A jot here, a title there

As long as i did a post on Christianity, wanna do one more. The American Taliban (i.e. the politically right wing Christians) Support the rule of sharia biblical law over secular law in America, and eventually, across the world.

This would mean of course, Deuteronomy and Leviticus, among other parts. Now granted those books have been a goldmine for comedians, but to the religious right of all the Abrahamic Faiths they are the frigin word of almighty God. 

In fact , in 1 AD they were the law in Judea (except where it was preempted by those comparatively liberal, soft on crime etc. Romans...). They are at the center of Mosaic, Sharia, and middle ages Canon Law. 

Mainline Christianity was housebroken by the Enlightenment/Age of Reason and its components of "humanist" values.
So here is a fun one for your friends who are liberal Christians, (the ones who will "...suffer a witch to live" :) ):

What would Jesus do?

Well, hmmm, Matthew 5 ,17:

"Do not think that i am come to destroy the law or the prophets.

 I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil."

The Vulgate Bible, Vol. VI Douay-Reims Translation, page 21 (2013).

Let me just say i am aware of the reams of Christian apologetica* on this, so you can skip the emails...As well as the positions of dispentationalism and hyper-dispensationalism yada yada.

But hey, dems da words....


As in "apology"; something that is said or written to defend something that other people criticize. See here
