law.
If He says not to look back (ignoring the obvious metaphor) then doing so invites Divine retribution.
Urgh, now I feel like Micheal Bay responding to every Goof in his movies on IMBD.
