Question

Does the Bible approve nuking enemies? (1 Samuel 15:1-15)?

Answer 1

Sure, what do you think happen at Sodom and Gomorrah?  Although aliens probably had a hand in that.

Answer 2

For self defence.

Answer 3

if the ones being nuked follow a different religion, yes.

Answer 4

It is prophesied in Revelation chapter 6 that the false prophet will use a great sword. A sword is a weapon. What greater weapon in the history of time could be worse or even equal a nuclear weapon?

Rev 6:4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

Answer 5

though shalt not kill...yeah i think that covers nuking too

Answer 6

The bible aproves destruction of all oposing religions no matter what the cost!

Answer 7

If you are talking about national security, God gave the nation Israel direction about war.  However, Jesus gives us as Christians a different outlook.  He says His Kingdom is not on this earth so He is does not fight.  His Kingdom will be set up when He makes a new Heaven and Earth.  He also tells us to love out enemies.  The Real En enemy is the sin inside us.

Answer 8

no, you are not supposed to kill anybody. also, jesus gave his diciples another commandment to love one another. nuking your enemies is clearly against that.

Answer 9

why don't you compare it to the Koran and find out.

Answer 10

Basically, yes.
