Do you have any questions about the Bible?

[Tock]

Here's some more interesting things to look up in the Bible . . .

Deuteronomy
22:12 -- Must sew tassels on your clothes
15:1-3 Must cancel all debts every 7 years
22:5 Women are not to wear men's clothing
23:1 Eunuchs can not go to church
23:2 Neither a bastard nor his descendants can go to church
23:28-29 Adultery resolved by paying the woman's father $$$
25:5-10 A childless widow's brother-in-law must marry and impregnate her
21:10-14 How to dispose of captured women as wives
25:11-12 If a woman pulls on a man's "secrets," then cut her hand off.
13:5 Death to anyone who interprets dreams
18:20-22 Death to anyone who makes an inaccurate prophecy

Leviticus
19:27 Must not trim your sideburns or beard
11:6-10 Must not eat rabbit, ham, bacon, oysters, clams, or shrimp
14:35 Got mildew in your bathroom? Then you must call the priest
19:13 Got employees? Then you must pay them at the end of every work shift
19:26 Must not eat rare steak
19:28 Tattoos are sinful
25:25-28 Every 50 years, all real estate reverts to its original owner.
12:1-8 Childbirth is a sin, but giving birth to a girl is twice as bad as giving birth to a boy

I Corinthians
11:14 Men may not have long hair
11:15 Women may not have short hair
11:4 Men must not wear hats while praying or prophesying
11:5 Women must wear hats while praying or prophesying
11:7 Men are the image and glory of God, but women are only the glory of men
14:34 Women are not to speak or ask questions in church, but must wait until they get home and then ask their husbands.

I Timothy
2:9 Women are not to braid their hair or wear any jewelry (see also I Peter 3:3)
2:14 The disobedience in the Garden of Eden was entirely Eve's fault

Exodus
21:7 Fathers may sell their daughters into slavery
21:1-11 Male slaves must be set free after 6 years, but not female slaves
21:20-21 A slaveowner can beat and kill a slave, but only if the slave dies a slow and lingering death.
21:32 Slaves are worth 30 coins
22:2-4 Sell poor theives into slavery

Judges
11:29-40 Jephthah the Israelite engages in human sacrifice (offers his own daughter)


Jehovah approves of Sawing people in half, while still alive:
II Samuel 12:31
I Chronicles 20:3
Hebrews 11:37
3: And he brought out the people that were in it, and cut them with saws, and with harrows of iron, and with axes. Even so dealt David with all the cities of the children of Ammon. And David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.


This is the book that is held up as a model of good behaviour, as a beacon of morality. IMHO, it is a horrible book.

Is it a "horrible book" because it does not approve of your lifestyle?

Is it a "horrible book" because it does not approve of your lifestyle?

Isn't it enough that it demands death for

adultery
homosexuality
witchcraft
blasphemy <-------- ya, let me decide what blasphemy is . . .
interpreting dreams
sabbath-breaking

???

Wouldn't you think so?

And there are lots more reasons to consider it a horrible book.

If satan were real, would he approve of homosexuality?

Satan is about as real as your question.
Wanna try again?
