Reply #33: It's funny how the most bible-centric Christians never seem to have read the thing. [View All]

Exodus 21:15,17 'Anyone who attacks his father or his mother must be put to death.'
'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.'

Leviticus 20:9 'If anyone curses his father or mother, he must be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother, and his blood will be on his own head.'

And the kicker - Jesus himself:
Matthew 15:3-4 Jesus replied, "And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition? For God said, 'Honor your father and mother' and 'Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.'


So where's the part again about the "progressive" view that Jews were prohibited from killing their children?
