Being that we are not under the Mosaic law anymore....Most of the things on the blackboard are not relevant anymore. He would know that IF he only studied the bible.
I was about to make the same comment as match has made. All but one of these prohibitions are from the earliest books of the Hebrews. Only the no cursing rule is from the New Testament. That being said, I do avoid pork and shellfish, and am glad I do so. Here in Vancouver in the 1990s anyone who ate pork products had a real possibility of eating recycled dead prostitutes thanks to the infamous Picton feeding their corpses to his pigs (and then selling the ham etc to stores.) And to me, shellfish are just basically giant insects that rummage around the ocean bottom eating carrion. Yum.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

If we're no longer under the Mosaic law, why are so many conservative Christians eager to quote the stuff in the Torah about not being gay?
