There is a time and place for mockery. The OP seems to occupy the correct space/time coordinates to be deemed appropriate.
But I'm curious about what kind of rational discussion can be had about those verses. Seriously. They make little sense to me as ultimate truth. By all outward appearances they are the barbaric/ignorant utterings of an ancient tribal culture. In that context, the verses make sense. In the context of being part of the Holy and Eternal word of benevolent supreme being, the creator of the majestic universe and its natural laws, they seem incoherent.
So that's my rational assessment of the OP's contents. Care to explain what I'm not getting?
