Wow - it is great to see someone who knows and accepts the Biblical Criticism.1. Ezekiel 16:49 - I'd watch myself if I were you about Sodom and Gomorrah, one of the reasons (according to Ezekiel the main reason) for the destruction of Sodom was not homosexual behavior, but social injustice.
2. Jesus didn't forgive the adulterer, you're quoting John 7:53-8:11 .... which is taken out of most bibles, because turns out it wasn't in the origional Version of John, it was a much much later addition, when I say much later I mean 5th Century later, there are various earlier Complete versinos of John without that story, which is why scholars relegate that to the same area they relevate the short and long endings of mark.
Cheers.
Maybe we can do a thread concerning the critique of the Bible.
