[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 977982, member: 2189"] [URL="http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/05/30/kansas-pastor-calls-on-u-s-government-to-kill-lgbt-people/"][COLOR=#ff0000]Kansas pastor calls on US Gov't to Kill LGBT People[/COLOR][/URL] Dear Pastor Knapp, I see you take Leviticus 20:13 as literal and thus call on the gov't to execute people who violate this command. To be consistent, you would also have to take the rest of Leviticus 20 as literal and call for those commands to be followed as well. For example, consider the following verses in the same chapter as verse 13 of which you decree, Note to Pastor Knapp: The hebrew word for curses is [B]קָלַל[/B] and pronounced kaw-wal which means to dishonor, treat lightly, hold or show contempt towards, disobey. This command goes well beyond some kid slinging some 4 letter words at his/her parents. Pastor Knapp, I look forward to your calling out some of your own brethren, even fellow brethren of the pulpit for this one. So Pastor Knapp, I hope you aren't cherry picking the commands you like but instead are keeping them all to the letter as your god has thus commanded you. It would be foolish not to do so as in the context given by your god, verse 13 appears to have equal standing in importance as the other verses I quoted from the same source. Verse 22 instructs you and all believers to keep "All of Yahweh's decrees and follow them." Thus if verse 13 doth apply...... I look forward to hearing of your fine examples in following "All the Counsel of God!" And let's not forget brother Ted Haggard or a many catholic priest when you apply verse 13 is the court of god's justice. You servant in disbelief, mac The best part of christianity and the bible, like Islam and Judiasm, if those who practiced such faiths were ever actually forced to do so to the letter of it, well I'll just quote John Lennon, "Imagine No Religion" :laughing: Read those bibles people, all you have to do is to actually read those bibles.
