Nevermind the fool(s) who actually DID the killing...
Lemme see if I get this straight:
"Thou shalt not kill-unless you can PAY somebody else to do it."
Or maybe-"Thou shalt not kill-unless the killing has already started and the guy's a scumbag anyway, so what the hell...."
How about-" Thou shalt not kill unless it's justified-And it's not justified unless WE SAY it's justified-'Cause we're in charge."
Eruh. You fundies and sheeple want me to have FAITH!!?? Faith in WHAT?? Stupidity?? Hypocrisy?? Cole Slaw?? WHAT!!!??
It's all made up on a whim on the fly. Stuff like this just convinces me that god didn't create man in his own image. Man created god in HIS own image to assuage his own needs and fears.
"Ten Commandments" my foot......"Ten Conveniences" is more like it from what I can see.
Have a blinkered day.

There is no shortage of hypocrisy within the Christan community, I think this is why our Lord felt it necessary that such acts should be addressed in the Bible. Those who will receive the worst punishment are men that put themselves out as Christians but continue to do evil things which might lead others away from the Church.
What is it that the Bible has to say about people like Mr. Sennett?
In Luke 17:2 it says "It would be better for him to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around his neck than for him to cause one of these little ones to sin."
In 2nd Peter 2 1:2 it says "1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping."
The above passages for the most part are making reference to those who are in leadership roles within the Church who might commit hypocritical acts that might lead others astray.
Personally I think people like Charlie Manson deserve more respect than the likes of Mr. Sennett.
On a final note I will not make it a habit to write BG type posts
