My bad. When you used the terms "cowardly" and "cajones" I mistakenly thought you were discussing courage.

That's all I was getting at. Turning that into an attack on my personal courage (or lack thereof) is completely irrelevant, and specious besides.

I've noticed that no one has addressed my central question:
would you or would you not kill your child if God asked you to. Of course, I realize why no one wants to answer it. |

It just turns my stomach to see you hold up Danzig as a beacon of courage after you have been castigating him so thoroughly. I am pointing out your hypocrisy. You are the last person to call someone cowardly for posting anonymously.

It's not hypocritical if I never claimed to be courageous.

No, I don't think I could do that. And I am quite sure I will never be expected to. I have a tough time believing in a God that would ask me to do evil as a test of my righteousness.

Fair enough. Then what gave you the moral authority to call out the anonymous poster here as cowards?
