Universal Translator...
Annatar

Farlas, the Bible doesnt need to be translated for with an eye to giving anyone or any arguement an advantage for "errors" to occur. People do the translating, the work people do will ALWAYS be flawed (because we are always imperfect) no matter how hard we try.
Best intentions etc
Still going by what we have simple stuff... "Thou Shalt Not Kill."
No leeway for argument, yet "christian" countries still march to war, still sell weapons of war, still execute criminals (and one or three innocent).
Its one thing to point and say well its the Government that does this not me, not the people. IF we support our government in these areas, we are culpable in other peoples deaths.
CRACK... theres another commandment broken.
The commandment has no amendments tacked on "Thou Shalt Not Kill. Cept when and only if..."
Alot of crimes deserve Death, but we cannot execute it. Thats God's territory.
Metaphor Versus Literal. Indeed the Bible is a mix of both. The fun is trying to say which is which.

Faith, Hope and Love: the greatest of these is Love...

I think we are getting as far as we can with this. Hopefully we all have more to think about.

Anyways how are we going to make me Ruler of The World!?
Thats what I want to know.

HEHEHE See you later :) Ash Nazg...
