eat shrimp? it says in leviticus it says it is a sin, it also says we can own slaves, and exudus state we should kill our neighbor if they work on the sabbath, Why is it no one attacks shrimp eater the way they protest gays?

I'm having a hard time understanding what is acceptable and what isn't.

I remember being told leviticus was jewish laws. if so let the jews worry about who's gay and who's not.

Troll. This has been asked about three hundred times. Any basic Christian apologetics site would explain this. ChristianAnswers.net, Christian Apologetics & Reseach Ministry, Stand to Reason, Christian Courier.

I thought about responding in kind, i.e. saying something senseless but I just decided to get in the lotus position and chant a mantra. Ohmmmmm. Ohmmmmm. Oh yes, that is better.

Keep reading...when you finish reading the Bible it will all be quite clear.

Considering that scientific studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of meditation (and similar, prayerlike states) on both physical and mental well being, that was a bit rubbish, really

Oh yes, I agree so much. I was just merely taking the advice of a buddhist in his well thought out post and disregarding the silliness of Christianity and seeking higher enlightenment. Now that I have my chakras in alignment and my aura is all fluffy, I am ready to seek out another lifecycle. I am hoping to come back as a brook trout. Ohhhhhhhm. Ohhhhhhhm.

Because about 2000 years ago the eternal and unchanging god of the Christians…er…changed his mind about all these rules he made up… except the rule about homosexuality…Most Christians seem to insist that all the other rules of Leviticus are out in the garbage bin ... except that particular one.

Why that one is still OK but the others can be safely ignored by modern Christians is a mystery.

I asked a question, I did not give advice. And were I to recommend Buddhism, I would recommend Zen and not Tantric Buddhism.

Shalom,

Eating Kosher food (i.e. not pork or shellfish) is a law for the Israelites to follow. The laws of sexuality are for everyone to follow.
