the frequency of Radio Maria, a renowned religious exemption to people who call spiritual advice and guidance drawn directly from the scriptures.
Some time ago, in a response to the listeners, said that homosexuality - as we read in the Bible (Leviticus, 18, 22) - and 'an abomination and can not be tolerated under any circumstances.
A listener wrote to him to seek guidance on some other issues of real life ...
Letter of May 16, 2009
"Dear priest, I am writing to thank you for your educational work on the laws of the Lord. I learned a great deal from your program, and I tried to share that knowledge with as many people as possible. Now, when someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it is an abomination, as is also eating shellfish (Leviticus 11:10).
End of discussion. But I need some advice from you, in respect of other specific laws and how to apply.
- I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as provided for in Exodus 21:7. What do you think would be a good price?
- When I give focus to a bull on the altar of sacrifice, I know from the scriptures that it produces a pleasant aroma to the Lord (Leviticus 1.9). The problem is with my neighbors.
- I know I can have contact with a woman only when he has her period (Leviticus 15:19-24). The difficulty is how do I know?
- Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this can be done with the Mexicans, but not with the French. Can you explain why?
- I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly says that should be put to death. Do I have to kill him myself?
- Leviticus 21:20 states that I can not get all 'altar of God if I have defective eyesight. I have to admit that I use reading glasses. There is some wiggle room here?
- In Leviticus 11:6-8 is that touching the skin of dead pig makes me unclean. To play football so I have to wear gloves?
- My uncle has a farm. He 's gone against Leviticus 19:19, because planting two different crops in the same field, and even his wife has violated the same step, because by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton / acrylic).
Not only that, I must confess sometimes my uncle swears. I have to gather all the inhabitants of the city to stone him as prescribed by the scriptures? Or I could, more simply, set him on fire while sleeping, as recommended nicely Leviticus 20:14?
I know you have studied these topics in depth, so I'm sure you can answer these simple questions.
A regular listener and observer. "
Needless to say, I hope that soon will be shared by the listener will surely be those who used light and precise answers from our trusted theologian.
soon!
