Just to let you know, I did see this some decade or decades ago. It's not new.

Of course. So now that you know laws carry the threat of violence... it's nice to see you are being consistent within this post. The problem is you've said in previous posts: "Violence should not be the first answer to any question." So is the the second answer to any question? And: "Lawfully...

You say you don't promote violence, but you are implying here that you promote violence as the second answer to any question. Could you clarify? "Lawfully"? You mean like make it a law? If so, then "lawfully" and "not with violence" contradict each other. But in God's opinion on Ez 18:1-3...

Oh. So you don't support the state forcing people to pay reparations? You said in response to the state forcing people to pay to former slave owners: "The slaves should have been paid the reparation money, NOT the slave owners." ...and later you said: "I would have been far happier had my tax...

Of course not. Children should not be punished for the sins of their fathers. As God says Ez 18:1-3: 1 The word of the Lord came to me again, saying, 2 “What do you mean when you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying: ‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, And the children’s...

I was not hoping for you to have peace until you deal with your wrongful hatred. Your unjustified hatred leads to unjustified violence. I don't like violence. But unlike you, I don't support the violent taking of people's possessions unjustly by the government. If I did, I'd be hateful and wrong...

These slaves are alive today?

My statement "Yes, I can see you are hateful while you don't realize you are hateful. Therefore, I am demonstrating I know more about hate than you, however while I know more about hate you are more hateful than I am." is understood to mean I have looked into the mirror and I understand myself...

Only because you imply being hateful toward others. Accusing and punishing people of wrongs they did not commit is hateful. Yes, I can see you are hateful while you don't realize you are hateful. Therefore, I am demonstrating I know more about hate they you, however while I know more about hate...

No. You've been paying off a loan your ancestors took out in your name. They paid the former slave owners up-front compensation and there was no paying them after they died - those former slave owners already spent that money! You cannot retroactively either stop that loan from being taken out...

Then you are unreasonable. First, there is nothing you can do about the past except to learn from it. The only lesson you can learn from it is to hate chattel slavery and don't support it, which is what we do. Secondly, payments are better than violence. Christ paid for our sins instead of...

The dead people who you want to compensate are dead. You can't do it. It's physically impossible. Yes, it's very sad. But just because we can't compensate the victims doesn't mean we wanted them to be victims. You are implying that we are for chattel slavery. Are you saying people that have a...

Dude, even if former slave owners immorally got tax money for losing their slaves, they're all dead. If you can't let it go, all you are doing is perpetuating hate.

Is that a yes or a no?

So you are saying the universe is old and at least the solar system is young. Do I have that right? If so, the bible in context has God creating light in the first 24-hour day, which does not fit that conclusion. And beyond that, to say it is rather conclusive ignores all the anomalies that...
