    I was reading the comments in the above article ^^^^

    I came across this one from Brian

    On her radio show, Dr. Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Schlesinger, written by a US man, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as quite informative:

    Dear Dr. Laura:

    Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them.

    1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own a Canadian?

    2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

    3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

    4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

    5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?

    6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination, Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?

    7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?

    8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev. 19:27. How should they die?

    9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

    10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

    I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I'm confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

    Your adoring fan,

    James M. Kauffman,
    Ed.D. Professor Emeritus,
    Dept. Of Curriculum, Instruction, and Special Education University of Virginia

    P.S. (It would be a damn shame if we couldn't own a Canadian.)

    There is even a famous West Wing episode that is based on that. (Episode 203, The Midterms).

    Thing is, it's not true. Here's something Dr. Laura posted on the issue:

    Setting My Record Straight About Gays
    There's also this:
    So she's against gay couples having children, but then against she's also against single women having children. I myself listened to her show off and on some years back and can attest that always treated her gay callers the same way she treated her straight callers. I found her "take no bullshit" style of dealing with people very refreshing.

    In the West Wing episode, President Bartlet says a lot of the same things to a "Dr. Jenna". At the site where I post about the West Wing the vast majority of fans love that episode and, accordingly, hate Dr. Laura. In the spirit of comity I have never expressed my opinions about her there.

    Whatever happened to Callysta? She was quite a provocative contributor here back in the day.

    Meanwhile, back in Kentucky:

    Could a $10 sale mean no more taxes for Noah’s Ark theme park?

    The Noah's Ark park is located in Williamstown. In order to cover the added costs of providing fire and emergency services to the park, it has levied a 50-cent charge on each admission.

    In response, the parent company, Answers In Genesis has transferred ownership of the land from the Ark Encounter, which is a for-profit entity, to a non-profit affiliate called Crosswater Canyon. AiG is arguing that as a religious, non-profit entity, the Ark Encounter is exempt from paying taxes.

    Such a scam.

    OMG ladies!!!! I was just thinking about her too!!! But it was three Fridays ago at high noon and there was a slight breeze outside. I was kneading some dough to make some homemade bread while enjoying a glass of Iced tea and lemonade, aka an Arnold Palmer, when all of a sudden a brisk wind blew off some leaves from a dying oak tree and the leaves landed on my bread! That's when I thought.... "I wonder what happened to Calysta? Oh well. lolz"

    Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo weird!

    It was completely appropriate to arrest this guy from the link. He was *videotaping* people in a changing room! His "gender" doesn't matter. His actions were illegal, or should be.

    Which means he was not transgender and probably would have done it dressed as a man.

    Maybe he's a trangender lesbian. Who knows? My point is I don't care how he or she identifies themselves, what they did is wrong. Their self-identity shouldn't matter.
