: I wasn't at all blaming the Bible, but blaming my co-worker for an ignorant interpretation of it. I am sorry that I sounded as though I was maligning any religion.
: I guess all I meant was that she gave a weird excuse for killing, and that it probably is the same story that many people actually believe.
: You know, your old mother tells you that snakes are evil and God hates them because they were the downfall of man in Eden. That kind of thing. It makes me sick when folks use any excuse to kill.
: And like you said it happens in every religion, just this time it was mine.
: Again, I'm sorry I sent the wrong message.

your coworker gave a COVENIENT excuse for doing what she did. The Bible is open to misinterpretation just like any other written document. Twist it, roll it, use it for your own purposes. Black men were enslaved, Native Americans slaughtered, all because people sought justify their own hatred and fears through the misinterpretation of Gods word.
Thanks for reposting the apology. Your coworker. she has issues. My Buddhist friends would say that because of the negatiove CAUSe she put out into the universe, she can expect an equal but opposite AFFECT. I dont want to be around when that happens! I know a LOT of people like her, hope we can create more people like US. *Cheers*
