The Bible says that we should not take revenge
Edited on Fri Feb-01-08 06:27 PM by Bleachers7
Luke 9:54-55 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

And love your enemies

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

GDP, please join me in prayer. O8)

1. The Bible also says
that we shouldn't wear clothes with mixed wool and linens (Leviticus 19:19) and that women exist solely for the sexual gratification of men (Romans 1:27).

The Bible code people also say that in November, Obama and Edwards will involved in an assassination (presumably one kills the other), that Clinton will be elected and is the Antichrist. link to the hilarity
