Was Lauren Boebert right in saying Christ may have prevented his crucifixion if he owned assault-style weapons?

@MarkPaul A fully automatic weapon, what the military use, is already illegal unless owned by a class 3 collector who has paid a tax for every such type weapon he or she has. Further to that only fully automatic weapons that can be legally bought, sold or transferred are those manufactured before 1986. So whether you are talking about an AR-15, a 10-22, a 742 Remmington, they all function the same way all semiautomatic rifles do. A shot can be fired with each pull of the trigger. No more than 1 per pull. Some people can use their finger faster then others but no human can even come close to the cyclic rate of fire of a full auto weapon. Service rifle matches are shot with military style rifles, but they still aren't full auto. The AR-15 is a favorite of target shooters. The only thing different between an AR-15 and any other semi auto rifle on the market is plastic handguards and a pistol grip. The 5.56 NATO cartridge the AR is chambered for isn't really suitable for hunting except for varmints like coyotes, prairie don't and such. They are not suitable for larger game. As far as I know, there hasn't been a shooting with a full auto firearm in decades with the exception of a few shootouts between rival gangs, and lately a few stories about the "Glock trigger", that also is already illegal.

@Roadsterrider "There hasn't been a shooting with a full auto firearm in decades with the exception..." So, there has been a shootout with a full auto firearm. Just say it.

You have veered this conversation so far off the original topic and I have accommodated you. In my opinion Jesus would not support, endorse, or practice what the Boebert woman said.

"F" the NRA.

@MarkPaul You are correct the conversation has veered way off of what Jesus would do. The last full auto firearm used in a shooting that I can recall was the St Valentine's Day massacre back in the 1920s.

@markansas Ha! I would have kept the long hair…thx

@markansas So do you know how the books were chosen? BTW my Bible has the appropha in it. My son's orthodox has other books beside that. Do you have a serious point to make or are just trying to denigrate my faith? BTW I don't worship the Bible. I worship Yahweh. Yahweh speaks through the Bible but that doesn't mean I worship it.

@hippyjoe1955 no that was ok .. just needed to understand a few points. thanks . mark

@markansas The canon of scripture was set by having all the Christian bishops get together and pick the books that belonged. It was very high standard they set. Every book chosen had to have every bishop agree that it belonged there. If even one bishop said no the book was not accepted. Thus the 66 core books were deemed fully canonical. The other books were not burned nor destroyed. They are still available. They simply are not part of the canon. The Catholic church later added the appochipha and the Orthodox church added a couple more but those books were not considered canonical and are referred to as deuterocanonical. Kind of a second canon that justifies some practices in the church that would otherwise not be acceptable. The reformers decided that they would try to get back to the basics and rejected the deuterocanonical books but kept all the canonical books. Having done that they then set the standard Sola Scriptura. In other words unless it is in the Bible we don't do it. Thus Mariology as practiced in the Catholic church is banned and the veneration of the Icons in the Orthodox church is also banned.

You’ve got room at your place, right? 😅@CountScrofula

@Imsleepy Sure I got a spare bedroom but get in quick ! lol

✈️ on it! @CountScrofula

@spjennifer Christain is exactly right. She's a stain on the whole thing.

@LordShadowfire Yes, she is and that was my intent too, these far right evangelicals should not be in Government in any fashion, although I suspect she's just parroting to acquire votes 😖

@LordShadowfire To be clear mate, it's full of eggs. I'm not surprised.

Backatcha

@Freeranger So you know, there are liberals who believe in god. You don't own Sky Daddy and his sexy, blonde haired, blue eyed boy. Who, according to how he was created in the fable lifted from previous fables, would spit in the face of the vast majority of Christians in this country.

@Freeranger Keep talking shit. You're not going to distract me from the fact that you can't respond to the original post.

@markansas The Daily Caller would say he was trans.

@Ynotisay ya and wore a dress also.. and friends with a prostitute .

@markansas Just like all those sexy white dudes with blond hair and blue eyes in the Middle East.

@Zaphod42 Isn't that the name of some song "Jesus in an RV"? 🤪

@LordShadowfire She probably got the "Job" by giving blowjobs! 🤪

@SW-User says a lot about the father who is willing to kill his only son. jesus.
