I've always wondered why people pick out that particular chapter and verse of Leviticus to hammer down on others. Don't they read the rest of the chapter? Do they really want to suffer the other punishments meted out? Either follow Leviticus or not. Can't pick and choose.
I've wondered why people focus only on the "Thou Shalts" and the "Thou Shalt Nots" without giving any thought to the admonition
"Do not judge, or you will be judged. For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." (Matthew 7:1-2)
I mean, "Sodomy" is loosely defined by the "Righteous" as any form of sex that is not between a man and a woman, and that is not for the sole purpose of procreation. So if two people pleasure each other anally, orally, or even digitally, that is "Sodomy" under the judgement of the "Righteous", and those two people must be put to death under Levitican law.
But if two "Righteous" people deviate from there interpretation, then it's supposed to be alright because their "Righteousness" means they cannot sin. I would not be surprised if the sheriff I mentioned earlier has engaged in something other than vaginal intercourse, and in something other than the missionary position.
Hypocrisy...
