Keep in mind, I mostly know the Hebrew Bible - so whatever translated version you've read may have softened up the "nasty" bits.
Solomon still rejected God and worshipped Greek idols.
I think you picked a bad example of "traditional values" the Bible promotes.

Who ever said the Bible is a book of rules to follow verbatim ?
I went to Catholic School for 12 years and never did they ever tell us that the Bible was a book of "rules".

Supermodel Stephanie Seymour Does Sexy Photo Shoot...With Her Sons (PHOTO)

This woman's actions are bizarre and sick. Why would a "mother" think it's acceptable to pose this way with her own children? Some people have stated that it's ok, because her sons are gay. Interestingly, her gay sons were exposed to "fashion" and playing dress-up at the age of 4. But regardless of their homosexual lifestyle, this sort of thing should not be acceptable.
I don't "think" you "understand" what "quotation marks" are for. Whether you "agree" with it or "not", she is "still" a "mother" and it is "still" a "photo shoot."

It has and toxic Western culture is to blame. Fortunately we have individuals like Vladimir Putin standing tall

I am more troubled by her having two separate gay sons than the picture.

it is not homophobic to think these photos are weird and gross. has nothing to do with the boys' sexuality and everything to do with her being their mother. what a freakin weirdo she is.

Ahh; it's been awhile since we've had a Putin admirer. Because Russia doesn't have soft porn or any porn, right?

I'm curious how the OP knows Harry is gay? As far as I can find, only 1 of her 4 children is an out homosexual.

Are you suggesting the Torah doesn't have this?

Thanks for bringing our attention to it - she is still very attractive. With that said, I find it amusing that you are practically promoting it by linking it and then providing commentary. Just like they wanted.

[good job!! ]

Yeah I love how the anti-christians just love to blame the old testament horrors on christianity.
I understand that the old testament is part of the scriptures, but christianity is really founded on the New testament and there's another religion that has the old testament at its core.
