Actually I am just going by memory. But that being said, if you are to take literally word for word what the bible says, as you are. Then I assume you deserve to be stoned a few times, maybe your wife or your children also. Whens the last time you ate pork? Catfish? Slept in the same room as a woman while she was on her period? Masturbated? Had a cheeseburger? Skipped a day of work to have fun? Gossiped?

I could go on and on, if you would have me stick to orthodoxy on creation, then its only fair to be orthodox on the rest and to demand that of you, since you demand of me the same.

Another argument from ignorance it would seem. The levitical laws are old covenant and have no effect in Christianity other than as a guide in showing God's mind on what is sin. Christ's act took judgement over a man's life out of the hands of men and put it back in the hands of God. So, you really are just writhing about in it with no sense of what you are saying, aren't you.

Creation isn't a levitical law and has nothing whatever to do with the levitical law. Just as you have no earthly clue what it is you're talking about because by admition, you're going from 'memory.' Yeah, right. That's what makes you have no concept of what is actually said in Genesis and no clue what the levitical laws were about, much less that they have no bearing on Genesis 1. We aren't arguing about Orthodoxy here. You're trying to change the meaning of words that are defined within the text so that they cannot be mistaken. And when it blows up in your face, you copout to nonsense about stoning people to death as if it has any relevance. Before you go trying to tell people what Genesis says, you might read it.. And not just to see the words - really read it for understanding of what it ACTUALLY SAYS. How you could carry on about the subject for 3 days and have no earthly clue and then want to bug out as if you were tired of dealing with a subject you haven't actually dealt with is as mysterious as a paraconformity. It's uncomfortable when one is defrocked of pretense - isn't it.
