Thread Name: BS: UK Boy Tortured/Murdered
Subject: RE: BS: UK Boy Tortured/Murdered
Christians murdered a boy they believed to be a witch. Their belief system, based on the absolute authority of the Bible, is unchallengeable. Even many Weatern Christians sympathise with it, for after all the Bible condemns witchcraft as a capital offence.
They are wrong on three counts at least:
Witches are superstition.
The Bible (used that way) is superstition.
Their own religion condems killing, unless you weasel the Ten Commandments. Sadly, many Christians (of our time and previous times) are happy to do that.
