Everyone is bound by OT law, unless they find a righteousness/morality that exceeds the righteousness/morality one obtains by adhearing to the Law.

Meaning once you accept Christ's attonement then you are no longer bound to the Law to define your righteousness/Morality. In otherwords once you accept attonement the Law is no longer the standard in which you will be judged Righteous/moral before God.

Errr... so is everyone bound by the OT law, or not? You seem to be saying that everyone is until they accept the sacrifice of Christ, at which point they are not. Is that what you mean to say?

In essence yes. The law serves one purpose now. That is to identify sin for the purpose of repentance. Once one repents of sin, righteousness/'morality' is no longer determined by how you up hold the law.

Drich, so you're admitting that the creation account was written from a false perspective. How can you even take stock in it then?

just because theOT was not written how you originally believed it to be written does not mean it was written from a false perspective. Believe it or not you are not the standard in which God revolves Himself around. If your understanding of the Old Testament has failed you, then that does not mean the OT itself is in error. It simply means someone who has not spent anytime studying it failed to completely understand it.

If that account is wrong, by your admission, then what about the ark story which is a technical and logistical nightmare (not to mention physically impossible) or the Israelis' sojourn in the wilderness, just to name a couple? Do you take stock in those too, or are they the exceptions to intellectual honesty?

i've personally done the ark to death, but if you want to give it ago start another thread.
