In the Old Testament the Mosaic Law specifies no less than thirtysix capital offenses calling for execution by stoning, burning, decapitation, or strangulation. Included in the list are idolatry, magic, blasphemy, violation of the sabbath, murder, adultery, bestiality, pederasty, and incest.Color me cynical, but the omission of same-sex sodomy from a list of OT capital offenses is too PC for my taste.
You know, I was wondering why he omitted that too!
Oh for heaven's sake!! You ARE cynical!
Isn't same-sex sodomy a little redundant? As for me, pederasty will do just as well.
I think you are a little too cynical. Cardinal Dulles is a man of true grit. He is the last one that we have to worry about.
