The Old Testament is one kick butt Daddy religion theological text isn't it?

Anyway, I would hate to meet this professor emeritus in court. He'd shred me.

the "professor" Emeritus is a loin, a Christian could easily shred his arguments.  Also,  Schlesinger, a Jew, didn't have to rely on the Law of Moses, and thus could have avoided arguments about Moses' Law by citing the creation account which precedes Moses' Law.

That's Bronze Age literature for you

of course, you're purposely ignoring three facts:

1) the fact the instructions are independent of the level of technology, just as the New Testament teachings are independent of the level of technology.

2) the New Testament, written over a thousand years after the bronze age ended, affirms the Law of Moses as given by God.

3) the New Testament affirms that homosexuality is sinful and rooted in shameful lust

So the existance of a god (your god) is 'fact' now is it? You may call them opinion, you may call them beliefs but you cannot call them fact.

obviously, the facts I referred to was in reference to what is written, not the accuracy of what was written.

Example:  Saying, "It is a fact the bible says that God exists"  is not the same thing as saying, "It is a fact that God exists."

of course, there is Mother God imagery in Isaiah.
really the OT is quite varied. but what else would you expect coming from a millenium long tradition of writings?

"as a mother" does not equate to "is a mother"
