Show me this "electric chair" as you put it then?
Can't eat prawns? Is it a sin?
Can't work on a Sunday is that a sin? Cause I worked plenty of Sundays and nothing bad happened in fact I used to get paid 1.5 times for weekends. Millions of people work on Sundays there is no thunderbolts from the sky coming down to smite anyone for that.
Shall not kill is a sin? That's not Devine law that's man made agreement Has been used conditionally for thousands of years. That law changes depending on who is in charge and the time period. Bible encouraged slavery and killing while also saying though shall not kill. This God in the bible gave the green light to killing certain people. Is it a sin then?
This is why I dont subscribe to the divine law because it's made up and stupid. And clearly reflected the barbaric practices 2000 years ago. I dont mind taking about sin at all dont know where you got the notion. You are projecting an idea that somehow I believe in same concepts that you do.
News flash I don't.
Universal laws are immutable, unbreakable and you cannot live outside them. They are observable and constant meaning they are always there to be discovered consistently there whether you believe In them or not. Religious laws are merely some generic customs and practices that very often reflect the time frame of a particular sect of people.
Let's test you once again. What goes through your mind -- what are your thoughts when you read passages like this?
Colossians 3:5-10
5 Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature:
sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. 6 Because of these, the wrath of God is coming. 7 You used to walk in these ways, in the life you once lived. 8 But now you must also rid yourselves of all such things as these:
anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your lips. 9
Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.
Are you inclined to disagree with what is said here? The way I see it the human body still works the same today as it did 2,000 years ago. Lying is still lying, stealing is still stealing and cheating is still cheating. Nothing has really changed if you think about it. Oh and before you go on about how we know more about how everything works due to the advancement of Science, good for you. That knowledge has no bearing on whether to hide my shame or cheat to win. People, such as yourself, still use filthy language. Oh but don't worry, the Earth is older than 6,000 years right?
The Sabbath is from Friday sundown to Sunday sunrise. You can work on Sunday, no problem.

In my country people do not speak at funerals at all. The pastor is the only one, so be happy, it wont happen. I wont speak at a funeral and spread my atheism.
And even if I would speak at a funeral, I wouldnt have a problem playing along. If the dead person and his family would have been religious I would absolutely be able to say they are in a better place and so on. No problem. Its not my show. When another person dies, that person deserves my respect and I will of course give it to them.

Woohoo, I guess that's one less thing to worry about.

I don't have any problem with crawling snakes or ever mentioned anything to do with crawling. I specifically said talking snake
Why are you so determined to demonstrate your lack of reading skills? We already know, you proved that countless times already.
I look forward when you attempt to over simplify evolution vs creation argument. You are clearly demonstrating your kindergarten education to its fullest capacity. ;)
I for one, absolutely love how you quoted yourself and told yourself why you are so determined to demonstrate your lack of reading skills that you have proven countless times already. Oh the irony.
