Guy, you skipped over my point.
The problem was that you all claim that Jesus came down to redeem orignial sin. Okay. But original sin was at best a metaphor and at worst a non-event. There was no Adam and Eve.
I also find the whole notion of "dying for my sins" to be rather offensive. I never agreed to tht and frankly would reject it to start with.
If Jesus was here to tell us right from wrong and purposely ignored the biggest wrong going on all around him, then shame on him, really.
Or he was just a first century crazy person who didn't speak out against slavery because, heck, Slavery has always been here and if you aren't a slave, it's not a problem.
Original sin has nothing to do with you and me. Because we're human we all have sinned. Babies, especially the unborn, cannot sin. According to Jesus they are blameless. That is why killing them in the womb is such a terrible sin.
Look, I'm no expert on the scriptures. I'm just relating this as I understand it.
If Abortion was such a terrible sin, why was it not ONCE condemned anywhere in the Bible?
Original sin is one of those sticking points... because of mysticism they tried to stick on old myths.
I'm not a big Bible guy but though shall not kill isn't in the Bible?
