A brief reading of the many articles on the Bible, especially Leviticus (which are the words of Moses et al, who were all of the Hebrew Levi Tribe). Many of the writings were rife with adherents to practices or avoidance of actions and activities supposedly forbidden by God. In reading these banned items are references to practices by other cultures such as styles of haircuts. tattoos, etc. These practices while forbidden by the Hebrew bible at that time were no more than rules to govern them selves and their interaction with other groups of non Jewish people. These Non Jews have similar restrictions as to dress, appearance and actions related to many of the Jewish restrictions that have survived the ages to come down to us as “Gospel”. Biblical scholars interpret and reinterpret the Old and new testament have not and do not always get the real meaning correct. These literal interpretations have been the catalyst to create more religious sects and subsequent interpretations. This leaves us today with a multitude mini sects and interpretations which in the long run loses and limits the human quality of living along side one another. In essence the “word” has separated us more than tie us together.
Think about it.
