He starts by agreeing with a simple principle: You don’t punish people for crimes they didn’t commit. Then we open the Bible.
In 2 Samuel 24, 70,000 people die for David’s actions. In 2 Samuel 12, an innocent child suffers and dies, and David’s wives are handed over as punishment for his sin. Same principle. Same standard. Suddenly… different answer.
Watch what happens when the moral rule he just agreed to collides with the text he’s defending. This is what it looks like when a belief system forces you to abandon your own moral instincts.
