gay marriage in the US

[SugarBoxing]

You need to go by the New testament now you are saved, not the old. You are judging the gays from the old testaments writings. Those days are past those laws are no more.
The New testament is (the word of God)that saved you,so stick with what Luke has written there and cease your judgments, In Jesus name!

You cannot "go by" the NT, Jesus is the NT, New Covenant, that was the whole point of it.

God "fired" or "disqualified" the best of the best, the Top Gun, to qualify us!
Why is it so hard for you to understand?

Have you ever eaten shellfish or worn clothes made from more than one type of fibre?

Is this what you call shellfish?

What do you mean by clothes with more than one fiber, post pic

We have a guy in the streets of Melbourne here who is so taken with some old testament writings that he only wears a hessian sack with holes in it and doesnt wash, walks around in bear feet too.
Amazing what in ground beliefs some unfortunate individuals get out of biblical writings.

Maybe the fiber clothes refers to some gay terminology, I guess?

the shellfish - no idea, honestly, what it means at subliminal level

Both a sin to consume shellfish and wear mixed cloth is his point.

It is from exactly the same the book you got your judgment from over homosexuals.

Who'd have guessed?

I suppose you would have had to study it to know.

It is interesting and quite revealing to know why also. This is during the times of Diaspora, and makes up what are known as the laws of separation. Obviously for a people dispersed with no land to keep it's people, language and culture together, these laws were motivated from a desire to keep people distinct an separate. In the following chapter of Leviticus you will find the command for a man not to cut the hair on the corners and sides of his face. This was again to keep that identity separate and alive so as not to be mistaken for a clean shaven Egyptian back then and a Roman later on. It is why Orthodox Jews still maintain side locks (peyos).

This sense of separateness can also be seen in Isreal's concept of holiness. This is not a sense of holiness that emerges from fear of displeasing a punishing deity, it is one derived from the Justice that deities own holiness personifies. This is where democracy comes from. A concern for the people not the object of devotion.

First to understand this, a misunderstanding needs to be erased. Israel, the Hebrew prophets and Judaism are not the same thing.

You two take this stuff far too seriously. I do not share the views of NV and neither do I share the faith of Walrus, but I appreciate the humour and character of them both. In the past I would get disturbed by religious based posts, but found that my views were likewise intolerant of others. You have to chill out and respect that different people are coming from a different place. If faith helps Walrus in life, then all power to the man. If faith is NV's way of handling a frankly irrational world, then the same to him. If someone wants to judge then that is up to them. Does it reflect on them? Of course it does, but that is their call to make. In some way or another we are always judging others. Andre likes to judge the Chinese, Greenbeanz likes to judge music taste, I like to judge Tony Blair.

With all due respect Miles, I don't really know what your point is ? I am not angry, my posts are not aggressive and neither are Andre's. So what do you mean by chill out ? Are we all just supposed to stop debating and expressing different opinions now ? I can of course see the humour in both posters, though Walrus sometimes has a sense of humour bypass when reading other people's posts.

@Gandalf, thanks for sticking up for me, it's fine nonetheless, I'm used to Christianity being attacked and criticized, it happens quite often in the US media. As long as People aren't saying anything about Islam, Christianity is the accepted prejudice.
