What are you saying? That we shouldn't read the Bible because we don't speak Hebrew?\nThere are basically two different kind of translations. There are the literal translations which aim to translate the original text word for word and then there are paraphrases or so called "dynamically equivalent translations", which aim at reproducing the meanings, the original readers would have understood.\nSo not all English translations are inaccurate. In the King James Version, although a literal translation, there were some mistakes, such as the one you mention. These have been corrected in the New King James version. \nIn the NKJ it reads "murder", not "kill".

The question that you asked is actually the true definition of hypocrisy. The "second" definition implies the first one, it is only expressed in more plain English.

In simple words: manslaughter is without malice. Murder is intenionally.

Abortion is not murder. Murder is the willful taking of one human's life by another human. Physiologically, a fetus is more like a salamander than a human, and I'm not big into the salamander rights campaign. Neurologically, the child isn't complete until it's a year old, so while it's still in the womb, it's certainly not a developed human. Christians claim to take truth from the bible, and the bible makes no reference to abortion or infanticide. In fact the closest thing to a reference is in Exodus 21:22 to the punishment if a man does violence to a pregnant woman causing her to lose the child, which is different from the punishment for murder as described in Exodus 21:12, which clearly indicates that the basis for popular religious thought for the Judeo-Christian-Muslim traditions did not intend for the killing of a fetus to be regarded as murder

yes i think this is the real path towards evil, whatever happened to forgiveness? justice belongs in a court of law not in the hands of the revengefully !

Good point, but there are more things these slimy fools are doing in Africa.  Raping women, killing Christian women and children, burning churches, torturing kids that refuse to memorize their unholy book and more.  Want proof?  Seek it on this link then!

What a sorry way to live life.  If god is so forgiving, he would applaud my free thinking attitude.  My actions in life define myself more than believing is something as ridiculous as a god that kills his own people and then says "thou shall not kill".  There's no reason not to have good morals, regardless of religious faith.  In fact, it seems that religion is inspiring more and more hatred and greed every day!  Those aren't Atheists strapping bombs around their waists and running into a crowd of people.

Yes, it's still murder. Everyone thinks God is on their side. Strangely, Muslims, Christians, and Jews believe in the SAME GOD and it's Muslims, Christians, and Jews who are going to blow everyone off the face of the Earth-WITH THE SAME GOD! I'm so confused!!!

No the bible says thou shalt not kill..who cares about the verse that says to stone them to death. Seams to me even God dosnet know what he wants\n\nLeviticus\n20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.\n\nlike i said even he can't make up his mind on what he wants us to do.

One thing is for sure, George Bush thinks that god loves George Bush.  He's been using it as an excuse his entire presidency and it pisses me off.  You want proof lets go with this.  "God wanted me to be president" that's a quote by Bush himself. Hmmmm I really dint think that god would want a person that murders the innocent and tortures people to be president.  How does that commandment go again? Thou Shalt Not Kill.  sounds pretty clear that god doesn't like war to me.

I believe the 2nd story is correct. Not sure about the follower part, but yes, another man was subsituted. See, Jesus was pulled into the heavens and will return before the Day of Judgement, symbolizing that the Day of Judgement is near. So, yes, God did not kill Jesus.

If anybody ordered mass murder, then he is a murderer. doesnt matter how you want to call him - mass murderer. murderer is a murderer. thats all. doesnt matter if he claims it was the will of god. he remains a murderer.\ncommandments are not for human welfare. but a tool to manipulate man into submission. if someone refuses, kill him. this is the history of prophetic religions from jerusalem.\nthese commandments are the cause of unrest in the whole area. in one form or the other, all the three religions have the same kind of commandments. moses gave 10, christianity & islam  might have added or subrtacted a few here and there. but in essence they are still using this to make life a suffering rather than joy.\npity those believers and followers.
