Actually, Scripture says 'thou shall not murder'. Killing in self-defense is an entirely different matter.

Actually it is a matter of considerable debate as to whether the word ratsach (kill, mureder, slay etc) had a specific or general meaning.

The ten commandments are LAWS ... they are societally bound.The question is whether or not someone breaking one of the
ten commandments in a culture where the bahaviour
they exhibit is acceptable is acting immorally.That is::Suppose there is a culture where marriage exists, but having
extra-marital sex is acceptable. The adultery commandment
is being broken, but is NOT a recognised law within that society.Are people who act in this way immoral ?Example:: In old England, it was the RIGHT of the Lord of
the Manor to sleep with a bride before her husband ... was this
immoral even though it was law ?If laws are NOT related to morality ... what is ?

Is cornell then not scientific enough? for the creation. Can we carry out this converastion with direct reference to AD WHITE then??

Evolutionary science is simply OBSERVATION of change. True evolutionists DONT PARTICIPATE in the process...they merely record it. As soon as you start to participate,thats no longuer evolutionary science...it becomes EUGENICS,which is what Hitler tried to do...the creation of a perfect race.

So, you as an evolutionist don't participate in evolution? Who does? Only people who believe in a Creator? I know, this is just a semantics argument but you have to admit that is a rather funny comment.
