Mississippi lawmaker cites Bible passage that calls for gays to be put to death

Kudos for consistency in theocratic ambitions. I look forward to his further statements condemning cotton-poly blends, the consumption of shellfish, and the uncleanliness of menstration and masturbation.

cotton-poly blends?  if your going to quote the bible get it right there is nothing wrong with this and the bible never mentions this.


(just for the record I know what your trying to say and are to ignorant to say)

Leviticus 19:19
Keep my decrees. Do not mate different kinds of animals. Do not plant your field with two kinds of seed. Do not wear clothing woven of two kinds of material.

The Talmud makes it pretty clear that the verse only means wool-linen blends, which is, again, one of the reasons why it's so silly when people take random passages out of the Law of Moses and quote them directly as meaning something.  (That includes this guy in the OP, of course). 

I'm sure the MS lawmaker in question accepts the validity of the Talmud
