So just to be clear, you come across someone on the ground with needles next to them, you intend on doing nothing and letting them die?Josh wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 3:02 pmI'm not going to go near a dangerous person who uses needles and will become violent and abusive if you interrupt their really good high. So the answer is "no". That person has already forfeited their own life, and I think it's bizarre to think that Jesus would have gone around adminsitering narcan - he didn't, and he already knew what Narcan was, and decided it wasn't something that needed to be part of his ministry on earth. It could have been, but it wasn't.Soloist wrote: ↑Thu Sep 14, 2023 2:37 pm Sure let’s have some tough love. That’s taking away drugs!
Tough love isn’t letting them die in the street from a drug overdose. That’s incompatible just like just war with Christianity.
Obviously if you don’t have it, you don’t have it. Are you going to stand by and let a person die? Or attempt to help with cpr?
