    Well it's either that or they just enjoy humiliating themselves.

    One would think that if you adopt a belief system you would do the work to discover ALL the histories and truths behind it. Not close your eyes and mind and ignore everything that contradicts your dogma!

    Not really. Your basic fundy is ignorant, intellectually lazy and dishonest.

    The personality type needs certainties. And, the lower rungs of society
    do like to try to find some way that they can feel they are better than them high falootin'
    ivory tower people.

    What could be better than the power of inerrant readin', and being a bible believin', god fearin', heaven goin' fundy, for that?

    how could that be, YL? your god is omniscient, right? therefore he knew there would be a Christ, and Christianity. he knew all of this when he had his scribes jot down the law in the OT. the minute you try to claim the OT is limited to its time and place, you abandon all claim to omniscience.

    All righty then ... here we go!

    1. Leviticus 20:27 A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.

    2. Deuteronomy 22:21 Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you.

    3. Deuteronomy 22:24 Then ye shall bring them both out unto the gate of that city, and ye shall stone them with stones that they die; the damsel, because she cried not, being in the city; and the man, because he hath humbled his neighbour's wife: so thou shalt put away evil from among you.

    4. Deuteronomy 17:5 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.

    5. Ezekiel 23:47 And the company shall stone them with stones, and dispatch them with their swords; they shall slay their sons and their daughters, and burn up their houses with fire.

    6. Leviticus 20:10 And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

    7. Leviticus 20:11 And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

    8. Leviticus 20:12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.

    9. Leviticus 20:16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

    10. Numbers 31:17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him

    11. Genesis 38:24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.

    12. Leviticus 21:9 And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.

    Do not get defensive when someone questions your assumptions or disagrees with your assumptions about something you know nothiing about. The reason why you do not know is becasue you do not have the same faith as Chrsitians. I am not stating that is bad or good, just stating that you cannot possibly know becaue you have never experienced what Christians have experienced.

    What makes Christianity different than most other religions is that we are justified by faith, not works. when you look at Islam, Buddism, Confusis,, Taoism and other religions, they are justified by works, not faith, yet anyone follwoing any religion must have some faith to begin with.
