As if we needed another reason to impeach modern "scholarship" as blatant propaganda.

So you don’t like the word of God? You edit and rewrite. That’s what’s going on here.

The left likes to do this. For example, they take the Bible verse which says “Blessed are the peacemakers” and use this to criticize the American military. They take admonitions to help the poor, to mean that we need socialism to help the poor among us with elaborate government programs.

Dr. Dershowitz claims that, “Before Leviticus was composed, outright prohibitions against homosexual sex — whether between men or women — were practically unheard-of in the ancient world.”

I wouldn't be surprised if this was right, but that's probably the point of creating a separate identity for the Jewish people; to reject what their captors and those around them had considered normal. To hold themselves to higher standards.

The Bible is not a piece of bestselling fad writing to be revised by people following the current fashion like a diet book that goes out of style.

You shall not add anything to what I command you,or take anything away from it, but keep the Commandments of the Lord thy God that I enjoin upon you.
Deuternomy 4:2

We need a photo to headline each gay agenda article like the photo of Goebbels that OldEconomyBuyer posts for globull warming stories.

Who could that be? Harvey Milk? Gavin Newsome?

Perverts have been trying to justify their particular perversions since the dawn of time!

Revelation 22

18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

The mainstream protestant churches have openly embraced gay and abortion, leaving behind all that has always been Christian.

They don’t like what it says in the Gospels, so they just ignore what they don’t like and create for themselves a God in their image.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Didn’t they try this a few years back with the “queen james bible”?

God does allow man to deceive himself. This kind of attempt is laughable, coming from a “scholar”, but it shows the grip and power deception can have.

Evil people will always give you (what they think is) a good reason they should be able to do anything they want.

It’s up to reasoned good people to object.

[ASOC]

Should I take it that the Dr. Dershowitz is himself gay? This kind of effort doesn’t doesn’t come out of thin air...

Simply put - the man is damned, and by his own words.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Didn’t Moses write Leviticus?

And I’m also wondering when things will be completely turned around so that critics of homosexuality will be the ones put to death. (No, I don’t support putting homos to death; Christ has already paid the penalty for all our sins.)

Gay/Lesbian sex is an ABOMINATION to the Lord. PERIOD! God says so many times in His Word, the bible. The only thing that can justify it are LIES, because it cannot be justified.

A prime example of what happens when people mutilate Sacred Scripture for their own purposes:

More than just Leviticus would need to be rewritten in their own image to make that kind of pokie okie dokie.

For example, Romans 1:27: “Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.”

That sounds like the gay 1980s until now and I don’t think rewriting Leviticus is gonna fix it.

[Othniel]

A cursory examination of ancient Egyptian society and theology would reveal all manner of loose sexuality including: Pharaohs marrying and having children by their daughters and sisters, festivals involving sex and their pantheon of deities, and a tolerance for homosexual sex. The Law given by God had things that pointed specifically to what the Jews had come out of. Each of the plagues was aimed at a specific god of Egypt, and it making the jump from "our God smacked down these gods" to "so here's what you need to do as a result of this...." isn't such a great leap. The "scholar" who is fighting for a revision of the Law is a fool.
