Subject: Just a thought Leviticus 20:13

Just a thought Leviticus 20:13
For those who haven't heard, Washington State just passed two new laws - Same sex marriage and legalized marijuana.
The fact that same sex marriage and marijuana were legalized on the same day makes perfect biblical sense because Leviticus 20:13 says :
"If a man lies with another man they should be stoned."
Evidently, We just hadn't interpreted it correctly before.

Funny way to put it, but no, Leviticus doesn't say that.

"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."

That's the King James. All the bibles in my collection read the same or very similar. None say "stoned."
