Don't forget the Song of Solomon from the Old Testament! Excerpts below:
Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. (Song of Solomon 2:3)
While the previous passage refers to fellatio, the following can be read as a metaphor for cunnilingus: Awake, O north wind, and come, wind of the south; make my garden breathe out fragrance, let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its choice fruits! (Song of Solomon 4:16)
And again, the Song of Solomon urges lovers to eat and drink freely of one another’s bodies: I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk: eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved. (Song of Solomon 5:1)

The scriptures are our way to see what sin has brought upon our forefathers, and to know that the sins we commit will bring the same cures on us and our children to third and forth generation. With all the sickness and disease in this world today what, I can't understand is how people not read and believe the scriptures. The warning was given to us how to live what to eat who to have relations with and how to stay clean by not touching the unclean things.
ST D's have increased in the last 20 years to an unbelievable number and none of them are curable. You can take medications to hide the symptoms, but to actually have it cured it can't be done. The world rejects what the Creator has told us do for our bodies to keep them alive. So the curses after 6,000 years are getting worse not better. Look at all the wars when we are told by our loving heavenly Father do not murder. The school shootings have graduated from high school to college campuses. Why is that we can't believe what was told to us by the prophets it's coming to pass before our very eyes.
How can you say this warning is X rated when it is meant to save our lives?
The TV shows today are worse than the scriptures. They teach even the very young to sin against their parents by disobeying and going their own way.

You just described mankind. The Bible is Real about the condition of man. It doesn't cover up anything.
incest...beastiality, homosexuality, lust, false prophecies, fairy tales...and more...

you're honestly appropriate that there are some areas in there that incorporate solid ethical classes for us.not very many, yet some. there is significantly greater "solid ethical classes" in merely approximately any e book or action picture released interior the final 60 years. the version is, none of those works declare to be "divinely inspired" and as such used as justification for a manner of life which seems innocuous on the floor, yet that's divisive, misogynistic, homophobic and anti-psychological at its center.

Only idiots and simpletons believe that nonsense.
The Holy Word of THE ONLY Living God(That is the Bible) is absolute Truth.

Its a good historical book. A lot of insight into an ancient time we wouldn't have otherwise. But as a basis for an entire society and way of life....
no thank you.

clearly you are a lost child if you really do believe the crap you just wrote.everything which the bible speaks of is to warn people,the world of what we are now living.learn from the mistakes and what was wrong in the past. it is so very easy to laugh,criticize we forget to be kind,gentle and loving to one another.
