Amen.

You better watch out.
You better not lie.
You better be good I'm telling you why.

Incorrect. There is no godly "killing" in any manner that could be said to equate with what happens when one human being unlawfully kills another. True, the wicked are completely and utterly wiped off the face of the earth, but why is this cause for alarm (unless you are one of them)? There is then no more evil, no more immorality, no more crime, no more addiction, no more human misery caused by the evil human beings do to each other and/or foist indirectly on others through the poor or reckless use of their agency.

I'm not sure what is meant by the term "kill" in this context. The bodies of the wicked will be annihilated, but their spirits will live on, eternally. God cannot "kill" anyone in any absolute sense.

An interesting exploration of this subject is found in the Bhagavad Gita, within the context of its just war theory.

We're making our lists,
To see what We'll take
To Jackson County while he wicked quake
The Millennium is comin' to town.

We're making our lists,
To see what We'll take
To Jackson County while he wicked quake
The Millennium is coming to town.

The Horsemen come a knocking
One red, one black, one pale
The wicked run around and howl
It's a global fire sale

Ohh your better not scream
You better not cry
Just pay your tithing I'm telling you why
The Millennium is coming to town

Porter,

isn't the real reason the guy was excommunicated because he's a fag? I mean, if your gonna make a calender, why do it with a bunch of 21 year old guys with their shirts off? Maybe hes not a fag, but a calender like this sure doesent point the opinion in the other direction does it?

Also, how many of the "models" got ex'd ?
