Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: What! You too? I thought I was the only one. -C.S. Lewis

"The significant problems we have cannot be solved at the same level of thinking with which we created them."
"We used to think that if we knew one, we knew two, because one and one are two. We are finding that we must learn a great deal more about 'and.'"
"I believe it is an established maxim in morals that he who makes an assertion without knowing whether it is true or false is guilty of falsehood, and the accidental truth of the assertion does not justify or excuse him."
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it."
"The difficulty lies not so much in developing new ideas as in escaping from old ones."
"One man with courage makes a majority."
"A stupid man's report of what a clever man says can never be accurate, because he unconsciously translates what he hears into something he can understand."
"When I tell any truth it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those who do."
"Judge of a man by his questions rather than by his answers."
"But what is strength without a double share of wisdom?"
"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are."
"The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men."
"How much easier it is to be critical than to be correct."
"What we hope ever to do with ease we must first learn to do with diligence."
"It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them!"
I bet the religous left fails to heed those, too.
You're right. I'me sure they do. Not the point though, because the reason for this list is to undercut the logic behind right-wingers hate-speech towards gays. This is all about consistency. They say they are just following the Bible. Well, to those people I say Follow the Bible. No more Red Lobster for you.
The left, of course, has yet to use the Bible as an excuse for hate speech so their ignoring these things doesn't really constitute any inconsistency.
They tend to dodge the issue by saying the Old Testament laws were made obsolete when Jesus came on the scene. Of course, these are the same people saying those Old Testament commandments should be on display in our publicly-funded schools and courthouses. I don't know what makes them think the New Testament isn't just as obsolete, though.... good post!
Whoa. Check out the percent of right wing hate mongers in these states.
I wonder what the percentages are in the other 33 states?
Point taken, Hood. Yes, blue states enacted gay marriage bans. But as in all things, it really depends on how you ask the question. The amendment referenda were usually on defining marriage between a man and a woman. Sounds relatively harmless to me I guess. But the same guy who voted yes to the amendment might balk if you asked him, "do you want to prevent gays from ever getting married having power of attorney or visiting each other in the hospital etc."
I love Leviticus, all the best bible madness can be found there...
Leviticxus 15:16:18 - If a man lies with a woman and has an emission of semen, both of them shall bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
BTW, I bet the religious right is working on getting rid of divorce ;)
Horatio,
You really should expand on your third bullet. Leviticus 11:8 also forbids the touching of the skin of these cloved animals, ergo no pigskin, ergo no football!
Good post!
Yes, it is funny. Gotta follow the good book religiously, but they just take the needed passages and bypass their own sins, eh?
"Yes, it is funny. Gotta follow the good book religiously, but they just take the needed passages and bypass their own sins, eh?"
Rather, the book offers something for every occasion. As in, if you are an authority, and you want to do "x", then chances are the good book has a passage for you to help you mobilize the ignorant masses for your own purposes with some simple hate filled passage...
these comments are not fair: most christians are good citizens and know not such passages as these, as they largely follow the new testament.
you are letting your opinion be swayed by a small, un-chirstlike minority. what, do you think all muslims are terrorists too?
Now the Spirit expressly says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrine of demons . . . commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. (1 Timothy 4:1, 3-5)
i do not care how you, as skeptics, will interpret this, but this definatively allows christians to eat any and all foods. it seems you yourselves are only looking at the scriptures you want to read.
Good dispatch and this enter helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you on your information.
Brim over I assent to but I think the collection should have more info then it has.
hello, good morning to all, I read his blog yesterday, comparing information, and reach the conclusion, that their information is very professional, I would love to have your blog update about TOP 5 BIBLE PASSAGES IGNORED BY THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT. Thanks for creating and sharing this information.!
Gordon is the best?!
