And exactly how is that an explanation for a verse among a list of directives for man given from God through Moses, that says it's okay to beat your slave so severely that they can't even pick themselves up off the ground for a day or two...no punishment required for the slavemaster.
How does "Man is slave to his sin" explain that when other directives given through Moses say things like the punishment for working on the Sabbath is death?
In case you forgot, the verse was Exodus 21:20-21

Blah Blah Blah! On to other things, it is over. Have a happy life!

Moses because of hardness at that time gave them laws and commandments, God gave Moses free will.

Well if that's true then this New Testament verse that was referring to Old Testament scripture, is incorrect:

2 Timothy 3:16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

How do you explain that?

If the Bible was literally God's Word it would be a whole lot less confusing. Haven't you ever considered that?

Moses was a man who had to lead a harddened people and everything he said did not come directly from God.

How do you explain that? It's in the New Testament. Moses didn't write it. Yet it's wrong too?

just remember Moses made mistakes but Jesus dont.

God Bless You, Rick Hube.
And shame on you, Sonny Audette. President Kennedy said he wouldn't put his church above the governing of this country and neither should you. You would have us all serve your master.

Not to worry, Sonny Audette abandoned his principles just like you wanted him to. Without him Same sex marriage would not be the law, as he was one of the votes to over ride the veto. Which to me makes him even worse.
I can respect someone who has a sense of principles and follows them. I thought we wanted our elected representatives to have principles and values that they follow. Our entire government is based on Judeo Christian principles, thank goodness.
I have much more respect for a legislator who sticks to their principles than those who change because they are trying to teach a political enemy a lesson. Doesn't say much for someone's character.
And please stop using the Kennedy's as an example of what it means to be Catholic. Not even close.

Moses didn't write that verse in 2nd Timothy. Why is that wrong? Why doesn't it explain that Moses wasn't right about what he wrote and say instead that all scripture is God-breathed?

people god if god is what others say and is fair to others and loves us all then he should not care what sex we are all into. even if god does not agree who is god to tell us all what we should do if it is true that god created this world he should have known some trouble or things he did not agree with would happen so why sit here an trash talk gsys or lesbians there just like me and you only they like a different sex which isn't really that different i mean everyone one likes someone different it shouldnt matter who or what sex they are if you want to be with them so people get a clue and listen to others have to say open yuor minds wide and try to keep your mind wide open you may never knpw what will happen or become of it

we all saw it coming anyway right? I have gay friends, and all i can say is as long as someone doesn't try to hit on me, do what you have to do. it's none of my business what gender you prefer.
