Does Belief REALLY Mater?

Not really.  Let me explain something about beliefs of ALL kinds without trying to be authoritarian about it.  I would suggest that most people would never intentionally take a Human Life regardless of beliefs. 

But since Jesus is the Prince of ALL Peace, those who worship Him are probably the least likely to take a Human Life.  But at the same time, most beliefs will excuse a person of intentionally taking a Human Life if the guilty of having done so meets certain conditions. 

War heroes are celebrated by believers of all kinds.  And most believers believe in law and order and believe that peace officers have a right to take Human Life. 

There are certain conditions that MUST be met by most communities of believers.  I don’t make such exceptions. 

This is why I can be perceived as being authoritarian about how I define murder.  I won’t allow for such excuses.  And this is where I differ from just about any kind of believer or person of most any faith.  I have said that my Angels told me that Jesus died for EVERY single sin known to humanity EXCEPT for the sins of murder and suicide.  I say that murder is the intentional taking of ANY Human Life for ANY reason and in MY thinking NOTHING can change this.  I can’t even change this if I wanted to. 

So, I am more likely to proclaim the coming of Jesus and say HOW He will judge all nations once He arrives with His Heavenly Hosts.  I don’t make excuses for those who intentionally take Human Life regardless of reason to do so and regardless of how penitent the guilty might be.

I would suggest that while believers will accept the sanctity of the fetus in the womb and believe this is protecting Human Life not all Human Life to all believers is sacred. 

It is, but the protection of ALL Human Life extends beyond this and further, I won’t forgive a woman for having an abortion if I know a woman has had one.  I won’t forgive the executioner for carrying out the wishes of the State for the death of an inmate who has been sentenced by a judge.  I don’t blame judges at all, just as I don’t really blame the doctors who perform abortions. 

But doctors have their own issues.  And I don’t want to get into the morality of tampering with ANY Human Life in ANY form.  I say that Human Life begins with conception and ends when a person willingly takes his or her last breath.  Otherwise, no one is given any right from God to intentionally take a Human Life. 

Now, for me this is more than a belief.  I say this is HOW God will judge all humanity and NOTHING can change this.  I can be as inconsistent as I want to be about what I am saying, but the fact is, I am saying that while humans can be inconsistent, God is NOT.  He won’t allow for ANY excuses whatsoever.  So, I am saying there are Atheists who are innocent of ANY Human blood. 

There are all kinds of beliefs that have adherents that are innocent of ANY Human blood.  Perhaps the ONLY religion of which I am aware that can accept what I am saying is pure Buddhism which teaches that EVERY life is sacred from the very lowest to all humanity.  I might be closer to Buddhism in what I am saying that most of Christianity. 

But I say this is what Jesus teaches us in the Gospels, but the ONLY proof I have of this is HOW I interpret the Bible from cover to cover.  Most Christian beliefs wouldn’t accept my interpretation, but I say this is God’s problem and NOT mine.
