It was meant to be taken literally.  And not everyone cherry picks.

Exactly Dove.



I do agree with RW, I dislike religion too which is all man made..



Christianity is a relationship with a living God through his Son Jesus Christ.

Christianity is a man made religious institution with churches and pastors and the whole nine.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!



You really think something written thousands upon thousands of years ago is contextually accurate in our day and age?



And yes, EVERYONE cherry picks.

 Yes. I absolutely do. And a lot of people do. And it's not blind either, there is a good deal of evidence supporting it.

No its not. That's catholism.

You must not be as familiar with the Bible as you like to think you are.

I know the difference between Catholicism and Christianity.  I was a member of a Christian youth group in high school and still know many Christians, including one of my favourite Aunts.  They go to church.

Honey I have several translations, a Torah in Hebrew and I am a student of theology.  I know the Bible. I actually TRIED to find errors and inconsistancies, still havent. I just spent the last 15 months living in a Christian mission doing nothing BUT diving into it.

And I went to a Christian school most of my life. I know what I'm talking about.

Example: Deuturonomy 22:28-29.



Please explain for the class how you support this passage literally in our day and age.

Hey Joe (aka frank)

God gave you a head full of hair of which you are very proud.  But remember  this part of the Bible:

Proverbs 16:18King James Version (KJV)Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Bob....tell ya truth, I don' know if yer life is one of livin' in sin.I don' know if the Bible is the truth or that of Christianity is right.I'm an agnostic secularist myself. I don't read the Bible or go to Church enough that I can truly call myself a practising Christian. All I'm sayin' is that according to their book, homosexuality doesn't have a place in their religion.Just accept that fact, move on and find a new religion if you don't like it cuz this whole biz of people like yerself bringin' in rainbow colored garbs inta Church isn't  part of their faith. It certainly isn't part of Christianity. Letting people in the Church know which guy ya sodomized last night runs contrary to what's written in Bible, and who Jesus was and what he stood for. According to the Bible, Jesus never made out with a woman or sodomized anyone because he's supposed to rerpresent resistence to temptation and the pleasures of the flesh. So the idea of bringing homosexuality right into a Church is the equivalent of a heterosexual guy stapling an escort's panties to the wall of one he made out with last night. It jes'don' belong there. Whether homo or heterosexual, how and whom they get laid with shouldn't be advertised to the rest of the Flock because it is a private matter between your partner and what you confess/say to yer God. The idea of advertizing ones sexuality in a holy place of a religion which doesn't  Encourage and should even prohibit it is incongruous to the principles of that faith and undermines its reason for being.

If a family walks in with a couple of kids, they are "advertising" their sexuality.

Sorry not seeing it Fash.  I went to churchy school too.  I studied the bible for many many years.  Dove has yet to figure out it is not literal but full of parables.
