New International Version (NIV)
The Fulfillment of the Law
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

I find that Christians as a group our unusually prone to shamelessly making shit up when they don't have an answer.
This may be due to their inferior education, intelligence, their greater poverty, and an over-representation of schizotypal personality traits among them.
Regardless, it's frustrating, so I try to avoid such discussions, as when I do have them, I usually get frustrated and end up saying something like, "Go blow Jesus out your ass."
i know it is frustrating but when your family is christian and decide to pop there little crazy religous comment in when things happen good or bad it irritates the mess out of me. like "oh you got your morals from the bible and you taught me my morals from the bible when you yourself haven`t read the damn thing? hm i never knew things like slavery and rape were moral. well i`ll be damned"
