8. No it really should say.

Dumb shit that people that interpret the bible say it says.
I just clicked on it and it showed something from Duteronimy...and apparently most people don't know that those are the laws laid down on the nation of Israel more than 3000 years ago...there is no divine mandate anywhere in the bible to have such laws.
And if you apply Christianity to it, Jesus himself spoke out against such laws.

But I can show some dumb laws from less than 200 years ago in our own country...does that mean the constitution is bogus?
I don't want to fight over this so just take what I said for what it is worth...there is plenty to criticize about religion without being stupid about it.
