Dear Mr. President:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from you and understand
why you would propose and support a constitutional amendment prohibiting same sex marriages. As you stated "in the eyes of
God marriage is based between a man a woman." I try to share this knowledge with as many people as I can. When people try
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 Laws and how to follow them.
1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may 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 to Canadians. Can you clarify? Can I or can't I own
Canadians?
2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, in accordance with 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 not allowed to have any contact with a woman while she is in her
period of menstrual uncleanness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
4.
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 that
my neighbors claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
5. I have a neighbor who insists on working
on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should
I ask the police to do it?
6. 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" on this?
7. 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 be put to death?
8. 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?
9. 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 as provided in Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private
family affair as prescribed in Lev. 20:14 for people who sleep with their in-laws?
10. A friend of mine feels that
even though eating shellfish is an abomination, according to Leviticus 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality.
I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination or is it equally sinful to lay with someone of the
same sex or to eat oysters?
I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in
such matters, so I am confident you can help me.
Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is unchanging.
