howdy folks
new here.
now that we have a supreme court that we want...it is only a matter of time before abortion and homoperversion will be made illegal. My question is what penalties should we attach to these crimes. I advocate death. I was wondering what you folks think. thanks for sharing

Would I be correct in saying this is in reference to Levitcus, chapter 20? (specifically verse 13)
I think we have to ask ourselves; would God have us keep the same punishments today?
When I look at Leviticus 20:10, "If a man commits aldutery with another man's wife-- with the wife of his neighbor-- both the aldulterer and the adulteress must be put to death," I am reminded of John 8:1-11 (the story of the alduteress, when Jesus said, "let he who is without sin cast the first stone")
Also, there is Leviticus 20:11, "If a man sleeps with his father's wife, he has dishonored his father. Both the man and the woman must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads." However, in 1 Corinthians 5, a man caught in the same situation is simply to be expelled from the church.
Please don't misinterpret me; I am not saying this is a contradiction. I am saying we must keep in mind the context of Leviticus; God was speaking specifically to the Isreaelites as they were about to enter the promised land. If one of God's chosen people were to give into sin, it would be a great threat to the rest of the nation. As it says, "A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough." 1 Corinthians 5:6, and, ""Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you have become defiled. Even the land was defiled; so i punished it for its sin and the land vomited out its inhabitants. But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the aliens living among you must not do any of these detestable things, for all of these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you." Leviticus 18:24-28.
Hmmm.... I realize i'm not doing a very good job of explaining this

... I can also see I'm leaving myself wide-open to misinterpretation, so I'm just going to stop before I get myself any deeper than I already am. =-) Hopefully someone else can explain what I am trying to say...
