Why not? "don't take isolated verses and make them mean something else, just to "illustrate a point"!" It is done every Sunday in the pulpits across the world. Prime example is the fact that the largest Christian denomination in this country is the Southern Baptist and they didn't have any problem isolating a few verses to justify slavery and thereby create their association of believers in slavery. Lets not forget the fastest growing denomination in this country and their isolation of a few verses to promote and justify bigamy. Here I'm speaking of the great church domiciled in Utah. Would you care for a few more, or does this "illustrate a point" in a clear manner? Bottomline for me! Give me that urine over the cow dung, anytime! And for the setting on fire of the foxes, these poor critters can't get a break. Look now at the controversy of the British fox hunters and the efforts to ban the fox hunt ritual in that country. I guess their main defense is that if the Bible ok'ed setting them on fire, what is wrong in chasing them down with hounds. Oh! The ways we justify the killing of something.
