lol, not a very good night for you, obviously......
Sounds like Jewish law to me, didn't I mention that in one of my other quotes, if I didn't, I meant to do so. Leviticus does not apply to me, I am not Jewish and I would guess, neither are you...and I didn't rely on Bruce, I turn to other scholars and their books. I do read the site for comparisons of religion and it was often sited when I participated on an evolution message board and there were some great articles on that subject. I wasn't the one who posted the article, I just put in my two cents on the site...you jump to many wrong conclusions! Bruce didn't write the passages that he posted, I thought you believed God wrote those! weren't they just Bible quotes that poet posted from religioustolerance? you got all ramped up over reading something incorrectly! sorry for you!

PmP, just to give you an idea of who you're arguing with...several months ago, there was a discussion in which I demonstrated Muhammad penetrated Ayesha when she was nine-years-old (it's well documented in Islamic writings). Most libs simply chose to ignore the thread; Christiefan denied it; but Rana actually defended the perversion, saying it was acceptable in those times (which is untrue).
I like Rana, but let's face it, she's not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and her moral compass is in serious need of calibration...

Can you name some of these scholars and their books?
Funny, I have accused ID of the same thing!
After you give me the stats that show most scholars support your views and I mean scholars, not fundie preachers.
How very untruthful of you, but if it makes you feel better to put words into my mouth, knock yourself out. And you don't really like me when you state such things, so quit pretending you do. Cheap shots are all you are good for.
On the contrary, I loved the debate until you made it personal...that is when you lost control, and I am still having a good night, what you write does not affect me, but it does make me want to end the discussion with you.
Like I said, putting words into my mouth, arranged marriages were and still are practiced in many cultures, and no where did I say that I agreed with this practice, just that it was done and there are many scholars, once again, who claim that she was older than 9, but I know you will continue to judge me on this one, and nothing I say here will change your "opinion" I am a woman and the very practice of arranged marriages disgusts me, but it was a different time and a different culture and what was acceptable then was changed in the USA in 1929! It took that long! i can not change the past only the present and the future! I will be sure to vote against child marriages if the issue ever comes up for vote in the USA!
The Moral Law, or covenant, under-girded the Civil and Ceremonial laws- That is to say that God's covenant with Israel was one of obedience to the law that was demonstrated through Israel's ability to keep it...which they could not do- All of this pointed Israel to their need for a savior. Indeed the entire history of the covenants is about pointing man towards his need of a savior. Ceremonial laws dealing with food and sacrifice were about Christ. Civil law too was about a nation of God' keeping the Law perfectly-the moral of the story is that man simply cannot do so.

standing on an untenable foundation has that effect as well......

Loyal to the end
Reading Rana's posts in this thread, I would suggest that she continue to use unparalleled logic and reason instead of emotion as her tormentors have done. I also suggest that she use more exclamation points, perhaps intersperse them within sentences instead of confining them merely to the ends.

Ephesians 2
15by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations.
Hebrews 8
13By calling this covenant "new," he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear.
Romans 10
4Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
Romans 7
6But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
2 Corinthians 3
13We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to keep the Israelites from gazing at it while the radiance was fading away. 14But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away.Galatians 3
13Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree."
23Before this faith came, we were held prisoners by the law, locked up until faith should be revealed. 24So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ[h] that we might be justified by faith. 25Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law.
