Confusion

I've got a nagging problem with theist who tell after I mention to them the barbaric laws of David that Jesus changed those laws by his coming to earth as saviour of mankind. Then I'll ask them their beef with homosexuals and they revert right back to the old testament laws which they just said Jesus changed. WTF. I'm not gay but I find the hypocrisy incredible.

Clifton Barton,

It pays to remember that the New Testament has a lot of verses against homosexuality and sexual immorality. The difference is that the Old Testament specified stoning but the New Testament excludes people who practice such behavior from the kingdom of Yahweh.

People who blab about the Old Testament on that issue just show that they don't know anything about the New Testament or else they would cite it as their reference.

What? Jesus ''changed all

What? Jesus ''changed all that''. I try to pay as little attention as possible to the happy sky daddy book also known as the Holy Babble, but many atheists know this verse from the Babble: Matthew 5:17: “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. So how again did Jeebus change everything again???
