Light hearted look at the old testament.
Hi Razor, me again. Isn't christianity supposed to be personal?
I think your god must be watching, I've just been talking about the Old Testament. (Joke, no offense meant)
I almost completely agree with your extremely generalistic reply. You would think that God (I'm going to be polite and put the capital letters in this time) would evolve, much as we have, and as mankind develops His guidance would become less strict. That Leviticus was a one wasn't he.
However, Lulu raises the point, quite justly, that many of your more orthodox brethren do seem to like to quote archaic passages to justify holding archaic viewpoints. Quite often while holding banners.
You have already stated your belief in an ever changing God and yet you claim to know what He thinks by stating that "He still despises the act of homosexuality"? And that wasn't an attack on you either, all modern Christians seem to know the mind of God. That used to be the Pope's job but apparently even 'God's emmisary on Earth' has to accept a job share these days.
Fifty years ago white Christians didn't want to pray with black Christians. Thankfully sense prevails eventually.
