    Do beloved pets go to heaven?

    The Bible doesn't address the matter of pets being in Heaven. But Scripture does tell us that in Heaven "the wolf and the lamb shall feed together." Isaiah 65:25. So we know that animals will be there. Why not our furbabies? BTW, Martin Luther said "If, when you get to Heaven, you want your...

    Cannibalism is referenced very negatively in Scripture. Exekiel 5:10 comes to mind. But Scripture gives no explicit command against cannibalism. I'm seeing nothing that would place it next to blasphemy of the Holy Ghost.

    Roe v wade about to be overturned.

    Definitions come from places other than dictionaries. The words you said were in the Old Testament are not there. No matter what they are based on they are your words.

    Actually BobRyan already provided this proof in post 248.

    Roe v wade about to be overturned.

    Which is what I’ve been saying—intellectual property existed in Biblical times; Intellectual property rights did not.

    No, governed by state statute. If the police prosecute you for car theft, it will be because you broke state law. But the Bible doesn’t condemn the theft of intellectual property, even though written works existed in Biblical times.

    Because it is a violation of the law.

    But your supposed definition can’t be found in your source. You made it up. Why can’t you admit that?

    "It is time to heed the constitution" when it comes to setting Roe aside

    Post birth abortion? 14th Amendment. Citizenship begins at birth.

    Not today, but cars didn’t exist in Biblical times. The written word did, and it was perfectly acceptable to steal it.

    Roe v wade about to be overturned.

    In your post 49 you said that murder was “The unjust taking of a human life.” Show me those words in Scripture. You can’t because they are there. You made the definition up.

    Potential human. But where is the malice aforethought?

    Roe v wade about to be overturned.

    But the action of taking intellectual property in Biblical times was not illegal. It was not protected.
