Everyday activities that will get you stoned by Biblethumpers (not the good kind of stoned!).
More and more States in the US and countries around the world are starting to accept concepts such as Gay Marriage which were formerly seen as morally reprehensible and repugnant. Often the charge against the granting of such rights is led by religious groups who claim that homosexuality is against God’s law as set out in the Bible.
Of course we all know of (and can probably recite most of) the 10 Commandments and we know we should not tell lies, should not murder, rape
, steal, prostitute your children etc. These are sensible concepts that have been taken from the Bible and codified into law in most nation states.However, the Bible does not stop at sensible suggestions; it also prohibits a long list of activities that form a part of our modern way of life. Indeed many of the people insisting on bans on homosexuality because of the Bible are probably guilty of contravening some of the stranger prohibitions like eating fat (Leviticus 3:17). Many of these prohibitions are contained in the book of Leviticus but banned activities can be found throughout the Bible.
We have listed a few of our favorite things (most of which you have probably done or know someone who has at least once in your life) so here is our list of top 10 (reasonable) day to day things banned by the bible.
