You are afraid of the volcano? You want us to do something about it? Fine, give us your 12 year old daughter that is what the volcano wants. Likewise, the Romans did the same thing. You aren't happy? You want your own leader? Fine, let's nail him to a cross.



If you think it is more civilized now then you are blind. You think what Pol Pot did was more civilized? How about Stalin, or Mao, or Hitler? What about 911. Those are all human sacrifices on a far larger and more horrific scale than anything the Mayans did. Once again, it is the complete opposite of the Lord's table. These rulers kill their people so that they can eat, the Lord gave His body so that we could eat.



If it is an "ancient" superstition you haven't explained Hitler's gas chambers, a very modern invention. You haven't explained Rwanda, a very modern genocide.



How are you so blind? Do you even know where your tax dollars go? You do realize that we have done away with habeas corpus for our enemies. You do realize that we have pretended to outlaw torture until it was more convenient to just "redefine" it.

I see you're back to trying not to get it. Forget God's lexicon. You've got your own.
