"Hilarious" is overselling it a bit, methinks. Though I appreciate the irony of a Jewish website posting that!

Eternal and indisputable? Yep. Literal? Yep. Direct speech from the mouth of God? Yep.
So why do most Christians eat prawns, worship on Sunday and not stone their children for talking back to them? Simple: interpretation and convenience. This is why there are so many different Christian and Muslim denominations: they all believe the holy book is true, but it's amazing how far that "truth" can be bent in order to fit preconceived or socially acceptable views. |
Romans6:14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Few do, HAL. Only those granted access to the Book of Murdoch for $59.99 a month may know of what Frank speaks.
