God's Word...

[BRiT]

Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a US radio personality who dispenses advice to people who call in to her radio show. Recently, she said that, as an observant orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance.

The following is an open letter to Dr. Laura penned by a US resident, Jim, which was posted on the Internet.


Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them.

1. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord-Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual cleanliness-Lev.15:19-24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination-Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.



Now, what's your take on the questions asked?

[Smiss]

Omfg!!! <3 <3 <3

[lojasmo]

I hope she burns in whatever hell she believes in.

[anti-movielife]

thats why i'm a secular humanist
dr.laura is just another ignorant loser...

[lobo]

secular .... hmmm ... sounds like silicone ... :mfinger:

[lojasmo]

:mfinger: :mfinger: :mfinger: :mfinger: :mfinger: :D

[lobo]

"LoHasmo" sounds like "secular harazmo" :mfinger: :sword:

[BRiT]

As much as I searched, I could not find the answer to the questions... especially the owning of Canadians...

[Smiss]

What the hell is she a doctor OF anyway? Retards?

[lojasmo]

How the body works. She has "certificate" in marriage and family councelling. What a joke.

[Mental]

these are some fucked up questions id say.he wants to sell his daughter into slavery? anyone got this guys email i think i found a target board to test my viruses on when i start making some but i havent found a site that can give me the basics yet.

[Sod]

she is an honerable ass doctor (a proctologist) and she suffers from severe vaginal discharge, i don't believe in god so those questions are a bunch of whooie to me

[Forceman22]

That's kind of ironic. You say you don't believe in god then you have the kleenex shit under your post. And i can't believe someone could misspell the work hono rable! And we should not let the gays marry. They shouldn't have even leagallized sodomy. (that's butt-sex). If you say "what about doin' a girl up the badonkadonk?" Then you are a fag in training. All anal sex is nasty. I even FF through it in pornos, that is if i watched them ;) !

[Broken]

Ahh who gives a damn what dr.laura says?

[badassmtbiker]

This is kinda old. I think she made the statement in 2000, or 2001. Not that it makes it any different. Dr. Laura has since renounced her Orthodox Jewish faith (sometime last year). Doesn't change the fact that she's a physiologist dispensing relationship and life advice to people all over the country. I mean, sure, she has a PhD, but I bet most of her listeners think she's a shrink. Her counseling certification in CA has lapsed, and hasn't been valid for years. She's just like Dr. Phil - two people that are cashing in on telling American's what's wrong with them. They're both hypocrites, and a big part of what's wrong with our country.

[crentallyPissed]

i hate that arrogantt bitchface

[lojasmo]

Leagallized? You're a dipshit. Don't criticize the spelling of others if you can't fucking spell yourself.

Sodomy also includes oral sex, so if you've ever gotten or given that, then you may want to re-think your stance on the legalization of sodomy.

The issue of gays marrying is a straw man. It would take a constitutional ammendment to outlaw gay marriage, and that just isn't going to happen. The REAL issue is equal protection under the law for all people. That means CIVIL UNIONS.

I think, instead of outlawing gay marriage (first ammendment) they should outlaw both divorce and adultry (legal statutes) THAT might stop some REAL threats to the institution of marriage.


Go spew your ignorant bullshit on freerepublic.

ciao

[tharuz]

If you think something's nasty it doesn't mean it should be illegal. Sure, anal sex is nasty, WHO GIVES A FUCK?! . Why should the goverment give a fuck about what people do in their bedrooms?

Just realised there was already a thread for crucifying homophobes, so i shortened this a little. Gay marriages (http://forums.wtf.com/showthread.php?t=111)

How stupid can you get? He's being sarcastic you moron :mad: :mfinger:. A dumb fuck like you with viruses isn't a good combination. Please die.

[yowatupdogg]

Know any french people? Didn't think so. Nique ta mere!

[Deez Nutz]

For all you christians out there, prove god exists. I dare you.

[GottaHurt]

Yea, I sure do. I took the QE II out of Cherbourg.Here's a concept lost on the French people, personal hygiene. Those are some nasty ass motherfuckers, they bathe once a week and then put the same clothes back on. Toothbrush, forgedda-bout-it, deodorant, none, womens razors, clueless.
Their "world renowned hauté cuisine" consists of pigeon, snails and goose liver, let me know how it turns out for you.They're rude, arrogant, lazy and ungrateful, just to name a few of their better qualities.Hell, I could write a book on why the French suck, but no one would buy it, because the world already knows it.

Jusqu'à la fois prochaine, prenez-le dans le visage
(Until next time, take it in the face)

And on the 8th day, God created morons.

Just cause I'd like to hear this, prove he doesn't.

[Deez Nutz]

Just cause I'd like to hear this, prove he doesn't.
I'm agnostic, so I don't think that he doesn't exist. He might, and he might not. There is no proof that he exists, and there is no proof that he doesn't exist. There's a long ass topic about it on another board I go to: http://www.digitalizedzone.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1282
My name on there is "nova"

[Skorch]

Awwwww, I don't want to have to go somewhere else and do a lot of reading. Can't you summarize it for me?

[Deez Nutz]

Um, no. Use your brain and READ.

[The_DEA]

the french are next in line for genicide (how ever its spelled)

[Skorch]

Um, no. Use your brain and READ.
Okay, clearly my sarcasm was a bit too subtle. My point of asking you to summarize is for the sake of keeping the debate here linear and contained, rather than trying to continue a parrallel debate that is taking place on a completely different site with different people. If I want to say anything about any of their statements, people here don't know what I'm talking about (unless they've been over there and read the entire thread as well), and people over there don't have a chance to respond to what I say over here. So, if there are any points from that discussion you feel are worth repeating then I think it would be better to do so, because I am not going to respond to an entire 10 page thread at once, especially if that is a discussion that is still going on.

The topic is pretty much dead now. Whatever can possibly be discussed about religion has been discussed in that topic.

[Skorch]

Oh well that's no fun. Too bad I guess, if there's not much more to be said. Well it's a good thing we got that whole religion debate cleared up though, that whole issue seems to have been bugging people.
