The VA can’t even handle veteran care properly, this is just kicking veterans while they’re down.

    I never claimed to be a christian. I used to, but am no longer.

    You do realize that Romans is not all encompassing? It is not considered a sin to ignore some laws? Do you think it was a sin when Germans hid jews in their attics instead of reporting them?

      Where in the bible does it command you hide people? It doesn’t. Maybe history isn’t your strong point, but the church did little to protect the jews. People think the Nazis were unique in disliking the jews. They were not. It is really a sad part of history. Today the Democrats are still attacking the jews. Crazy stuff.

        This one isn’t even true.

        Answer my question. Is it a sin, under Romans, to have hid the jews from the nazis, despite Ceasars law requiring citizens to report jews? If it is, then I don’t care for your understanding of sin, and nobody should. If it isn’t, then you have no argument about modern migration problems.

          No you just keep making things up because you don’t understand Christianity.

                I am an atheist too. I don’t believe in sin either. My question is not “does sin exist?”. My question is, within christianity, would it be considered a sin for german citizens to hide jews from the nazis?

                The answer is very obviously no. You can’t just use Romans as a gotcha to defend any and all laws that hit the books.

                  The answer is not obviously no. Not everything is a sin or not a sin. That isn’t how the theology works. SMH.

                    Go ask your priest next time you go to church then. Ask them if it would have been sinful for the german citizens to hide the jews, and failing to uphold Ceasars law.
