I need a reference for the obvious? "Holy Cow" refers to the belief that Hindus worship cattle, and declaring them "holy", which takes in vain that which truly is holy... God. But if you insist, go here.

Good enough. Don't say that (Holy ***) or you'll go to hell!

A straight up, ignorant lie. Ask any homosexual. You do know some homosexual well enough to ask them such a thing, don't you. Loser?

Absolutely. It has been my study that has led me to these empirical conclusions. It is a straight up ignorant lie to reject such a well-established truth.
I have an 'adopted son' who has lived with my family for 15 years. He was a practicing homosexual before coming here but not any more. He could tell you why he was homosexual if you like. Also, my sister-in-law is gay but she became a Christian and she no longer lives that way, either. She, also, could enlighten you to some truth.
Most homosexuals have a hard time being honest; with others but also with themselves. All addicts have a hard time admitting that they have a problem with LUST. It is, however, the first step to recovery.

My beef is that interest on loans is now a well established part of business, and perfectly acceptable to the vast majority of American Christians. Yet the Bible clearly and specifically forbids the charging of interest. Such picking and choosing of what is right and wrong is straight up hypocrisy.
Wouldn't you agree?

Absolutely. There are a lot of teachings in the Bible, if followed, that would make the world a better place to live. Gleaning in the fields is one example and the Year of Jubilee is another. I would love to see those practices firmly established.

'm sorry to be the one to inform you, Loser, but morality is, in fact, relative. 2,000 years ago, slavery was a necessary and vital part of every civilized economy. It was the labor saving devices of the day, a part of everyday life, and the Bible - both old and new Testament - clearly accept it as such.

Your post proved my point. Thank you. As I said, slavery is not the evil people portray. However, that said, forced slavery like the kind committed by the Egyptians over the Hebrews was NOT acceptable to God and He punished the Egyptians for it.

Good lord, (ooops, there I go, taking Jesus name in vain) you're totally clueless to your own faith.

The verse you posted only show the hierarchy of leadership. Being submissive or in subjection to another in NO WAY makes one inferior. That is only your own deluded thinking. Jesus said:
"Mar 9:35 And he sat down, and called the twelve, and saith unto them, If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all."
and a Christian tenet:
"Gal 3:28 Faith in Christ Jesus is what makes each of you equal with each other, whether you are a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a man or a woman."
Keep reading, you'll get there.
Go ahead and just ignore my post (don't respond). I'll be unsubscribing to this thread and probably won't return.
