As I'm sure we all know, Dr. Laura shot herself in the foot with a gratuitous, on-air overuse of the word: "nigger," then angrily shitcanned herself during the entirely predictable backlash. She's going on to bigger and worser things, she says.
But a fan of hers has sent a last, piteous plea for her incomparable and godly advice:
Dear Dr. Laura:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. "End of debate," as you say.
I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the other specific laws and how to follow them.
1. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord-Lev.1:9. The problem is my neighbours. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
|
I've wondered about that one myself. Does the deity like the stench of burning hair and offal?
Anyhow, presented here are some of the, heh, burning questions presented by the OT, which I'm sure the good doctor can answer handily.

4. Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighbouring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians?

The show West Wing took a fictional Dr Laura to task when the president confronted her assertions about the bible and homosexuality. Same argument, but in prime time!!!

That is such an awesome piece! I loved it!
In fact, I think this is one of my favourite scenes from the whole series.

Although I love that scene, I think this one is even better. |

Dear Doctor Laura.....
