Also - many of them - like Longweekend are Inquisition deniers.
The Inquisition went on for 600 years & at it's height they burnt
400 witches in one hour in the town of Toulouse in France.
All these atrocities are documented by the Catholic Church themselves.
Is religion ever used [by men, with political motives] as a reason, or as an excuse, to do wicked things ?
Clearly, yes.
Are those men [who do wicked things]
not responsible for their choices, and actions ?
Q.
While a mugger, or any other criminal, is committing a crime, do they think [do they imagine] that they will be brought to account for their actions [i.e. brought to account for their crime] ?
Q.
If the answer was yes, then why would they 'do their crime' ?
John 16:1
These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
Sometimes
men do wicked things [actions].
Q.
Why ?
A.
Because some >> men <<
want [choose] to do wicked things.
Q.
Why so ?
A.
Because mostly, men who choose to do wicked things,
DON'T IMAGINE THAT THEY WILL BE BROUGHT TO ACCOUNT FOR THE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR CHOICES, AND ACTIONS.
That is a very irrational point of view, imo.And reveals a very
UNSCIENTIFIC mindset.
Because doesn't high school science class teach every student that;
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Newton's Third Law of Motion
???
So, if a common criminal has half a brain cell, shouldn't the criminal mind realize, .....that our actions always have consequences ?
That, is just a 'scientific' law of the universe.
Right ?
Galatians 6:7
Be not deceived;
God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
9
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
