Memo to James Dobson: NEVER quote Leviticus 18:22 again
Advertisements [?]
From what I gather, Senator Obama, in his appeal to evangelicals, mentioned the Book of Leviticus, which says (among other things) that slavery's okay but eating oysters isn't. My buddy James Dobson claims Obama's twisting these Old Testament writings that (in his words) "don't apply anymore" with the words of Jesus.

The most common passage used by evangelicals and whatever the fuck Phelps is, is Leviticus 18.22: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind; it is an abomination." Leviticus is an Old Testament writing...did James Dobson just say the Old Testament prohibition against homosexuality doesn't apply anymore? I think he did.
