Oh dont give them a hemmorage...here it is in short form...the Old book doesnt count...unless they need to refute something an Atheists says...then they can use either text.
But if you need a link for good stuff in the new...well here ya go...lots of party articles here too.

If it is all too complicated for you to follow, I would suggest The Ten Commandments". That is the most important part of the old testament anyways and you can't go wrong there.

All of them Lady! No where in the bible does it say "this is literal" and "this is figurative", best bet play it safe and follow every law.
Unless you believe it's all garbage, then just use common sense, and have sympathy and empathy for your fellow man.
I believe path #2 leads to true enlightenment

That is a difficult question to answer. As a Christian, I believe they are all true, but I realize that a lot of people don't think that way. I suggest you find some spiritual advisor that you trust and ask them.

The old testament is true and all the offering they gave were cancelled out once and for all when JESUS died for our sins. Thats why we are to ask for forgiveness everyday because we sin in thought or action everyday.

If you are a Jew living in OT times, they all apply. If you are a Genetile living in OT times, none apply.
If you are a Christian now, the 10 commandments are good rules to live by. And if your not a Christian, ignore it all.

It's not that they are off limits to read. You just have to read them and say it was good.
God Kills The Firstborn Sons of Egypt.
Wow, that was good.
