So what's your personal preference/personal interpretation of the Bible with regard to the matter of governments executing their citizens?

I am undecided on the issue. If someone has any scripture to support their view I will listen to them.
If a government made it a capital offence for anyone who dishonours their father or mother - and put people to death for it - would you find it morally justifiable? There's scripture to support it.

Do you mean "An atheist's morals"?
Atheist morals is non-sensical.
Like asking what is the favourite colour of stamp-collectors.
Hmm.
Ask a Christian like Suzy about abortion and she will tell you how wonderful it really is, as where most churches I know condemn it.

Not fueled by fear of eternal torment, that's for sure.

Originally posted by @dj2beckerBut whatever view you end up preferring [because you're still undecided, right?], that will be "objective", whichever view you opt for, yes?
It will only be true and objective if it is in agreement with scripture.

Leviticus 20:9
Which part of the above are you struggling with?
Originally posted by @wolfgang59You nailed it. There is only one thing to derive from a declaration of atheism, and that is simply that they have not shown there is a god yet. Any god, let alone their particular flavor!

Global warming should be discussed in Debates. Or in science, but I suggest you stay away from attempting to be scientific :/
Politics should definitely be discussed in Debates.

Atheists seek a collective salvation through the state since there is no eternal heaven to be obtained.
Sin is polluting, not being PC, driving and SUV, being a bigot (aside from being bigoted towards white conservative Christians, that is cool) having a free market, or simply having orange hair.

Do you find it as offensive as, say, people not standing up for the national anthem?

Not you of course. 😵
Originally posted by @whodeyNo, it seems to me that people criticising Trump and people not standing for the National Anthem also very much bother you - so much so that you'd like to see people lose their jobs over it. Which is a bit weird, to be honest.

Have you seen the attendance at NFL games recently?
