A LETTER  TO  DR.  LAURA 

 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 
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. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination 
than  homosexuality.  I don't agree.  Can you settle this? 

 Lev. 21:20 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 reading 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. 

                                           Sincerely, 

                                              Farrell Till
