I'll bite as well, the whole concept of taking the bible literally means that you would have to accept contradiction from book to book. The historical perspective and the times are to be considered....women were treated like property not humans should we then continue this because it says so in the bible. This whole if your gay your going to hell crap is the kind of stuff I think makes Jesus want to bend over and puke. I have a fundamenatlist friend who says Ghandi went to hell......give me a break if ghandi is in hell just because he did not say the magical words I accept you jesus and he lived more like christ than some moron who treats people like shit but is going to heaven becuase he said the magical words.....get real, heaven is going to be a total bummer if the only people who get in are close minded opioniated bigots.
I believe this message was inspired through me by a more sane less prejudicial God...one of love and mercy.....
