Re: Iano's Rationalization of Murdering His Own Family
Hello Iano,
iano writes:
The are not comparable because in the one case, God is assumed (for the sake of argument) to be talking to the person (me). In the other case, it is not known whether God is talking to the person (Hitler).
Which means the possiblity exists for me killing my family to be Gods request of me and Hitlers killing of many not to be Gods request of him (despite his claims)
Which means you're comparing apples and pears.
I realize that for arguments sake we are assuming God to be true and personally speaking to you, however in reality there is no way to know if the voice you hear in your head is God's, Satan's or your own. The fact that you seem to be able to act on it while showing no hesitation or remorse is a little scary. It not so much apples and pears considering no one has any way to tell if your claims along with Hitler's, were they ever to happen, to be a true request of God or the concoction of a delusional brain.
