Eric Meyer has a good article about his home state banning people from getting married.

His points reflect my views entirely.

On her radio show recently, Dr. Laura Schlesinger said that homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura which was posted on the Internet.

Dear Dr. Laura:

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Law and how to follow them.

1. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord – Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness – Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

4. Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can’t I own Canadians?

5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2. The passage clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination – Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don’t agree. Can you settle this? Are there ‘degrees’ of abomination?

7. Lev. 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, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27. How should they die?

9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?

10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? – Lev.24:10-16. Couldn’t we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with People who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)

I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy Considerable expertise in such matters, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging.

There are a number of things that irratate me about the iPod. One of them is when I am using “Shuffle Songs.” Shuffle songs is cool when you are listening to your entire library, or a play list but when I go to listen to an album it still shuffles the songs so now the album is out of order. So I have to click five times to get back to the main menu and find the Shuffle option and shut it off.

Thats annoying to me. Maybe a double click action that would take me to the main menu would be enough?

Another thing that annoys me is when I go through the above situation and continue listening to my music and want to go back to my Playlist, I am all the way back at the main menu. It seems like once the “Now Playing” screen comes back on I should be able to hit menu and go back to the playlist that is playing.

Pretty annoying.

I was on my way to Kmart to buy some pants hangers and a few rubbermaid containers when I pulled into the parking lot and saw it was packed. I realized then I was going to have a stressfull experience there dealing with the people in the store and waiting in a long line to check out.

I decided to mvoe on to Target and it was packed as well. But I knew everything would be fine since they have tons of regsiters always open, along with the other nice store things, like wider isles. This turned out to be true as I was able to find a register open with no wait.

I wont even bring up how terrible the customer experience is at Wal Mart.
