leviticus

[piranha]

whilst browsing today, i ran across somebody who was, i kid you not, quoting leviticus to show that we should not allow gays to marry.

i said something derogatory to the paramour, fuming about the self-serving selectivity of leviticus quoters, and was reduced to giggles by the statement that surely i had missed the part about where all the rules were optional, except for that one about gays.

of course. says so right here in leviticus 99:

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying 
Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, 
I am the LORD your God. 
Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, 
as ye please or not, choose ye each which ones ye wish to keep: 
I am the LORD your God, and it is all the same unto me.
Except for the one about faggots, that one I really mean.

I've always felt that anyone who wants to quote Leviticus to me as The Rule about my homosexuality, has every right do so - after he's stoned his neighbor's wife to death for wearing mixed fibers in her no-wrinkle poly-cotton sensible dress, and then made a burnt offering at the altar of the Lord consisting of plenty of ox thighs and young goats and doves.

Hypocrites.
