New Tarantino picture has one of the best casts ever

Exodus 21:20
 “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, 21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.

There is quite a bit of discussion and additional context that can be had on the topic of servants in the old testament.  I'm not sure what good it would do discuss all that with someone who doesn't believe in God.

I feel like if you were genuinely interested in this issue you would research it on your own.  Perhaps you are like a lot of non-believers that post certain scriptures only because they think it makes Christianity look bad.

The Expendables series has the best casts ever IMO.

Right up there with the Fast and Furious movies?

My point was, cherry picking verses that seem flowery and wise from the bible, opens the door to realizing there are a lot of not so nice stuff in there as well.

He is the way he is by choice.  It's said that the abyss between a man's ego and wisdom is unmatched save that between man and the Nazarene.  The latter is easily crossed because doing so requires but a leap of faith. Which when you think about it cannot be done in two jumps...Unless of course, there is someone there to catch you.  That would be the One.  If you believe.  That is the message of completion that is the New Testament.

I choose not to believe but I also choose not to belittle. For the faith of the Nazarene is one of love and peace and there is nothing but good in that.  Such as this fAgnostic007 fellow make fun of the Christ but say not a word against muslimes and the like.  He's a pussy.  Leave him to his chosen doom.  Shake the dust of his kind from your feet.  

Fuck the useless twit.  He's not worth a single prayer.

If you've read and understood the bible you would know that it isn't cherry picking and believers don't think the bible is all flowery and nice.

Matthew 10:34-39

34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’; 36 and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’ 37 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38 And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39 He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.

I have read it, a few times over the years. To be honest, I don't think most believers really know what it says other than the common scripture preachers use on a rotating basis during their sermons. I get the impression you have read it, but in my opinion, you are the minority.

You may be right.   Most modern pastors go up there and do a 45 minute mildly amusing stand-up routine using anecdotes from their life.

Thankfully, I have found a church that actually studies the bible line by line.

My thread has been about pretty much everything. Just not my original video

Good. If you are going to be in it... be in it... not spoon fed the same old John 3:16 every Sunday

so it is ok for me to beat my slave as long as they are not killed

[Pray_4_War]

I'm not sure.  Try it and report back.   

[Agnostic007]

Well, according to the bible yes. It's part of the pile of info that caused me to doubt it in the first place.

According to Moses (Or whoever was the real author of this particular scripture) God told him that you can beat your male of female slave with a rod. If the slave dies, you will be punished, but if the slave recovers it is fine because the slave is your property. Now some will embarrass themselves tripping over trying to explain how a god could allow such a law and view but it really comes down to this;

Either a God, who created humans and considers them his Children,  made a rule that allows for another human to beat a slave within an inch of their lives or
Slave owning men authored that portion of the bible to fit their belief.

For me it is a no brainer.

yes, u are a no brainer.. very good lol

dumb and lazy

sane men on this forum..... at risk of beating a dead horse, I again offer the fact that left people are not capable of logic... they are - by their very nature – opposed to reality.

Probably has to do with Samuel L. Jackson's semi quoting the Bible - What Samuel emphatically quotes as Ezekiel 25:17 is this:
“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.”

Here is the King James version of the passage - Ezekiel 25:17 King James Version
17 And I will execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.

Tarantino takes literary liberties via Jackson's excellent character, if you will. Not a  problem as it is just a film.  I suspect this is why the thread has taken on a Biblical theme.  Kinda. Sorta.

There you have it. Even Tarantino reads the bible.

hateful 8 had potential but tried too hard for shock factor , that scene with a naked prisoner in the snow sucking Samuel L jacksons penis was unnecessary and served nothing in the plot , only the dunk the movie lower ,
