Thats right so the state that does not support the scientific findings is wrong about rape not being harmful and the one that supports the scientific results is right. So regardless of what position they take if they are not agreeing with the findings then they have been proven wrong. Just becuase they disagree does not mean they are right about rape not being harmful.People do get things wrong when it comes to laws.Which makes my point; which is, everything under the category of rape is not harmful. After all, both states can’t be right!
The non biblical writings about Jesus either came from those who were out to get him or were non believers and had no reason to be biased towards trying to make him into something better than be was. Historian Tacitus wrote to Nero who was blaming the Christians for the burning of Rome and therefore if anything would be wanting to make out Jesus and his followers were deluded but he didnt. Pliny the Younger mentions how Christs followers would meet and promise to never commit any fraud, theft or adultery, never to falsify their word which is a testament to their good life and Christs example. He was involved in prosecuting the Christians so he was not going to stick up for Christ who the Christians followed.Most of the non-biblical accounts of Jesus was still written by his fan club; whether it be from the Koran or gnostic gospels; but even if he was sane; there have been plenty of crooked religious leaders who were not seen as delusional. Jim Jones was seen as a good man by many of the political leaders in the USA, David Koresh was not seen as delusional; just because someone believes they are divine doesn’t mean they are going to be acting delusional.
Jim Jones and David Koresh were both seen as delusional in the end and thats all that counts. That is all part of their story of who they are and all the details of their strange and deluded activities was exposed for all to see. Jesus was never found to be like this from the beginning to the end. He did not take out others with some delusional belief. It is ironic that you say Jesus followers were covering up for him and lying to hide his delusion. Yet it was the followers of Koresh and Jones who exposed all the details of how deluded their leader was becuase they were the ones who had the greatest insights.
Yet there are soldiers who have been awarded medals for sacrificing their lives for others in war. How they are trained is irelevant when it comes to sacrificing their lives.There are plenty of examples of soldiers going outside of their training and acting on their own, but as I said before, soldiers are not TRAINED to sacrifice themselves in the line of duty.
So where do you derive your moral standard for judging that this is wrong if you support subjective morality. Are you now claiming that you support objective morality by claiming you know that what God had done was definitely wrong. Or is this just your opinion which says nothing about whether this is truly wrong. You seem to be contradicting your own position for the sake of trying to prove God to be bad which undermines your whole argument anyway.If your God has the ability to do anything, he should have the ability to forgive sin without bloodshed. The fact that he would put a system in place that requires bloodshed in order to forgive sin? Especially when he made them in a way that he knew would lead to sin? That would be like breaking a mans legs then punishing him because he cannot walk! Some things are indefensible; this is one of them.
Christians don,t sacrifice people so there is no comparison. If you say that what Christ did is part of Christianity then why dont Christians practcie sacriificing humans. As I have explained and proven with ample support that Christ was one sacrifice for the good of all people just like a soldier sacrifices himself for the good of others.If the Moonies religious cult were sacrificing adult humans as a part of their religious rituals, would you defend that? Or do you only defend it when your guy does it, but point a finger at everyone else who does it.

You deny a soldiers sacrifice because you do not want to admit that this happens becuase it would show that Jesus's sacrifice was the same and undermine your argument. So it shows you are willing to compromise and deny a great act of a soldier who should be honoured for the sake of winning an argument which once again undermines your argument and moral position.
