people think I plan to do it when all I want to do is point out the stupidity of the bible.
My child is disobedient, should I kill him as it states in the bible?

The bible is not the guide to raise a child, please don't do that. Tell you child the truth, religion and gods are imaginary just like the tooth fairy and Santa Claus. Be good be nice

When you call the Bible stupid you call God stupid because the Bible is God's Word. This is blaspheming the Holy Spirit, which is an unpardonable sin unless you repent. The Holy Spirit is God's witness of Jesus Christ to us and it is he that inspired God's prophets to write the books of the Bible. If you do not understand what you read, then respectfully ask for an explanation rather than be sarcastic---God hates a fool and the words of a fool.
In Old Testament times God had to take extreme measures with men and women in order to get their attention because they were deeply steeped in sin and had little or no sense of morality. The Old Testament paved the way for the coming of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. Jesus fulfilled the law and the prophets and presented mankind with a better way to seek God and the kingdom of heaven. Modern law is based upon Mosaic Law---that is taught in all Western law schools. The way of Jesus Christ is the way of love and not violence---this is the better way. If you have an unruly child the best way to correct him/her is with the love of God and not violence. I hope you see how easy it is to get an honest explanation to an honest question. Thank you for your concern. Jesus loves you.

Why should you kill him, In the new testament is says in Ephesians 6:4 Fathers, provoke not your children to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture & admonition of the Lord & also in Colossians 3:21Fathers provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discourage, So now do you want to go against what the Bible really says in the new Testament. & yes in Eph 6:1 & Colossians 3:20 It says Childre obey your parents. So as a parent you should have the wisdom to know how to handle a situation. I guess you thought you were going to pull one over on us Christians.

Obviously a hypothetical, but really...why be logical...
Getting all emotional is easier than explaining why the Bible reads as though it was written by many members of what another poster today referred to as an "ancient death cult".

Where does it say kill your disobedient child.You probably have never even read a full chapter in the Bible.I would bet you haven't.That is the problem with all you dumb asses in this world ridicule off hearsay.That is part of the reason this planet is so screwed up.

You may wish to express yourself more effectively.
Trying to prove the Bible stupid is a life-long project that is never really successful.

It seems that if if you don't Jesus will be upset.
I suggest however that you don't.
There are many other people to kill according to the Bible...
Those ancient middle eastern tales and legends can realy be so evil...
