    I didn't know it was about winning and losing. What exactly is it that you think you've 'won' here?

    So why are you engaging with this? I thought I was on your Ignore list already.

    Oh I trust God's Word...which is why I don't believe it says what you think it says; to believe as you do would involve an unsupportable contradiction.

    How can you love still less worship a being who commits genocide? Why is this even a matter for discussion?! SMH

    My argument is that God is not evil and does not commit evil acts. Killing someone is an inherently evil act, therefore God cannot (not just 'does not' but cannot) do it. Likewise there is no logic in your statement

    Yes I have. You merely don't like my answer, which bothers me not one bit. Yes I am saying that: God is not evil. Not a lie, just not meant to be taken literally. I say again: you can take all of the OT seriously or you can take it all literally, but not both. Yes. I don't believe He murdered...

    Keep saying that if you want to. I go with the facts.

    Those two statements are contradictory. To believe the second you would have to believe that God is no better than Hitler, Stalin or Milosevic

    I'm a solicitor. I spent my first year at University studying Constitutional Law.

    So are you saying that God is evil and orders genocide?

    Constitutionally and legally it isn't. I'm a lawyer; I say what the law is. And you're not, right?

    It's very simple: I don't believe that God ordered genocide. Good individuals do not commit or order genocide or mass murder. If one believes that God did order that then by definition one does not believe in an individual who can in any sense be called 'good' but, rather, evil like Hitler or...

    Ah, in that case we are talking past each other. Thank you for clarifying. Here, 'the Government' refers to Theresa May, her Cabinet, junior ministers and the civil servants who work for them, based in Whitehall. Parliament sits in Westminster which is down the road from Whitehall, although...

    None of them are part of the Government, no. You seem ignorant of our constitution; it is more tricky to understand since it isn't neatly written down in one place like yours but I can assure you we do have one and it was one of the modules I had to study at University as part of my Law degree...

    #72. I gave my opinion very plainly there. I also asked you a question there which you have thus far failed to answer. Please now answer it.

    The taxpayer Parliament and the Common Law, not the Government. Our Government doesn't make laws; it may introduce a Bill into Parliament but it's Parliament that decides, not the Government. Only last night the Government's Bill to leave the EU was voted down by Parliament. Er...court...

    I have read it and I addressed it: what part of that don't you understand?

    You claimed that the courts are not independent of the State. In that case, how come judicial review?

    I don't find anything remotely funny about exterminating an entire people group.
