spindrift Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 It isn't part of MY holy work; I said on the previous page that even most Christians consider large parts of the Bible to be archaic and obsolete. I do, the OT, certainly. I don't believe someone could build a fire in a whale's belly. There is nothing Jesus said that I can disagree with, challenging as it it is, the beirdy weirdy.

People will happily disregard the instructions to defecate in a small hole covered with leaves because it is hopelessly outdated, but the equally old, equally questionable, instructions to kill all homosexuals somehow are still valid and must be followed without hesitation.

An excellent example of what I was talking about. Or at least, what I was trying to talk about; I might not be making myself entirely clear if you thought I was trying to defend Leviticus and Deuteronomy.

Tradescanthia Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I do not understand gay couples wanting religious ceremonies. 1) Why would a gay couple want a religious ceremony when the religion in question condemns their relationship? 2) Why should a religious instituation that disagrees with same sex relationships be expected to bless any such union? Gays only do it to be confrontational. They are challenging society, inviting the church to refuse them so they can get some organisation like Stonewall to have a tantrum on their behalf. If a church/mosque/synagogue/temple makes them unwelcome then why try to force acceptance ????? Acceptance is a slow process, it will come 'all in good time'. Forcing an issue only hardens attitudes.

Rupert_Baehr Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 So you would put to death anyone who worked on Sundays? Or wore a polyester/cotton shirt? What's the 'going rate' if you want to sell your daughter into slavery nowadays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grahame Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 No, indeed; but Deuteronomy is also part of the Christian holy work. That's for Jews written by their own priests the Levities hence Leviticus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
