you can pick out many things in the old testament and justify it today, they were not against the law then until Jesus did away with it in the new.

Funny, that argument has a very familiar ring to it...oh, yeh, I remember now, it was the same line my mama pulled out every time I pointed out the glaring contradictions in the Bible...so, if the old law is out, & we only go with what Jesus said as true, why do we still keep the Old Testament around?.

Screw some acts of preachers, priest and holy men in all religions and faiths just cause they may do it does not make them RIGHT, it makes them HUMAN..

I never meant to say that they were right...my point is that the Bible is a flawed document, (did he really say that!?!  ) written by flawed humans, edited by same, & has been used & abused by the worst scoundrels to justify the worst impulses of human nature...to the point that your statement, "we all know what God says" cannot be true, because so many that THINK they know what it says are just vomiting up the corrupted interpretations of some demogogue...
