|    Dear President Bush,    |

      From: illume1@verizon.net              Dear President Bush,              Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have       learned a great deal from you and understand why you would propose and       support a constitutional amendment banning same sex marriage. As you said       "in the eyes of God marriage is based between a man a woman." I 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 Canadians?              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 uncleanness - 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 am confident you can help.              Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
