Those who take the Bible literally rather than symbolically...get ready to be stoned, and not the good kind of stoned. All who have not followed Jewish laws according to the literal interpretation, which is most of us I presume, should be stoned to death for one damn thing or another.

Of course its a symbolic text, taught to the people of the day, using language of the day. Then interpreted and reinterpreted not by God but by men who picked and chose what to put in it and what to leave out. Of course they left out all that contradicts what they believe. Of course we need clarification of the Bible. Yet does the Bible serve us and offer us glimpses of Gods love. Peace, MH
