I'm not a Christian at all. 0.o
PS. Never follow the biblical rules if you intend to have children. The punishment for disrespecting your parents is death by stoning. OH WAIT! THAT'S BRUTALLY MURDERING SOMEONE FOR THEIR CRIMES!
Old testament. Not christians. At least not protestants.
Having been raised as a lutheran, I can assure you that is not taught.
Your point is utterly invalid, even though you have caps lock on.
Obviously there are crazy ritualistic things in the bible. How often do you see women killed for cheating on their husbands, and have it done in the name of god, and have that be socially acceptable? Never.
There are a lot of things in the Old Testament like that. Christians focus on the teachings of Jesus, however.
P.S. I assumed that your claim was true, but now looking back at it, it seems ridiculous. Post the quote from the bible.
