Does this override GOD's 4th commandment? There are a number of commands which ar to be found in Bible. Such things as stoning adulterers, killing 'witches(poisoner)', killing 'unruly' childern. Do you practice or advocate these practices now? Don't hide behind 'that was for sanctuary worship, all washed away now' type arguements. If it was 'illegal' then it's still illegal now. And if it was so special, why is there no record of it's observance from the 7th day of creation to Mount Sinai? (Approx. 3 thousand years by the 6K year old earth, 2K before the flood type, 1K to Moses type reconing). The mention of any ritual in Genisis is sparse to say the least, a few burnt offerings, a few idols, a prostitute, that's about it. -- John Clark jclark@ucsd.edu
