You make some excellent points in your replies to my posts. Many of the perspectives you offer make good sense. In reply I must emphasize my veiw that the contradictions that come to light do so when I look for moral guidance from the Bible like so many claim to do.
When one must wonder things like "should I be for or against issues like the death penalty, abortion, gay rights, unprovoked war, womens rights, pacifistsim, ect." and hits a brick wall of messages mixed thats when I think the contradictions are most visible and need the most scrutiny.
Now when many of these "contradictions" are put into a different context, they seem not to be very much contradictory at all. Similar to looking at a multi-faceted gem, when veiwed from different angles different color light is revealed.
