It is easy to tell when Brabrie is flustered, he starts umming. :chuckle:

HAVE YOU EVER EATEN SHELLFISH?
Kdall asks Stipe again:
Stipe is a cafeteria Christian. He only follows the part of God's word that he likes.
As you see, he hates the rest of it.

What proves science wrong in those cases? Better science.
To be fair, most Christians do the exact same thing.

My question is what did Jesus do that suddenly made heinous sins like eating shellfish and wearing cotton blends ok? Why were they bad in the first place, and what did Jesus do to make them not bad any longer?
Genesis says God gave us all animals to eat, and the next book outlaws some of them, and then several books later they are ok again. :doh:
The understanding I have is that for a very long time, eating pork and shellfish was riskier than eating other types of meat. Pigs are prone to parasites, like the tapeworm Taenia solium, and can transfer them and their diseases directly to people due to genetic similarities. Shellfish could've caused mercury poisoning if too much was consumed. Perhaps when the laws were first instituted, methods of food preparation weren't as developed as they were 2000 years later in Jesus' time, and therefore the food laws became less important to follow for health purposes
Nope. Reality, remember? The Bible teaches that homosexuality is a crime and a sin, punishable by death.
And it teaches that eating shellfish is a sin. Calls it an abomination just as it does with homosexuality.

Please back up that statement by showing where the Bible says that anyone that eats shrimp is to be put to death and that his blood is on his own head.

Well, the Bible actually states that shellfish is to be abominable to the children of Israel, it doesn't say eating shellfish is an abomination.

What does the Bible say the penalty is for eating shellfish or wearing cotton blends?
Post the verses, please.
A limited abomination, so to speak.:yawn:
Homosexuality is an offense unto God, whereas shellfish were to be unclean to Israel.
And there are two different words used to describe each that are translated as "abomination."
It says repeatedly that it's a sin and abomination, just as homosexuality was listed as an abomination. Do you really need me to post a verse saying that?
Those are the same people to which it was said that homosexuality was an abomination

I stopped humoring the little pipsqueak once I realized he was TOL's pet troll. People gotta learn that for themselves, I guess.:cigar:
You have not supported enforcement of God's law (1 Ti 1:8-10, Ac 5:29) :scripto: and now you want a revolution. :idunno: Ex 20:14, Lev. 20:10–12
