Numbers 31

12And they brought the captives, and the prey, and the spoil, unto Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and unto the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the camp at the plains of Moab, which are by Jordan near Jericho. 13And Moses, and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation, went forth to meet them without the camp. 14And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle. 15And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? 16Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. 17Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. 18But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

Ahhh…Mr. P…this is the 21st century…Can you identify the Jews (or Christians or Buddhists, Hindus etc etc )who are busy running around the world slaughtering innocents because they want to make the rest of Jews, Christians, Buddhists, Hindus etc etc? I’ve never been to Falwell’s college or for that matter any fundamentalist Christian college in America, or for that matter outside of Georgetown any religiously-based college in the US, but – call me crazy – I’m willing to bet they do not teach “Kill the Infidels 101” or “Beheading for Beginners” (see the news story about the 12-year old in Pakistan doing same.)

Yeah, they commit the crime when they’re 17, get arrested when they are 18, tried and convicted at 19 or 20, and finally get executed when they’re in they’re early to mid 30’s but somehow we’re “executing children”. I love the left’s mischaracterization of facts.

…it’s not the age at which they are executed, it’s the age at which they are sentenced that makes them a child offender.

From Amnesty International two years ago, when we stopped executing people for crimes they committed when they were sixteen:

The international prohibition on executing people for crimes committed when they were children reflects a common understanding that the lives of child offenders, due to a young person’s immaturity, impulsiveness, vulnerability and capacity for rehabilitation, should never be simply written off, no matter how heinous the crime. Today, the US Supreme Court agreed. It found that the inherent differences between children and adults meant that child offenders “cannot with reliability be classified among the worst offenders” for which the USA supposedly reserves the death penalty."

But that’s not what you said. You didn’t say “youthful offender”. You said “child executions”. This is misleading at best and downright dishonest at worst.

I’ll never forget the first time I watched a report on the execution of “youthful offenders”. I felt all bad until they interviewed a guy on death row and he had gray hair! The guy was like in his 40s and had been on Death Row for almost 25 years. Child execution my ass! Hey, are those pimples? No they’re liver spots!

And let me just state that I am AGAINST the Death Penalty no matter what the age of the offender is. But these are not “child executions”. The vast majority of these cases are offenders just a few months shy of 18 and the crimes are brutally heinous.

3798279
mr_phaethon

You have a valid point. “Youthful offender” is a much better term; I confess I was reading the Amnesty International report on the matter and unthinkingly adopted their terminology.

These are people being executed for crimes committed when they were sixteen or seventeen, sometimes even younger (admittedly very rarely). It is a common tenet in our society that children under the age of 18 do not have their full adult faculties, which is why they are restricted in making certain activities which presumably require the full application of those faculties in assessing the risk: drinking, smoking, etc. To then turn around and execute these same children, removing their lives irrevocably in punishment for actions taken before they had those full faculties seems outrageously cruel. These children are not old enough to smoke, so it seems simply vicious to say that they are nonetheless old enough to understand the full ramifications of crime.

That’s the problem I have with the Amnesty stance. They spit out terms like “child executions” when they know that this is NOT true in the case of the USA.

I agree that children should not be tried as adults. It aggravates me especially to see a 15 year old who robbed a grocery store getting tried as an adult. He’s 15!

Now with the case of murder it is especially heinous. But I don’t think the world is gonna end if you don’t lethally inject a 17 1/2 year old who kills someone.

Oh, I forgot my point. I agree that the Death Penalty is not good here, but let’s be honest. We’re not executing children. By the time they get executed they haven’t been children for quite some time. Usually by the time they get sentenced they aren’t children anymore.

So… you admit that you think the execution of youthful offenders is wrong, but as long as the world doesn’t end it’s still not a big deal?

Yes, you are correct, we are not executing children, thank god. A bad choice of words on their part and mine. But we ARE executing people for things they did when they were children. How can we declare that these kids are not mature enough to decide to smoke, but they are mature enough to have full comprehension of the consequences of crime?

Today we are graced with a report from the BBC of the video taped stoning of a 17 year old girl in Iraq. The girl died for having a boyfriend of the wrong sect of Islam. For shame! Where was her honor? Her male relatives were quick to reveal the crime and hurl the first stones.

Mr. Paethon, your original post from the Bible is valid, and God did call for executions of Isreal’s enemies. He even punished those who disobeyed Him with death.

I would like you to find where He commands that of Christians (New-Covenant type) going forward, the same way the qur’an does.

I admit that there was time for killing, but true Christians are not looking to kill anyone currently, nor are we commanded to make slaves, or kill others. We are to spread the Good News of Christ, and invite others to share in that Good News.

I understand that there is a time in history when Christian values will be persecuted,(this may or may not be that time) but it does not mean that we will abandon them; nor does it mean that we hand ourselves over to slaughter.

Stop giving this liberal attention, that’s what he’s here to get, so you’re just giving him reason to come back.

God told Jews to slaughter several religious groups who engaged in child sacrifice. God wanted to have a place where the Jews could live and not be contaminated by false demonic religions (like Islam, who’s founder wrote the words of whatever demon was talking to him in his Koran). The big difference is that Muslims are currently under the command to kill for their false god Allah, while Jews and Christians unanimously agree that the commands to kill in the Torah were only for 4,000 years ago, and not to be followed today.

Can you imagine how powerful Christians/Jews would be if we were killers like Muslims? We would have wiped out the billion or so of them with nukes a long time ago, and the whole world would have converted to Christianity out of fear we would do the same to them. Christians and Jews are peaceniks when compared to what they could be doing.

Mr.P.,
Why do I always find those same sad, irrelevant biblical quotes (your first post) in every thread about islam? Can you not tell the difference between a simple recounting of history, and an ongoing commandment for continuing action? If the Koran simply told stories of its violent founding, then modern day muslims would have no problems dealing with the jihadists. In truth, the Koran is filled with marching orders, not bedtime stories. Todays muslims cannot compartmentalize the calls to violence as a mere relic of a dark past; these verses are active; they live. So please spare me your relativism, it’s not deeeep, man.

The left has to point to misrepresented history in order to “support” their arguments and the right merely has to pick up a daily newspaper in order to support theirs.

The right mentions the Twin Towers and the left mentions the crusades (which were a reaction to what? Say it with me… "Muslim invaders!)

The left is too funny. What would we do without them? I mean, besides win a war or two…

mr. phaethon:
Christians believe that Jesus fulfilled the Mosaic law so that we would no longer have to follow the same laws; those in Deuteronomy and Leviticus, that the Jews of old did. This does not mean that the Ten Commandments are obsolete, for those are tenents to live by. Your argument is used by ignorant atheists or other theists who want to try and confuse the argument.
Also, the Crusades were a direct response to the occupation of the Holy Land in the 11th century by the Seljuk Turks. While I do not believe violence is always justiied, we have to remember not to use our modern sesnibilities to judge their behavior.
In contrast, the behavior of the Islamic regimes in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, etc. are truly sad. The lack of basic human rights for women, minorities and the disabled should not be overlooked or swept away. I am against US involvement in a Civil War, but I do support trying to help those who are unable to defend themselves.

mr_phaethon

In point of fact, idittman, you can’t speak for all Christians. Some believed Jesus when he said that he came “not to overturn the law, but to fulfill it” and that “not one iota of the law will pass from this earth before the end”.

It is absurd to think that the Crusades were in any way justified, by occupation or invasion or the like. If you research the history, you discover that when the leader of the Eastern Orthodox Church appealed to Urban II for aid, he was immediately regretful as the Crusades sacked his cities before marauding the Holy Land. And the Crusades in Moorish Spain perpetrated ever-higher heights of appalling atrocity.

I think we absolutely have to use modern “sensibilities” (or “morals,” as I like to call them) to judge such things. We have no other standard. We might not condemn them for their time, but those actions themselves were atrocious and we should not follow them up.

If you are concerned about human rights, then I have to ask why you don’t support armed invasion and suppression of such states as the Congo or the like, where the violence and human rights violations are widely known and worse than almost anyplace in the Middle East. I know WHY we don’t care about them: they have no oil. But how do you rationalize it?

It is clear that some of those who are defending Islam here do not know much about it. I bet some of them will quote the sura “There is no compulsion in religion” and expect us the eat the drivel.

Islam applies the doctrine of abrogation. The later suras cancel the earlier suras. So to those “Islam is a religion of peace” pundits NOTE: the war verses (the Sword, etc) have CANCELLED those “peaceful” blah-blahs you love to quote.

It’s very easy to find out these things- if you read. 1. the hadiths provide some indication as to the order in which these suras were “revealed”. This will take some reading (Bukhari, Ishaq, Tabari, Muslim, etc). 2. to save the effort, read various works on the Qu’ran.

Also, the fact that the Qu’ran is disordered is due to the fact that in order- it appears jumbled- no structure, etc. But this you can read up on.

What makes the Koran more dangerous than the Bible (which, BTW is modeled upon it’s worst most primitive aspects) is that there is no room for misinterpretation given that it is all the revealed word of Allah through one who claims to be the last prophet to mankind on earth, Mohammed. If one looks upon Islam with the sanctified and Islamically approved methods of interpretation, using abrogation, the directives are very clear and very violent toward those not Muslim. OBL is, in fact, doing just what a good Muslim should be doing.

and, BTW, the average Muslim gets it straight from their Allah to feel the same way about Jews. Mohammed even say’s Allah will animate bushs and trees to rat out Jews… to be more easily killed. Many Muslims think the Trinity of God in Christianity is but polytheism; and the Koran says flatly to kill the polythiests. So, you are either a moron or a liar Futsunushi. Which?

For one thing Islam is a cult of Mohammed.
Islam is more like Mormonism than any of the more mainstream Protestant and Catholic denominations and sects.

Those violent passages in the Bible are usually specific to a time and place; as with the Jews moving into the Promised Land or involve specific individuals.

The Koran in contrast has directives from Allah for all Muslims to carry out. Directives that are set to a procedure of clarification from contridictions; from a Koran itself based method called abrogation.
Abrogation declares that the later, more violent, Median suras take precedence over the earlier more peaceful Meccan suras.
In addition you would apply the fallacy of time to your logic if you argued with examples of Christian institutionalized violence. A pre-industrial age Spanish Inquisition wouldn’t be a fair comparison to a 21 century Muslim Jihad.
Yea, you are wrong.
