rogue1896 Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 c'mon emp, what isn't relevant about the freshwater crocodile? it's almost like a saltwater crocodile, but not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emprworm Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 i dont see how a crocodile is related to "And God commandeth, "Kill your mother.""sounds like a different topic to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjCiD Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Maybe its because crocodiles eat their young? I dont know :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edric O Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Acriku, if God suddenly made Himself known to you beyond a shadow of a doubt and ordered you to kill your mother, would you do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 I for sure wouldn't, I couldn't care less if he was god,but if he commanded that I killed my mother I could only see him as the beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edric O Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 As for myself, the answer is irrelevant - I'd never be able to actually do it, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sneezer3 Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Acriku, if God suddenly made Himself known to you beyond a shadow of a doubt and ordered you to kill your mother, would you do it?Thats why God don't make himself known. he wants faith. just what man don't want to give.and he don't want that. he even tells us not to kill.But if he did and i knew for sure it was truely from him, then yes.

Edric O Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 why? are you handicapped?Are you abysmally stupid or just pretending?I'd never be able to do it because my feelings wouldn't let me, no matter what I decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahdi Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Sure, God pulls this kinda crap all the time, doesn't he? Telling people to kill others close to them, and then stopping them right when they are about to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dude_Doc Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 And even if God asked me of this, it wouldn't fit in our time. You see, mankind has done so much evil, killing one another etc, so killing my mother would only be explained as an "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth", so to say, that someone has lived horribly, or someone died painfully, and that it will be justified by killing another person, in this case, my mother. On the other hand, if everything were equal, if we never killed anyone, or done any sin, then it would be strange, yes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 I see it now. These new "super crocodiles" are working in secret connection with the "reverse vampires" (who can hunt during the day mind you.) to destroy human kind. But their only weakness God. So God is telling us to kill our mothers in order for him to create new super women to defeat these beasts.We're through the looking glass here people...hehe ahh anyways what the heck is this thread about? it is creepy reepy. oh well lets see what joey joe has to say. I said yes.probably there will be something that makes christians look like assholes.lol only time can tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VigilVirus Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 This is not about christianity. This is about morality, which in my opinion is personal and goes above religion.There are some things that are of higher importance than religion.

nemafakei Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 I would not kill without a damned good reason. And even then, the attempt may well drive me (more) insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emprworm Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 many of us, if faced with extreme circumstances might kill, but I agree, the result will be physchologically damaging once the dust settles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Many? I'd say everyone. Some have a higher breaking point then others, but rage or desperation can overcome anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emprworm Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 yea, i think you are right, Earthnuker.WWII Germany was a prime example of how people...even women....could be eventually reduced into killing machines.at the very least, I think that even those people who would have resisted Hitlers brainwashing would still kill under the case of self-defense or defense of loved ones, if the conditions were extreme enoughi'll agree with Earthnuker here (someone mark that down :) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 true. The allies didn't know who was an evil german and who was not. And since the most germans they met were quite evil i can imagine that people get paranoid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 I read this story (real story, that is) in a history book...rather touching.It takes place in the Soviet union. A farmer, and a father of a boy, withhelds grain to feed his family. The boy (called Mozorov, btw), filled with Soviet propaganda sees this and reports him, full knowing his father would probably be send to a labour camp and would never return alive. Not murder in the literal sense, but still... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caid Ivik Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Palko, kosic kulakov? Very known story. Sadly, it's real, many times used as show "how could good pioneer behave to improve his socialistic homeland". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 yes, in the DDR (eastern germany) they had about the same way of dealing with this problem. People, even in your own family may report you for doing something wrong according to the laws there and he/she will get praised for that. While the one who is being betrayed goes to jail, or worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anathema Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 No, Pavlik Morozov (sorry, misspelled the name in last post). A few months later he was murdered by his grandfather. The state then told everyone he gave his life for the state, and that he was an example for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
