Now, let me think. What is more important in Christian doctrine? The Ten Commandments, the 'forgiving' nature of Christianity, treating your neighbour as you would haev them treat you?
"Let he without sin cast the first stone"
In other words, you can find justification for almost anything in the bible. But 99% of people agree that Christianity is not more associated with "an eye for an eye" (in fact, that's an argument that is often used against Islam!), but more with "thou shall not kill"
So, I repeat. It goes against so-called Christian doctrine.
As an atheist, I really couldn't give a shit if it does or not. I just thinki it's morally wrong.
