THE LAWS OF GOD - #6.B

Public Health and Sanitation

God has set forth HIS Laws in the Holy Scriptures for ALL Mankind to know--and obey (Proverbs 14:34 and Isaiah 60:12)!

6. THOU (you) SHALL NOT KILL (Murder)

.A MURDER AND VIOLENT CRIMES

This issue of the 6th Commandment was covered previously. See at: LAW-6.A, above.

.B PUBLIC HEALTH AND SANITATION:

The 6th Commandment is not only concerned with the rapid deaths from murder and violent crime, but it also has a dimension in dealing with slow forms of killing, most of which deal with biological hazards and environmental polutants, which need proper care to contain in order to prevent the spread of disease and its eventual death(s). So, read thoroughly and follow these Laws carefully.
..1 TREATMENT OF CONTAGIONS (Diseases, Plagues, Leprosies):
The Holy Scriptures set forth all kinds of instructions for dealing with the normal, natural diseases that like to prey on Mankind.

..2 TREATMENT OF NATURAL BIOLOGICAL HAZARDS:
Unfortunately, since the Fall of man, many biological hazards are lurking about in Nature, waiting to prey upon Man. So, we need to observe some simple guidlines to keep from being taken by them.

..3 SOCIAL DISEASES (V.D.):
the practice of marriage and the prohibition against adultery ought to nealry eliminate the common sexually transmitted diseases. However, considering the frailties of Man (and woman), care must be taken to limit and reduce the spread of these Social Diseases (such as thorough washings and use of condomns). And, while contracting a Venereal Disease might be somewhat understandable, and tolerable(?), the knowingly spreading of a V.D. is considered as a murder and is a capital crime (especially if it is not curable)--See also, LAW-7.B.6 Infectication under Mosaic Taboos.

..4 ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTANTS:
poisons, toxins, and other lethal environmental pollutants are to be carefully contained, transported as a hazard, and quickly cleaned up if accidently spilled by the company involved in the chemical. Failure to take rapid and prudent action in such a spill is Negligent Manslaughter (see above, under Murder Classifications) and will subject the said company to the liability of all the damgages and injuries that their actions of neglect may have caused! (Deuteronomy 32:24-25, 33; Judges 9:45; Job 20:14-20; Jeremiah 17:5-6)

..5 NON-SMOKING:
the smoking of tobacco (or other dangerous substances) is specifically banned from all Congregational Facilities and Public Places in Our Realm--and members are seriously warned not to smoke at all (that they not contract a variety of diseases), and officials are required not to smoke, lest they bring down the wrath of God upon the Assembly (Leviticus 10:1-2; Numbers 26:61).

..6 ABLUTIONS AND WASHINGS (Cleansings):
water tends to be a universial solvent and its power to wash away and cleanse areas of contaminants is potent, giving it purificantion significance in the Holy Scriptures. Consequently, there are a variety of washings to be observed to keep the individual healthy and protected from diseases. Remember, CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS.

.C WARFARE AND RULES OF COMBAT

While some hold that warfare is just organized murder, we find many laws concerning war in the Holy Scriptures. To deal with these, we have prepared the following section:
