How is anybody going to get to Heaven without the rampaging Atheists who kill people in the name of Science?

Well JC, does that mean Satan is the one sending the floods, hurricanes and earthquakes?

Who would he blame more the guy that sends people to war or the one killing the people in war? who is more guilty? who is responsible?
If this is true then wouldn't every soldier who killed a man be looking at going to hell and every politician that passed a vote electing war? I mean hell is really going to have an overcrowding problem.....
and what rampaging Atheists who kill people in the name of Science.. Statistics prove most serial killers are Christian, in fact most serial killers are white Christian males... Maybe you should be keeping an eye on the white 20-30 year old Christian males out there instead of the Atheists... their the real problem...

Uh...it is the fantatically religious who kill in God's name, whether that God be the Christian God or the Muslim Allah. Killing is antithetical to the survival of a species. It is the reason we will ultimately end up extinct. Though other species kill others of their own kind (like in mating contests), I doubt any other species takes as much delight in the wholesale slaughter of others of its own kind. We have the ability to NOT kill each other, but we choose to do it anyway. So much for the Commandment.

First off, you are the victom of bad translation and misguided, empty-headed Christians. The commandment should be translated, "Thou shall not murder", and traditionally a child is not considered truly alive until it breaths. Now who are these Atheists killing people in the name of science, and when will their count equal that of all the relligious zealots who have killed in the name of religion?

James 1:17 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down form the Father of lights..." God is the creator, to kill one of His creations is like hurting Him. It is Satan who brought evil into this world, and it is he that is the destroyer.

"You shall not KILL," or "You shall not MURDER"?
[Indeed, "kill" in English is an all-encompassing verb that covers the taking of life in all forms and for all classes of victims. That kind of generalization is expressed in Hebrew through the verb "harag." However, the verb that appears in the (sixth commandment) prohibition is a completely different one,
"ratsah" which, it would seem, should be rendered "murder." This root refers only to criminal acts of killing.] - (courtesy of Eliezer Segal)
There is a difference between "kill" and "murder." Technically then, killing in wartime would not be legally considered "murder." Nor would be killing in self-defense. Or killing an animal in order to eat it. Et cetera...

A better understanding of this commandment is Thou shalt not murder. You cannot maliciously take life. However, if you are defending yourself or others and you have no other alternative, then you must do what you must.

people are made in the image of God and so murder is a wy of disrespecting God
Jesus also generalized this to include character asacination as murder and said you are in danger of hell if you call your brother a fool

Because we are His creation...it's like you make something really precious to you and someone comes and destroys it, would you like that?
