Bismillah:
Quote:God creates the bond of Marriage. Simply "not liking eachother" is no reason. The Bible, therefore, does not provide an outlet for people who just want to give up. However, if a husband is abusive or somebody is unfaithful then that is different.
in my opinion, a perfect religion has to offer the solution for such problems, and that's why divorce in Islam is permits if life became unbearable between husband and wife.
Quote:I am not sure what you are talking about here.
i was talking about for example verses like this:
Deuteronomy 13:6-9 "If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying: <b>Let us go and worship other gods </b> (gods that neither you nor your fathers have known, gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other, or gods of other religions), <b>do not yield to him or listen to him. Show him no pity. Do not spare him or shield him. You must certainly put him to death. Your hand must be the first in putting him to death, and then the hands of all the people." </b>
Deuteronomy 17:3-5 "And he should go and worship other gods and bow down to them or to the sun or the moon or all the army of the heavens, .....<b>and you must stone such one with stones and such one must die." </b>
2 Chronicles 15:13 "All who would not seek the LORD, the God of Israel, <b>were to be put to death</b>, whether small or great, man or woman."
these are only three verses that i mentioned concerning killing those who ask you to worship other gods. but there are other verses about killing innocent kids too, and many others.

Wael.
