Calling Out Dr. Laura's Bible Thumping

I rarely post the work of others, because I feel a bit plagiaristy about it. However, I find this far too amazing a gem to keep to myself.

Many of you are probably familiar with Dr. Laura and her rather strict theories on life, love, family and more. These strict theories are typically theologically driven: she is an Orthodox Jew. As an atheist, I find many of these rules and regulations that are dictated by the extremely profitable reifications that are the bible and Torah to be contradictory and illogical. Of course I know that I'm not the only one, but I'm not clever enough to email Dr. Laura with a list of questions asking for clarification on the most illogical, segregationist, bigoted, and offensive segments of the Old Testament.

Click here to view the whole email is all its awesome glory.

In case you don't have time to view it. Here are a few select questions posed to Dr. Laura:

1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighbouring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

3. 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.

6. 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 you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?

Thank you to the Magic City Morning Star for making this an article and posting it. It's much needed, extremely important news...identifying the insanity of belief in the all-manipulated, Guttenberg pressed, guide to live in the year 1 AD.

I'd also like to hear Dr. Laura speak to the value of the Dark Ages.
