Isn't it true that god wants his people to lie, but only if the lie advances religious causes?

Yea, but "find" is a valid word. jacon? Well, the suggested spelling would probably be bacon. So it would have been of limited value in this particular thread.

I just find it humorous that people without a valid counter point will take the cheap shot and attack a misspelling or typo.

Guess when ya got nutin, that's what you go with

There is God's will according to the law of Moses that Israelites not bear false witness one with the other. But what happened between Isaac and Jacob was done prior to the law being given, just as Cain murdering Abel was done prior to the law of "Thou shalt not murder." Rather than God having Cain stoned (which would be the case under the law) or killed by the kinsmen redeemer, God sent Cain away from the family.

Righto...See here's the deal. The OP bills herself as a college student in her profile. Her OP went well beyond a mere typo or misspelling.
I have a 100 valid counter points, but in the world of the internet (and in real life) you get nowhere with that sort of opening point.
I am very certain that this college student is a fine person, but she needs to understand that if she wants to succeed in life she needs to work on her written skills. A hard, but worthwhile lesson. A lesson better learned here than in real life.

I guess you can't get past your hatred of theists.

So why don't you comment on the OP's point.

Naw, no hate, it is such a self-depreciating pastime, nor do I have a reference manual of whom to hate, but I don't have any tolerance for willful ignorance. The choice is your
