I'm very aware that I'm picking and choosing. It would be impossible to take literally everything of the bible. He simply stated that the bible didn't say that when in fact it does. I didn't say it didn't say the opposite as well. Personally I feel the verses you quoted were talking about family structure. Mine were more in the "rules section" of the Bible.
I'm far too tired to banter anymore tonight though

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
