Getting Biblical....

Hey hey.

 

I had a few Bible quotes that I wanted to put down in blog form for something.  I was talking with a friend about taking the Bible literally and it reminded me of some old West Wing episodes.  I went and looked them up. 

 

Homosexuality is an abomination:

Leviticus 18:22 (King James Version)

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

It's okay to sell your daugther into slavery:

Exodus 21:7 (King James Version)

And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.

 

*******************

 

Working on the sabbath is punnishable by death:

Exodus 35:2 (King James Version)

Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.

Football is bad.  Bacon may taste good, but don't eat it!!!

 

Leviticus 11:7-8 (King James Version)

And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.

 

Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.

 

*******************

 

Don't mix your grapes!!!

 

Deuteronomy 22:9 (King James Version)

Thou shalt not sow thy vineyard with divers seeds: lest the fruit of thy seed which thou hast sown, and the fruit of thy vineyard, be defiled.

Those are a few that I liked. :)
