: I need some advise regarding some of the specific biblical laws and how to follow them.

: When i burn a bull at the alter as a sacrefice,i know it creates a pleasing oder to the lord.(Lev.1:9.) The problem is my neighbors.They claim the oder is not pleasing to them.How should i deal with this?

-The Lord told us to close our doors to pray to God. I'm sure the Lord will be happier if you took your sacrifices away from the neighbors. I'm sure the Lord will be happy enough if you merely pray behind closed door instead of causing a fire hazard.

: I would like to sell my daughter into slavery,as it suggest in (Exsodus21:7.) In this day and age what do you think would be a fair price for her?

-If you know about the history during those times, women were sold into slavery. All the Lord is saying is to be kind to them and let them redeem themselves. Unlike some ist male pigs, I think the Lord is giving the women a bit of freedom here, which is definitely more than what i could say about men all throughout history. More power to Him.

: I know i am allowed no contact with a women,while she is in her period of uncleanliness.(Lev.15:19-24.)The problem is,how do i tell? I have tried asking,but most women take offense.

-You should only lie with your wife. And if you dunno when your wife is in her period of uncleanliness, find out. No matter how much offense she takes, she can't divorce you since that's a sin in God's eyes too. So you're pretty much stuck with her; you just might not get to lie with her until she's no longer miffed. Can you deal with that?

: (Lev.25:44.) States that i may by slaves from the nations that are around us.A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans,but not Americans.Can you clarefy?

-When was the bible written? A long long time ago. Did they allow slavery then? Yeah. Do they allow slavery now? No. I suppose your friend can't have his slaves after all.

: I have a neighbor who insist on working on the sabbath.(Exodus35:2) clearly states he should be put to death,am i moraly oblegated to kill him myself?

-Please read Chapter 12 in the Book of Matthew (the first book in the New Testament). Maybe that'll help you a bit.

: A friend of mine feels even tho eating shell fish is an abomination(Lev.10:10,)it is lesser than an abomenation than homouality.I don't agree.Can you settle this?

-shell fish? what bible is that from? animal bible? i'm christian. i have lotsa gay friends. what does that make me? a Christian. "Do not judge, or you too will be judged." (Matthew 7:1)
I would hate to be judged since I'm not the most holy person in the world, so i'm making it as easy as possible on myself: love every darned person in this human-infested world. do you realize how many people i gotta love?

: (Lev.20:20 )States that i may not approach the alter of God if i have a defect in my sight.I have to admit that i wear reading gles.Does my vision have to be 20/20,or is there some wiggle room there?

-wiggle room is great. unfortunately, i don't think approaching the altar has anything to do with boinking your uncle's wife and dying childless. why doncha read lev 20:20 one more time and get better prescriptioned gles next time?

: I know you have studied these thingd extensively,so i am confident that you can help.Thank you again for reminding us,that God's word is eternal and unchanging.

It's always my pleasure. May the Lord be with you. And thanks for making me open my bible and attempt to think a bit.
