Are we back to the "I know you are but what am I" defense?

Was this evidence the website in Russian? Or was this evidence this
"someone you know"?

Well, it's hardly an aknowledgement that another brother or sister,
following Christ came to a different conclusion than you.
It an attempt to discredit with some sort of
indignation....i.e...name-calling.

I do not sup****t gross perversion. I advocate Christian love and
acceptance,
responsibility and monogamy.
This is a free an open newsgroup....with lots of different people with
lots
of different views.
This may come as a shock, but you are not the arbiter in the newsgroup of
what is a fallacy. You keep tryingt to build yourself up as some
authority
on something.

No I'm trying to make the point that the scripture is to be read in
context.

No...sorry. People who were dirty, not washed, etc....were allowed in the
temple.
(And what kind of ritual would not let someone who was physically dirty
not
enter a temple?)
Women who were menstarting were not. It had nothing to do with phycical
cleanliness.

Another cop out....
If you would like to discuss this like an adult...with civility and
respect...that would be refre****ngly change.
