Do you realize you are adding nothing to this argument?

I think yoU miss the pont, tho. Yeah, they didnt have to put it that way, but Folktlale...I think he means it is ancient scripture and should be regarded as such, not as literal truth. Oh he's left? I'm done. Whatever.

it's clearly not going to end anywhere and as a mod you should on the whole be trying to stop it or atleast not encouraging it.

As I said earlier through past experience its much better to let this stuff play out or it leaks into every thread. And i'm tired of being told 'as a mod', i'm a goddamn member like everyone else.

And like oojay you aren't being forced to read this thread.

And the world is flat. Uber-million Christians? The largest religion, Christianity. The largest denomination, Catholicism. The most popular area for Catholicism, Africa - a third world continent. The Catholic conversion techniques - withholding aid from the unconfirmed. On the other hand, the largest growing religion (including in most Western countries), Islam.

Primary socialisation and the inaccessibility of facts, resources and education are the reasons for which the Christian religion remains so large in the 21st Century. Hell, Christianity only holds the sway it does in America as a result of the rebirth-drive that far right fundamentalists had in the '70s, guilting people with talk of higher morals as a method of converting people to their pseudo-theology. Coupled with the massive conversion tactics of the US penal system and the favour shown to reborn Christians ...

Not really a great argument in your favour.

Maybe because fundamentalist Christians and far-right Conservatives are the two most detrimental forces in Western society, and the fact that you sit yourself so happily amongst them doesn't really bode well for your future popularity?

I dont agree with bestiality either if thats what youre asking. You people are stooges. You arent even christians (admittedly so) and criticize my christianity and ask me "why do you care about g@y marriage if youre not g@y?" youre a bunch of hypocrites.

That's not what he's asking at all. He's asking why you aren't against shaving, for stoning gay people to death, or any of the other absurd rules previously listed that can be conveniently found in Leviticus.

~nutshell~ 01-08-2007 08:16 PM

let it go.

Men who engage in sexual intercourse with their wives while their wives are menstrating
Sabbath breakers*
Blasphemers
Unbelievers
Those who engage in beastiality

The list is almost 25 verses long.

*There is a great story in Numbers where the Israelites find a man collecting sticks on the sabbath. They arrest him and take him to Moses. Moses asks God what to do about it and God says "This man shall surely be put to death"
