You ever talk evangelical about sin , ill informed morons their response just hate

And then you bring up
Exodus 21 - 22-25
Deuterommney 28 -18-53
2nd kings 8-12 seems like there was a lot of abortion in Old Testament.
So then you ask them well you bring up abortion do you eat bacon Leviticus 11 cud eaters hooves or some fish. So I pin them down in asking as they run their gums and they just talk weak stupid.

And my thoughts on southern Baptist they use religion to marginalize and oppress they bastardized Christianity to fit their narrative. I truly try live by Matthew 25 I’m a father a husband I am far from perfect I suffer from alcoholism I eat medicine for my booze addiction.

And yet with these Christian republicans let’s fuck the poor and the sick I don’t get these perverts. And in listening to them saying we as a nation our founding fathers proclaimed America as a Christian nation. I’m like no our founding fathers said we were a secular country and our founding fathers were so far from Christianity.

Perhaps they were more our founding fathers deist in thoughts or beliefs. Then I had to explain deist to them and no problem as I try and educate all. America is not the Jim baker evangelical or the 700 club pat Robertson tv show. And today the evangelicals are more inline with taliban in oppression as Americans talibangelist mike pence Jerry Falwell junior. I don’t get how you can be so fucked up in head in your thinking is what I tell them.

Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them:

When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord — Leviticus 1: 9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21: 7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness — Leviticus 15:19-24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

Leviticus 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination — Leviticus 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

Leviticus 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Leviticus 19:27. How should they die?

I know from Leviticus 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

My uncle has a farm. He violates Leviticus 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? — Leviticus 24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Leviticus 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

Your devoted fan,

Jim

Further, any far-right religious or political group is correctly identified as a Cult. So what
we're left with is Christo-Fascist Cultists that can't do anything but drink the kool-aid. The
best thing we can do with them is lock them up.

Note: Far-right Buddhists and Moslems like the Taliban and ISIS are also Fascists and
they all need locking up as well.
