This is absurd. There are various sections of the bible that are
absolutely clear and leave no room for interpretation. Leviticus is one
of the most direct books of the bible as it includes almost nothing but
a list of rules to obey and punishment if you disobey.
I was once a member of a christian church. Since then I have lied,
failed to honor my father, worked on all seven days of the week, made
love to a menstruating woman, eaten unclean animals ( shellfish, pork,
rabbits ) and been as blasphemous as I can possibly be. Leviticus says
that for these actions your god will kill me in a variety of gruesome
fashions.
Instead I lead a prosperous and happy life. I have the time and money to
pursue my hobbies and I still have time left over to work to protect
science education from scum like you.
Just checked my pulse and respiration, I'm still alive.
Ken
