Eating shellfish was an unclean animal, which God said to peter was ok to eat unclean animals shortly after Jesus ascended. Shaving was for priests and was lifted when eating unclean animals became ok (which God said, not humans), wearing cotton was against the law before Jesus, but once again it was lifted. Cutting your hair if you are a woman once again was lifted, so was getting a tattoo. Having sex was never outlawed, God made sex to unite a man and a woman, but you shouldn't have sex with anyone other than your spouse. Getting remarried is bad unless your spouse had died, which is ok. God actually tells us to take care of the widows and orphans, so if a widower marries a widow, it's fine. Ruth did that in the bible and God blessed her and she was an ancestor to Jesus. Eating a cheeseburger is fine because God lifted the unclean animal ban. Now being gay God clearly said is not good, he said it was between a married man and a woman, and that was never lifted even after Jesus because God intended these other things to eventually get lifted, but he never intended to lift being gay, because it is between a married man and a woman. (A reminder that he doesn't like unmarried men and women to have sex either.) I believe God is good and loving, and I believe this means he is telling us what is best for us. It doesn't mean we should hate anyone, because he calls us to love. But we also cannot love what God has said is not good for us. So in other words, we love the people but don't love everything someone does. (You might hear someone say it as God tells us to hate the sin and love the sinner.) So just because someone is gay doesn't mean we should hate them, we should still love them :)

Good grief.

The Bible is a book that PEOPLE wrote, not God. Yes, ancient Israelis were very homophobic (but not SO homophobic that nobody was gay, obviously: you generally don't write a prohibition against something that nobody is doing). Why are you taking the word of some patriarch dead these 2,500 years about what's okay for other people to do with the people they love?

It still is very relevant today.

First off, God told humans what to write down hence it is God's word. Second, we don't have to care for what God says, but he knows what's best for us, like a loving parent telling us not to do drugs, not because he hates us, but because he loves and wants what is best for us. And what rules were harmful to people? Not only has God claimed to be an authority figure, but he's also proven it. No ordinary man can raise people from the dead, calm a storm, walk on water, let alone create the universe.

God told Reverend Sun Myung Moon that he's the return of Jesus.

Gotta admit that stoning someone to death for collecting firewood on Saturdays or using the toilet on that day isn't really TOO harmful.
Also sending menstruating women to camp out in the wilds far away from the house for 8 days is a good idea considering they can be more annoying than usual. And icky.

"Jimmy, where have you been for the last 3 days?"

"It was nothing mom, just had a wet dream and had to go purify myself in the woods"

I doth spilleth my seed unto the ground instead of my dead brother's wife, and now the Lord must cursedeth me with blindness.

Nowadays guys are doing the same with their LIVING brothers' wives (or their own) with no consequences.
I reckon the Lord just doesn't care enough about us to blind us anymore *wipes tear*

David slew Goliath who was then slain by Elhanan instead.

Well first off, the bible was written over 1500 years and there are no contradictions over what happened, for instance, no contradictions on the resurrection of Jesus, which there probably would be a couple of them if the apostles were fibbing. There is nothing wrong with feminism, wearing cloth, or eating pork, God told his people to do it to put them to a higher standard and to not be like the rest of the "unclean" world (God didn't say it like that, but he wants his people to be different). I think what the Bible meant by slavery is miscomprehended. It says later in the bible for masters to be nice to their slaves and slaves to be respectful to their masters. What I think Exodus 21 meant was you can beat them for doing something wrong or for being lazy, but don't kill them. And here's the thing about slaves. They were mostly from different countries they had defeated in battle. God also clearly stated in his 10 commandments not to commit adultery, not to say the lord's name in vein, and to only worship God. And for the last part, there is a 1 in a trillion to the 13th power that the world was created on accident. Even scientists are saying the world was created by something. Not only that but if these miracles didn't actually happen, wouldn't there be contradictions about what happened? And who would die for something they knew was false?

First off, Moses didn't see God's face. In 2 Samuel 1, a messenger lied that he killed Saul and was killed. Saul killed himself because the Philistines were all over. God didn't kill Saul but he said that saul would die within a day before he did. Also, it said Merab had 5 kids, not Micheal.

It said that he was wounded, then he killed himself. They probably made sure he was dead, not that they actually killed himself. They did kill his kids tho

God warned Saul he would die a day before he committed suicide. So in a way God killed Saul, but Saul was the one who killed himself

In first samuel 31, Sauls servant was terrified to do it, so he and Saul both killed himself. If his servant was terrified to kill him, how come would the other one be perfectly fine with it? Not only that, but in In second Samuel 1:14, David asks why he wasn't afraid to kill him.

Saul killed himself because the philistines were all over, and God said Saul would die the next day, not that he would outright kill him. And I never called God a liar, because he can't and didn't lie

You are obviously not paying attention to what I have said. His servant didn't kill him, he lied to David. The Philistines didn't kill him, he killed himself because the Philistines were everywhere. God didn't kill him, but one day before he died God said he would die tomorrow. If God had not wanted Saul to die yet, he wouldn't have.

I'll answer your other stuff soon

The disciples rejoiced after being beaten. Why would anyone rejoice after that, unless they know for certain they are doing something right

If they were wrong how come would they tell a lie for hundreds of years, be persecuted, and have the same story?

Yes.

In all likelihood they were just mistaken, not lying.
