Have you ever wonder why there is so much killing going on in our world? Have you ever wonder how killing, especially done by folks who say they believe and follow the Bible and yet they consistently elect the most warmongering public officials? Have you ever wondered how they justify it in their minds 6 days out of the week and then on Sundays.. they hear it blasted from the pulpit, “Thou Shalt Not Kill”?
Of course that is a major assumption that folks are in their Temples, Churches and Synagogues listening to their spiritual leaders chirping out one of the most highly esteemed commandments of “Thy Shalt Not Kill.”
This commandment seems to be one of the biggest and most often broken commandments that the Abrahamic Religions are hard pressed to justify when they blatantly and often viciously defy it.
So, I offer you, what is in my view, an intriguing analysis of this commandment and possibly the cognitive dissonance that goes with it. Especially for those who don’t understand the deeper meaning of this edict.
Professor John Hartung is ethnically Jewish and was raised in a religiously Jewish family. He does not profess to be a Biblical scholar, however, he did say he read the Bible cover to cover, 3 times, and he also discusses the original writings and their meaning.
“Thou Shall Not Kill” by Struggles for Existence
An incisive analysis into the famous Biblical verse 'Thou Shall Not Kill' which isn't at all what it has been misinterpreted to mean. And a political analysis of people who know its true meaning and how they use it to their advantage.

John Hartung (born 1947) is a Professor of anesthesiology at the State University of New York. His BA is from the University of Pennsylvania and his PhD is from Harvard University in anthropology. He is the former Associate Editor of the Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology.[1]
He has also published some widely cited work in other fields, notably some early pioneering research in human behavioral ecology on inheritance patterns[2] and also a controversial paper in Skeptic in which he argued that biblical injunctions to 'love thy neighbour' and the Ten Commandments were, properly interpreted, intended to apply only to behavior towards fellow Jews.[3] This latter article has been referred to favourably in popular books such as Matt Ridley's The Origins of Virtue and Richard Dawkins's bestseller The God Delusion but also, together with a favourable review of the earlier work of controversial psychologist Kevin MacDonald on Judaism,[4] proved controversial. Nevertheless, despite criticism of Hartung's review of MacDonald's book, Dick Alexander, the then-president of the Human Behavior and Evolution Society (of which Hartung was formerly the secretary), defended Hartung.[5]

Well, that video was interesting, (especially sinc I'm an evangelical-christian-survivor [from the 1980s]). Though pretty familiar with the bible I had not made such a clearly expressed distinction between in-group morality and general morality.
