First of all, everyone should be executed for war crimes, religious, non-religious, what they believe should have no impact on judgement of their crimes. Secondly I believe what they did was wrong and they should have been punished regardless of beliefs.
The Huns were a savage and brutal people who slaughtered innocents and raided towns. There is no evidence they believed in a god or deity. Theists and Atheists are bound to the same morals as Theists and Theists are bound to the same morals as Atheists. They both do wrong things, and right things. No differences except in world views and beliefs.
You're right on most things, but remember that if a belief leads to war crimes then that belief should be abolished :P
You can always PM me if you want to debate on anything :3
It would help if you would tell where in the Bible, other than just saying it. I'm pretty sure Jesus never said to kill an entire city. HE was killed by an entire city! He died willing to SAVE the entire world!
First of all, that's not true. It's a book, it's not real. Secondly, have you even read the bible, or do you just cherry pick the parts you like and ignore the evil passages?
Acts 14 v8-20, Paul and Barnabas healed a lame man and a crowd saw what they had done and began to worship Paul and Barnabas. When Paul and Barnabas heard of this they shouted to the crowd that they were only humans and they told the crowd the Gospel.
Soon the Jews won the crowd over and began to stone Paul and they dragged him outside the city thinking he was dead. After the disciple gathered around him he got up and went back into the city.
1: Just because its a book doesn't mean that its contents are not true. 2: Yes I read the Bible, but you have still not given me proof in the Bible that it specificly orders Christians to kill a whole city that refuses to believe. I'm not ignoring the "evil passages", you just haven't given them to me.
I'm not going to waste my time looking for a passage in a book that has over hundreds of pages. You give it to me if you know Christianity so well to judge us and what we do.
