Dear Dr. Laura:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding
God's law. I have learned a great deal from you, and I 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 him that Leviticus 18:22
clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do
need some advice from you, however, regarding some of
the other specific laws and how to best follow them.
When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it
creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The
problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not
pleasing to them. How should I deal with this?
I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as it suggests
in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think
would be a fair price for her?
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 offense.
Lev. 25:44 states that I may buy slaves from the nations
that are around us. A friend of mine claims that this applies
to Mexicans but not Canadians. Can you clarify?
I have a neighbor 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?
A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is
an abomination (Lev. 10:10), it is a lesser abomination than
homosexuality. I have tried eating oysters, and I don't
agree. Can you settle this?
Lev. 20:20 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
prescription glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or
is there some wiggle room here?
I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am
confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us
that God's word is eternal and unchanging.
from,
an educated american
