Drives me crazy that people pick and choose rules to follow. I say, Go ahead and kill the little brats at the same time you stick it to gay people.

My mom tried to use the no tattoo thing on me when I got a tattoo, but fortunately I was able to throw the mixed fabric thing at her. God, it makes me so mad when people do that!

I would like a Bible post about all the men who have names but their wives are referred to as their wives. Noah is Noah, but what's his wife's name? I know his sons' names, but what about their wives? Why do Ruth and Naomi have names, but a bunch of other women don't? You are my favorite Biblical scholar, and I have a feeling you can answer all my questions. Because God told me you can.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697966017575679500.post-9940615596490403082014-01-03T13:10:37.059-05:002014-01-03T13:10:37.059-05:00I don't know what EFB above is saying, but thi...I don't know what EFB above is saying, but this post is funnier than shit...even the second time around!joehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08520161706680568508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3697966017575679500.post-13831035571466475262014-01-03T12:50:25.784-05:002014-01-03T12:50:25.784-05:00In my limited understanding, there are two possibl...In my limited understanding, there are two possible contexts for Leviticus...it was either written for the Jewish diaspora in exile or for Jews as they returned to Isreal form exile. Most likely it was pieced together over both periods. In either case the intent is to protect or reiterate Jewish culture and identity in exile or as they reestablish self governance. <br /><br />As for cherry picking the Bible these laws are part of the Siniatic or Mosaic Covenant...which most Christians believe was replaced by a New Covenant through Jesus. Even denominations that use Leviticus to enforce dress codes don't sacrifice goats...so far as I know :). It's not even clear that Jews outside of these historic circumstances are held to it...that's well beyond my knowledge though.<br /><br />Just as an aside...Football's are not actually made out of pig skin.

Or is doubling down on a popular post a way to drive up overall site clicks? I'm not sure how this self promotion thing works, which is why I toil in obscurity.<br />I may have said this the last time, but damn, Leviticus is coo-coo bananas. There had to be some historical context for the weird mixed fabrics rule. And the fact that hyper-religious people don't follow half of these rules but selectively single out being gay as a "sin" is irrefutable proof that homophobia is b.s.
