Quote From: boogiebear I hear people say this so much. They believe in the the instructions given in the Bible as a guide to day to day living. I wonder if they have set down and read the book.
In Deuteronomy 22:28-29, you are instructed that if a man rapes a virgin woman, that if he is commanded to give the father 50 pieces of silver and take her as his wife.(imagine giving your daughter over to her rapist for some money, so he can force her to be his wife?)
In Lev. 11:7-11, you are commanded that eating or touching of swine flesh is an abomination( Who wants to go tell the NFL they are all in danger of going to hell, or being stoned for throwing around a pigskin football?)
In Lev. 15-19-33 tells how unclean a woman is on her period, and what things you have to do to be around a woman on her period. I would hate to see two turtles and two pigeons get killed every month I have one.
In Lev. 20:10 Adultery means both parties gets killed. That would really cut down on the population of the US and Canada.
The Bible teaches love and tolerance. It teaches forgiveness and hope. Even if you believe in the Bible as the exact word of God(the KJV, not sure how God wrote in English, or the Oxford English Scholars who translated it were perfect) please remember people who don't believe exactly like you believe still believe in God. Lets all respect each other.
We've gone over the Leviticus stuff many times before already and pretty much figured these are old laws. Christ came to fulfill the law. The only thing mentioned in the Old Testament that also happens to be addressed a few times in the new is homosexuality.
