Incorrect. I lived in L.A. when the Night Stalker was murdering and raping people in their beds. He thought it was the RIGHT thing to do.

Want to try again?

And YOU have told us many times that all prophecies have come true.

Vizio, ya can't have it both ways.

Please quote such a statement. The text doesn't say that.

How do you know what was in his heart? How do you know he didn't justify it according to his own selfish desires?

Do you claim it was a bad thing that he was doing that? If he decided that it was good to do it....what makes your OPINION of it better than his?

Nice try,

The right thing to do alongside a twisted mind

will be something twisted and demented,

because intentions and needs are associations of what? each other.

And then what? it gets expressed as a need -right thing to do, relative to what? a twisted head out of touch with reality.

Reality, there are others besides the self and the human is a social animal who needs the herd. Thieving from the herd is immoral.

Come on, Vizio . . . stop this silly game. You know they are not questioning God or God's laws! They are questioning YOUR belief that Bronze-age primitives some 2000-4000 years ago knew what God's laws were and wrote them down inerrantly and infallibly. Questioning anything "written in ink" by humans is NOT questioning God.

Why not let people represent themselves.

Sorry. I am unable to interpret your posts.

That's okay, I'm sure everyone else does and if they don't , it can be itemized in order to illustrate where its not understood, ( evidence for I do not understand, )

Sorry, no. I suggest you re-read post #606. Mordant (a highly intelligent poster) is also unable to understand your posts.

Are you using software to translate your posts into English? Is something other than English your first language?

I have to agree. I find your posts extremely difficult if not impossible to understand. I have attempted to do so on the assumption that English is not your native language, but I admit that I have largely failed.
