There are so many different sects of Christians today and they cannot agree on what the Bible says. Each uses it to prove themselves right.

The disagreement is not about what the Bible says but rather about how we should interpret it today. For many Christians, the commandments of the New Testament (Love God, Love your Neighbour) supercede those of the Old Testament. And I disagree with the view that people just use it to "prove themselves right": the complexities can make for rich discussion and dialog. Thankfully, inflammatory postings on thespec.com are not representative of this dialog.

I cannot say for sure what actions God approves of or not. I can only infer from scripture, tradition, and reason how I myself should act.

Finally, readers may not know that only RC's can direct their property taxes to support separate schools.
