Find lots of other great ones here:Exodus 35:2. Six days shall work be done , but on the seventh day, there shall be to you an holy day , a Sabbath of rest to the Lord: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.
Numbers 15:32-6. A man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath so the Lord told Moses that he must die and be stoned to death outside the camp. So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death as the Lord commanded Moses.
I would have loved to have seen that. I've asked Christians who have been up in my face about the Bible if they greet each other at church with a "Holy kiss" like Paul instructs........the looks on their faces are priceless.......I was living in California prior to the vote on Prop 8. The Christians were campaigning pretty heavily. On more than one occasion I was approached by them, asking me to vote against gay marriage. I told them I would support their bill to ban gay marriage, if they would support my bill to re-legalize slavery. At this point they were shocked. While they stood there, mouths opened in confusion and offense, I asked them why they supported banning gay marriage. I would always get "well its in the Bible" or some answer that I would always be able to argue them to admitting that gay marriage is wrong because the bible says so. At which point, I would politely inform them that according to the bible, owning slaves is OK too. Oh man the looks I got at this point in the conversations were priceless.
Deuteronomy 22:11 said:Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woolen and linen together.
I don't know any divers that wear wool while diving...might be just me though...Check their clothing labels:
I used to have a Uni dry suit that had a wool liner.I don't know any divers that wear wool while diving...might be just me though...
Yeah a wet suit in Lake superior, in February.Ah...dry suits... the body condoms of aquatics.
whatever suit...I can still feel my balls sucking up to my rib cage just thinking about that...Yeah a wet suit in Lake superior, in February.

I WAS vilifying the correct group, don't put words into my mouth. Yes, I'm aware of how much backing there was by the mormon church. However, the incidents I described were with Christians, not Mormons. They introduced themselves as such (it was some Catholic group, don't recall their exact name).Fixed
The Mormon church pumped huge amounts of money into the prop 8 campaign. I wish someone would explain to me how these nut jobs are still tax exempt.
Not that the "Christians" against prop 8 are any better. I just think its important to vilify the correct group.
Fair enough.I WAS vilifying the correct group, don't put words into my mouth. Yes, I'm aware of how much backing there was by the mormon church. However, the incidents I described were with Christians, not Mormons. They introduced themselves as such (it was some Catholic group, don't recall their exact name).
But the devil is in the details!Fair enough.
Not that there is much of a difference really. I nut job by any other name, is still a nut job

Depends on who you ask.Mormons are Christians.
But not all Christians are Mormons. Do we need to do the "A nickel is a coin but a coin isn't necessarily a nickel" exercise again?Mormons are Christians.
Because that's a perfect example.But not all Christians are Mormons. Do we need to do the "A nickel is a coin but a coin isn't necessarily a nickel" exercise again?
The only christians that will agree that mormons are christian are other factions of mormons. BS=Mormon?Depends on who you ask.
Other Jesus cults don't agree...
Yeah, Im a f*cking mormon.The only christians that will agree that mormons are christian are other factions of mormons. BS=Mormon?
Whenever there are two "of"s in a name of anything...it's probably going to be wonky.Because that's a perfect example.
Quit trying to get back at me for losing that last argument so badly.
There are all kinds of brands of christians, All christians aren't methodists, all christians aren't baptists, all christians aren't mormons. It's just another crazy denomination.

A bit touchy are we?Because that's a perfect example.

quirkierSo are the mormons any querkier (how do I spell that?) than the pentacostals down here who speak in tongues and handle snakes? I dunno.
Pentacostals are witch doctors? Do they throw chicken bones too?
There's only a small % of pentecostals that do the whole "taking up serpents" stupidity. And yes mormons are quirkier than those retards.quirkier
Pentacostals are witch doctors? Do they throw chicken bones too?
They aren't considered "orthodox" (note the lower case "O"), but then who's making the definition of what orthodox is or isn't? I'm sure in alot of Christian circles I'm not orthodox (more like heretic ).Depends on who you ask.
Other Jesus cults don't agree...
Yeah I'd say the concept that when you die you get to be a God and get to populate your own planet, and have the ability to call or not to call your wife from the grave depending on if she was a good wife in this life, beats the toothless Appaliacians with their snakes........LOL.There's only a small % of pentecostals that do the whole "taking up serpents" stupidity.

How is that any crazier than believing in invisible sky nannies, talking serpents, noahs ark, jonah and the fish, etc.?Yeah I'd say the concept that when you die you get to be a God and get to populate your own planet, and have the ability to call or not to call your wife from the grave depending on if she was a good wife in this life, beats the toothless Appaliacians with their snakes........LOL.
Older is better? Considered Zoroastrianism?I never said it was crazier (faith is faith come on)...........my craziness and my Jewish friends craziness is just a whole lot older.........LOL. I tend to drift towards interests that have a significant historical aspect to them...........anywho..........
This argument is only partly correct. Methodists, Baptists ETC. didn't have to have a third book dictated by angels to develop there own brand of crazy. The Mormons are, at best, only loosely associated with "Christianity."Because that's a perfect example.

You forgot Jewish Zombies. And your right, its not any crazier. It's why every day that goes by I'm a little more agnostic/atheist.How is that any crazier than believing in invisible sky nannies, talking serpents, noahs ark, jonah and the fish, etc.?
