Countless times people have quoted from the bible,quran etc.....and asked 'questions' about the said verses....thepeople who answer say not to take things out of context.....

1) to the questioner

Why don't you people read a verse etc....completely and not pull it out from some web-site thats biased, before you ask a question, believeing that YOU of all the THOSANDS of people out there had found some holy grail that coverts epople to your religion etc.....Do you often have such perspections....?

2)The questionee

Will you people stop asking the above people to take thigs out of context and do more to research the proper context and give a valid irrefutable answer you so solemly believe.....?

Agreed. That's why when I ask a question I cite a large passage rather than an individual verse, so the context of the statement is more obvious.

And when I answer with passages I do the same, and try to explain the whole passage, especially the way that particular verse relates to the passage as a whole.

And I don't copy / paste either... I just identify the passage. If someone's actually interested, they'll go look it up on their own. And they'll have to read the whole thing to be sure they found the few words I am referring to specifically.

Ether way you guys do it, its still up to the individual observer to form their own opionins about the verse's in question. Which is actually a fundemental problem of ALL communications between people, words can only do so much. Which is why we have 100s if not 1000s of different denaminations of one religious doctrine. Its sad that instead of just requinizing how these actually changes the face of religion we just descide its a small inconvience..... its actual THE inconvience that PROVES that god wouldn't be so thoughtless as to communicate thru such a FLAW'D medium. But we still want to make him as imperfect as us... vengence anyone?
