11 Things The Bible Bans, But You Do Anyway - 11Points.com
There shouldn't be a thread because HEY! It's the Bible and everybody knows it's just like the Pope.

It always amuses me when a modern person brings up 5000 or so, y/o guides to living.
did you know that you also can't eat rabbit?
The reasons for these rules are never ever listed, just paraded out by god haters to mock people of faith.
Nobody would need to 'mock people of faith' if people of faith would stop making a mockery of the teachings of Christ.
Not true. The bible makes it very clear that the unsaved will mock people of the faith, and it has nothing to do with whether or not we *make a mockery* of the teachings of Christ. Look at II Tim 3. It is Satan who drives them..not those who are saved.
"12 In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
What did JESUS command? I know you know, and you're either going to deny it, or twist it. But what is the biggest commandment of Christ?
John 15:12 This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.
NOTE: "Love one another" means "love all people," not just "love other Christians."
This is what I've been 'harping on' ever since I got here. You call yourself a Christian? I should be able to see it from this chair. "By their fruits you shall know them."
