btw, Xcaliber, would you like to go through all the references of "toebah" in the Bible and see it is indeed used to convey ritual sins? However, I'm sure, you'll be just like N2 and try to argue a scripture about a sacrifice doesn't have anything to do with rituals. (2 hrs ago | post #663)

Dude you crack me up with your circular logic. You can huff and puff all you want thinking you're making any real sense here but it's unreal someone who wants to prove to me "toebah" isn't about idolatry by pointing out another scripture reference which specifically says "toebah" has to do with idolatry thinks they're making a sane argument. So your whole theory is based upon "toebah" being mentioned again at the very end of Leviticus 18. You still have yet to explain to me why 18:22 is the ONLY specific sin that comes attached with "toebah" . If Leviticus 18 really wanted to lump all those sins as ritual offenses then why did it specifically point out 18:22 and ONLY 18:22 as being "toebah" ? You're still also avoiding discussing if 18:22 was a moral sin then the Hebrew word would have been "zimmah" . If this is the best you can do with your "logic" then does anyone really have to wonder why the world is quickly thinking homophobes are the true abominations unto God. You're a sad closet case who still can't muster enough courage to figure out how homosexuality could so easily get to the core of him to unnerve him. (2 hrs ago | post #662)

Sorry, N2, but you do not get to decide who can and who can not be a Christian. Hate to break the news to you but God never appointed you judge and jury over His people. (2 hrs ago | post #2111)

That's the biggest bunch of bull ever. I've heard you call homosexuality an "abomination " endless times. (2 hrs ago | post #2109)

btw, Romans is about Pagan idol worship. It's not my fault you refuse to see how the Pagans breaking the first two commandments is this issue here. It's akin to telling us all heterosexual sex is a crime since prostitution is a crime. (4 hrs ago | post #2094)

Both Wayne and N2 are old men with one foot in the grave and the world will be a much better place once their coffins are finally shut for good. You should have seen the picture of N2 I found. He claims to be only 50-something but my parents who are in their 70's look 10 years younger. They're both bitter old men who can't quite figure out why homosexuality can so easily get to their core.

Um, you just love to avoid the obvious. Female temple prostitution involving heterosexual sex is condemned in the Bible. (4 hrs ago | post #2091)

Too funny. I guess Boswell teaching at one of the best universities in the world doesn't make him a real scholar. (4 hrs ago | post #2089)

Eating pork and shellfish, cutting your beard, wearing polyester, getting divorced and having tattoos are also 'abominations' but we've never heard you tell a clean shaven man he must repent of his abomination or he's going to hell. It must be so nice for you to be able to pick and choose which scripture to follow. (4 hrs ago | post #2087)

The first chapter of Romans is about Pagan idol worship. (4 hrs ago | post #2080)

Yes and male temple prostitution was part of their rituals. Why aren't you condemning all of heterosexual sex since female temple prostitution is also condemned in the Bible? (4 hrs ago | post #2078)

Bush was elected by "Christians " and is going down in history as the worst US President ever. He killed endless people for oil yet you "Christians " don't have a problem with him but have a problem with a president who's trying to ensure all of America has healthcare. (4 hrs ago | post #2076)

Well then, as a Christian, why do you always quote Leviticus to condemn gay Christians? (4 hrs ago | post #2075)

No shite but when I said 'zimmah' was translated to 'lewdness' you called it my opinion. (6 hrs ago | post #660)
