Re: Old Testament
But I think it's clear what is going on. You guys hate Christianity so much you won't admit unequivocally that what occurs in iran is wrong, but have to try to falsely smear Christianity, suggesting wrongly that Christianity and Christians support stoning 16 year old girls.
Sort of sucks when someone refuses to talk about the topic you brought up and instead tries to distract by bringing up irrelevant counterexamples doesn't it?

Of course, biblical creationists are committed to belief in God's written Word, the Bible, which forbids bearing false witness; --AIG (lest they forget)

Re: Old Testament
I have said as much in the past in these Islam topics which is that it is a pure distraction from the real issues. The hypocricy is important but it is seperate from the issue of Islam. You don't need to attack Christianity to point out the flaws in these demonizations of Islam. They are not internally consistent and I feel that by bringing the argument to Christianty you are merely leaving an important issue on the table; namely that their criticism of Islam as a whole is bogus on the face of it.
All you are doing is putting them on the defensive over something that does not remove the original issue. "So what, Christianity does it too" does not address the fact that their original assumptions are in fact wrong.

Of course, biblical creationists are committed to belief in God's written Word, the Bible, which forbids bearing false witness; --AIG (lest they forget)
