It sounds really bad for you, because if I'm right, you and almost every other Christian alive stands just the tiniest step above me in the eyes of God. It means nothing to me, because if I'm wrong about God, I would imagine that my level of adherence to OT law would strike him as rather beside the point, wouldn't you agree?
I don't think Christ would agree. I guess you over looked the passages i left Where Christ tells us on 4 seperate occasions, That the Least shall be greatest, that the first shall become last???
That is why I asked you to provide the material why you thought the passage you were harping on was a bad thing? Because it appears your understanding 'does not follow' What Christ has said 4 other times durning His ministry.
Nor do you acknoweledge the bit I left you that points out that Not all can live live in the Freedom the atonement of Christ affords. For people like you, who feel they must goto church on saturdays and still sacerfice goats,(and on and on) then know you are bound to do so... That is Until your ready to read the rest of the bible. (which if you have a copy, and or have been made aware of you will be responsiable for.)

So... cool. Divine command based on nothing as tangible as real, demonstrable harm, but instead on the baseless bigotry of a sky fairy... yep, that's worth following.
I'm glad you think your god is just as reprehensible as I do, Drich.
One man's dictator is another Loving Father. Not all are to love the Lord. That is why we have been given this life, To make that desision. I do not concern myself with what you decide, just that you have all the information to make an educated desision.
