Food for thought!? Laura Schlessinger is a US radio personality, who dispenses advice to people who call in to her Radio show. On her radio show recently, she said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination, according to Leviticus 18:22 and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, penned by a US resident, which was posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as thought-provoking. -- 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. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may 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? 2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her? 3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness - Lev.15: 19-24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offence. 4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odour for the Lord - Lev.1:9. The problem is, my neighbours. They claim the odour is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them? 5. I have a neighbour who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it? 6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination - Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination? 7. Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here? 8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev 19:27. How should they die? 9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? 10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? (Lev.24:10-16). Couldn't we just burn them to death at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14) I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging. Your adoring fan Gene Grigson Security guard Phone 2353535 ext 5166
Carol - You go girl!! Thanks for the comments that I have given you some confidence. I think we all have it in us we just lose it for awhile. I read something recently that in order to make it big you have to take a risk. Here I'm re-entering the workforce in my 50s and I have found out so far that my employers really appreciate maturity over youth. Almost finished my 3 weeks orientation and I have never been so busy and so tired and loving it just the same.

I too had an interesting week - I resigned from Qld Health !!! (State Health Board) I have wanted to do that for several months and now I've done it.... I'm not scared of being out of work and broke and then crawling back to get some days' work.

Irene - Yes, I agree with you that one must be patient when searching for lost ancestors. Once I had a whole family tree sent to me from unexpected sources which took my ex-husband's maternal grandmother's side back to the 1700 hundreds. Before this her aunts had said that I wouldn't be able to find anything. Boy were they surprised. This weekend I'm working 11 - 7 on my new job as I they gave me Thursday off. Tomorrow I will have to some more grocery shopping and laundry etc. Today will finish 2 weeks of orientation for my new job. Still liking it and boy does the time go fast. People I work with are great. Well, must run.

Hang in there Martin, maybe one day soon your relo will pop onto our list. I think your Hampshire Loveless's should be easy, I keep looking at them and think the link must be there somewhere. I emailed Vivienne and have had a reply already. Her interest is in Withers, don't think they connect but certainly worth double checking. Yeah Cas what a surprise, how's the new house?? What happen to the trip to Melbourne? Saturday, the start of my weekend, time restock the food into the house, do the thousand things at the shops I don't get done because I am locked in an office all week, clean my house grrrr an all weekend job in itself (any volunteers who want to help) perhaps treat the family to a cooked meal, mm maybe, prune all my roses, Ooo I love pruning, think constantly about the next place to look for my descendents, read my book which is getting real interesting (of course English history, set in 1465) watch my footy team probably get annihilated again, make such my kids and hubby are happy, come up with another idea to stop my dog from eating my fruit tree, out of 15 trees in my back yard he wants to eat my pear tree and then rest up for my next full week of work:-) Oh and went to the flicks with my sister last night and saw Monster In Law, fabulous movie, Jane Fonda was fantastic.

Well, well, finally someone mentions my family. This Elizabeth Withers Loveless is my ggg grandmother. YIPEE!!!!

Hi all Looks like summer has finally arrived here in London. Has anyone come across a Mrs Robinson who was grandaughter to James Hammett TPM? Regards Sally
Dawn - I haven't got back to the records for 1824 yet but I have found my original transcript notes from when I was only transcribing the names that I was interested in. In these notes there are no records of burials for any LOVELESSes around 1824. I know that I would of recorded any burials etc as LOVELESS was one of the names that I was researching. Anyways, I'm transcribing presently from the CD that LDS has sent me. It maybe that there will a difference of what was recorded.

Irene - I did a search on the British Vital Records and couldn't find James. I also couldn't find this family on the 1881 census. Doesn't mean they were there just that I couldn't locate them. The girls were probably married by this time.

yah... I thought about you when I read that, Donna -- so, have you all traced your 'commandos?' jki On Jun 4, 2005, at 10:06 AM, Donna King wrote: Jacki - thanks for this one.

Jacki - thanks for this one. I couldn't stop laughing. It even mentions CANADA in connection with the Israelites. Donna History by Children ... school's out!! [Thanks, Judy!] The following excerpts are actual answers given on history tests and in Sunday school quizzes by children between the 5th and 6th grades in Ohio. They were collected over a period of three years by two teachers. Read carefully for grammer, misplaced modifiers and, of course, spelling! Kids should rule the world, as it would be a laugh a minute for us adults and therefore no time to war or argue. Ancient Egypt was old. It was inhabited by gypsies and mummies who all wrote in hydraulics. They lived in the Sarah Dessert. The climate of the Sarah is such that all the inhabitants have to live elsewhere. Moses led the Hebrew slaves to the Red Sea where they made unleavened bread, which is bread made without any ingredients. Moses went up on Mount Cyanide to get the ten commandos. He died before he ever reached Canada but the commandos made it. Solomon had three hundred wives and seven hundred porcupines. He was a actual hysterical figure as well as being in the bible. It sounds like he was sort of busy too. The Greeks were a highly sculptured people, and without them we wouldnt have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a young female moth. Socrates was a famous old Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. He later died from an overdose of wedlock which is apparently poisonous. After his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline. In the first Olympic games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled biscuits, and threw the java. The games were messier then than they show on TV now. Julius Caesar extinguished himself on the battlefields of Gaul. The Ides of March murdered him because they thought he was going to be made the king. Dying, he gasped out "Same to you, Brutus." Joan of Arc was burnt to a steak and was canonized by Bernard Shaw for reasons I dont really understand. The English and French still have problems. Queen Elizabeth was the "Virgin Queen," as a queen she was a success. When she exposed herself before her troops they all shouted "hurrah" and that was the end of the fighting for a long while. It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Guttenberg invented removable type and the Bible. Another important invention was the circulation of blood. Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure because he invented cigarettes and started smoking. Sir Francis Drake circumcised the world with a 100 foot clipper which was very dangerous to all his men. The greatest writer of the Renaissance was William Shakespeare. He was born in the year 1564, supposedly on his birthday. He never made much money and is famous only because of his plays. He wrote tragedies, comedies, and hysterectomies, all in Islamic pentameter. Writing at the same time as Shakespeare was Miguel Cervantes. He wrote Donkey Hote. The next great author was John Milton. Milton wrote Paradise Lost. Since then no one ever found it. Delegates from the original 13 states formed the Contented Congress. Thomas Jefferson, a Virgin, and Benjamin Franklin were two singers of the Declaration of Independence. Franklin discovered electricity by rubbing two cats backward and also declared, " A horse divided against itself cannot stand." He was a naturalist for sure. Franklin died in 1790 and is still dead. Abraham Lincoln became America's greatest Precedent. Lincoln's mother died in infancy, and he was born in a log cabin which he built with his own hands. Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves by signing the Emasculation Proclamation. On the night of April 14, 1865, Lincoln went to the theater and got shot in his seat by one of the actors in a moving picture show. They believe the assinator was John Wilkes Booth, a supposedly insane actor. This ruined Booth's career. Johann Bach wrote a great many musical compositions and had a large number of children. In between he practiced on an old spinster which he kept up in his attic. Bach died from 1750 to the present. Bach was the most famous composer in the world and so was Handel. Handel was half German, half Italian, and half English. He was very large. Bethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf that he wrote loud music and became the father of rock and roll. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died for this. The nineteenth century was a time of a great many thoughts and inventions. People stopped reproducing by hand and started reproducing by machine. The invention of the steamboat caused a network of rivers to spring up. Cyrus McCormick invented the McCormick raper, which did the work of a hundred men. Louis Pasteur discovered a cure for rabbits but I dont know why. Charles Darwin was a naturalist. He wrote the Organ of the Species. It was very long. People got upset about it and had trials to see if it was really true. He sort of said God's days were not just 24 hours but without watches who knew anyhow? I dont get it. Madman Curie discovered radio. She was the first woman to do what she did. Other women have become scientists since her But they didnt get to find radios because they were already taken. Karl Marx was one of the Marx Brothers. The other three were in the movies. Karl made speeches and started revolutions. Someone in the family had to have a job, I guess. ==============================
