Whilst the illustrated example of the case that established products liability (Donoghue -v- Stevenson, 1933) was 'Love thy neighbour' becomes in the law 'You must not injure your neighbour', the fact that this was Christian religious doctrine was largely due to the prevailing religion of the place in which the events took place.

Precedents have also been set whereby it is fair to argue that a man has a right to rape his wife if she refuses to grant sexual favours of her own accord...I can't imagine there's a religion out there that would want to lay claim to that one.
true blood said:The Law of Moses was given to the Israel Nation some 15 centuries before the birth of Jesus Christ. It was only given to Israel. It was never designed to be a permanent legal system. There are numerous New Testament passages which affirm its termination. You are in error by thinking it has anything to do with being Christian. Love thy neighbor as thy self was also terminated because it's conditional and only existed from Christ's birth unto his ascension. Today's principle, since the day of Pentacost, is to love all people just like Jesus Christ loved the world.

The item nailed to the cross, was your and my record of sin, 'the handwriting of ordinances that were against us.' A perfect law(Torah) a holy, just and good law(Torah) was never against us!
Doesn't your Bible say, Both God and Jesus are unchanging?
Get out of "Replacement Theology" it is hazardous to your place in the Kingdom!

true blood said:So when, where, and how was this promise fulfilled? Christ's words "he will guide...he shall speak...he will show" are definite. Therefore only one place to look for the answer is the epistles which are addressed to the Church of the Body. In the 7 epistles we have the perfect truth into which the Spirit was to guide and lead, they contain all the truth Christ could not speak while on earth for the time had not come for this revelation. They contain "the things to come..." Seriously, different parts of the Bible are addressed to different groups of people. You cannot group the Church epistles with other sections of the Bible. The epistles were addressed directly to the Church: Romans, Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Thessalonians. So why do you accept the four gospels especially the Sermon on the Mount, the Apostles Creed, the Lord's Prayer, and the ten commandments as being basic doctrines of Christianity INSTEAD of the knowledge revealed in those epistles?
QUOTE]Everything you quoted of the Bible are good, your commentary and conclusions are HOG WASH. You and I are off subject. I will not comment on this thread further on RT.
pah said:I searched FindLaw for Supreme Court cases with both of the names you referenced and found none, i.e. Stevenson was not a participant with Donoghue and vice versa. Could this have been an Appeals Court case?
