Why Can't I Own a Canadian?
October 2002
Dr. Laura Schlessinger is a radio personality who dispenses saran to people who call in to her radio show. Recently, she berkata that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following is an open letter to Dr. Laura penned oleh a east coast resident, which was diposting on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative:
Dear Dr. Laura:
Thank anda for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries 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 saran from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them:
When I burn a banteng on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this hari and age, what do anda think would be a fair price for her?
I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15:19- 24. The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed 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 Canadians. Can anda clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?
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?
A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can anda settle this?
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 membaca glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, atau is there some wiggle room here?
Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden oleh Lev. 19:27. How should they die?
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?
My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 oleh planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife oleh 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? - Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
I know anda have studied these things extensively, so I am confident anda can help. Thank anda again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.
Your devoted fan,
Jim

I know some pertanyaan about canada that non-canadians ask about Canada, i'm going to tell anda the jawaban
first, anda can NOT see polar bears in the jalan, street and we don't ride the them either we use CARS.
second, we live in houses, not igloos we would probably freeze after awhile
Thats all i know but know anda won't think canadians live in igloos and if Miley cyrus is membaca this and did say canada sucks,WELL IT DOESEN'T SUCK!!!!

I missed my chance.. I'm always one tahun behind in this show.. But now that their tampilkan every episode in order, to prepare for the new season 7, so I'm getting my chance.
I'm so excited, especially cause it has Steven Ogg in it now. (AKA, this guy).
It's pretty easy to say that Grand Theft Auto did a lot for this guy, cause now just about everyone knows who he is.
It's weird how he always protrays nutcase's like Trevor, when the real Steve Ogg is such a nice guy from what I can tell.
But still, the guy that portrayed Trevor Phillips.
How can that NOT be awesome for the dark, violent, nature of a tampil like Walking Dead?
Where, even someone as kind hearted as Rick Grimes has murdered people in cold blood, in newer seasons he doesn't even feel remorse anymore.
But, yeah.. Steve Ogg.. I'm excited :)
