>1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both

>applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify?
>Why can't I own Canadians?

>2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as

>
>3. I know from Leviticus 11:6-8 that touching the skin of
>a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play
>football if I wear gloves?
>
>4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know
>it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord--Leviticus 1:9.
>The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not
>pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
>
>5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the
>Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states that he should be put
>to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or
>should I ask the police to do it?
>
>6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating
>shellfish is an abomination (Leviticus 11:10), it is a
>lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can
>you settle this? Are there degrees of abomination?

>7. Leviticus 21:20 states that I may not approach the
>altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to
>admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to
>be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?
>
>8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed,

>they die?
>
>9. My uncle has a farm. He violates Leviticus 19:19 by

That's what makes the beauty of the bible. Opened to interpretation.

After that interpretation you can prove anybody to be wrong or right <g>
