You’re being overly defensive. He stated that verses in the bible can be used to justify treating non-believers badly. He’s not saying it’s the correct way to interpret the verses, but that some can (and have) used verses in the bible to justify such actions. Otherwise, events like the Spanish Inquisition would never have occurred…

You’re simply dead wrong.
And you’re especially wrong about those verses being used by the Spanish Inquisition. You don’t know your history if you think the Spanish clergy cited those verses and other similar ones to justify their tortures. They needed no scriptural basis because, especially back then, the Catholic Church gets to make it up as they go along. Their authority doesn’t come from the Scripture, it comes from the Church.
It has nothing to do with my alleged defensiveness. Your historical perspective is something you just made up in your head - silly, ignorant revisionism. You’re winging it and hoping you won’t get called on it. You may get away with that with other folks but you can’t with me.

lol, says the devout christian who happens to be a swinger…It has everything to do with your obvious defensiveness.
I never said certain verses were used in the Spanish Inquisition, so it’s you who’s simply dead wrong.
Essentially, you swinging, Baptist version of a Benedictine Monk of Santiago, you’re trying to claim that the Catholic Church does not use scripture at all, but just make things up as they go along. Interesting claim there.
So are you the christian version of muslims who go on about how certain people aren’t “real muslims”? Are Catholics not “real christians”?
I find this all to be a bit of an amusing novelty, btw…A dirty, married swinger who fornicates with as many nasty looking females as possible, and he’s generalizing all Catholics as people who don’t read Scripture but just make things up as they go along.
Next thing you know we’re going to have a Jewish pimp, cane & feathered hat and all, venture onto this forum and proceed to criticize & dismiss certain sects of Judaism.

Alot of hate in that post. It’s a shame none of it is true huh? Well, don’t feel bad lying on the Internet (especially around here lately) is pretty much SOP.
