In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a US man, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: 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 other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are 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? 2. 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? 3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of Menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense. 4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them? 5. 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, or should I ask the police to do it? 6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination, Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination? 7. Lev. 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? 8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die? 9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? 10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.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? Lev.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? (Lev. 20:14) I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I'm confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging. Your adoring fan. James M. Kauffman, Ed.D. Professor Emeritus, Dept. Of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education University of Virginia PS (It would be a damn shame if we couldn't own a Canadian) Poster Comment: I like the part about Canadians best of all.

Oh, God, I'm doomed... Today, I rode my bicycle into work...wearing spandex while naughty images of Clive Owen danced in my head. Then, I changed into clothes that included rayon, cotton, and, well, a certain underwire garment that will remain unnamed. The Internet connection was running so slowly that I blasphemed. Please let me know the location of where I should go to be stoned (you know, the kind of stoning with rocks)? Still, those images of Clive will make it all worthwhile.
I was impressed with Owens'acting in King Arthur,
I don't choose my lustful wanderings willy-nilly (LOL).
Me too, Sometimes being attacked by Cougars can have a happy ending : )
LOL...you made my "virtual" night.
LOL...you made my "virtual" night. : ) I get dinner at a house in these dreams Not the metro sexual tofu like at restaurants....real food, No husbands burst into the house at anytime in the dream either : )
Not the metro sexual tofu like at restaurants....real food, No husbands burst into the house at anytime in the dream either : ) Sadly, even the most elegantly prepared and savored dishes leave scraps behind… and, somehow, they become tawdry remnants. And the lover who most ardently helped you undress beforehand seems disinterested in helping you restore your garments afterward. Such is the nature of impulsive acts...but as I'm on my way out of Dodge, I'll give you a call.
I'm dreaming of warm places by the sea, I do not mind learning Greek,....or going to get fresh food at the market each day by scooter from a white plaster house overlooking the Aegean.
If you saw ... the gun first --- You're gay.

while naughty images of Clive Owen danced in my head.
The script and run of the movie lended to a more realistic possibility of a King Arthur.
Owens seems to bring out other actors character's allongside his which comes off as natural,
and not so force/driven as in other movies were characters like that would seldomly meet in the real world.
