Kristof Cannot Grasp Understanding Of Scripture In Quiz



Nicolas D.Kristof



 Harold Camping the so called Evangelist who was wrong on the Rapture last night should be touted out there in the lamestream media as the fraud that he is.

  Now in the same fashion New York Times Oped writer Nicolas D.Kristof this morning uses his rant I mean alleged OPED piece to quiz us Americans on his title "Religion and Sex Quiz."Thus making himself meaning Kristof a bigger self absorbed liberal idiot than he already is.
  He does this by using a professor's BS "This quiz, and the answers below, draw from a new book, “Unprotected Texts: The Bible’s Surprising Contradictions about Sex and Desire.” It’s by Jennifer Wright Knust, a Bible scholar at Boston University who is also an ordained American Baptist pastor."
Funny he doesnot use God's the Holy Bible at first although he does later on in his piece of crap.But when he uses the Bible
        Here is the set up of the quiz:
                
                             1. The Bible’s position on abortion is:
                                                            a. Never mentioned.
                                                            b. To forbid it along with all forms of artificial birth control.
                                                            c. Condemnatory, except to save the life of the mother.
             Kristof's answer 1. A. Abortion is never mentioned as such.A more suitable answer But look up in the bible Luke 1:44 about John The Baptist in his Mother Elizabeth's womb.
                             2. The Bible suggests “marriage” is:
                                a. The lifelong union of one man and one woman.
                                b. The union of one man and up to 700 wives.
                                c. Often undesirable, because it distracts from service to the Lord.
             Kristof's answer 2. A, B and C. The Bible limits women to one husband, but other than that is all over the map. Mark 10 envisions a lifelong marriage of one man and one woman. But King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines (I Kings 11:3). And Matthew (Matthew 19:10-12) and St. Paul (I Corinthians 7) both seem to suggest that the ideal approach is to remain celibate and avoid marriage if possible, while focusing on serving God. Jesus (Matthew 19:12) even seems to suggest that men make themselves eunuchs, leading the early church to ban enthusiasts from self-castration.Here is a better answer from the Bible Gensis 2:18 and 21-24.
    3. The Bible says of homosexuality:
a. Leviticus describes male sexual pairing as an abomination.
b. A lesbian should be stoned at her father’s doorstep.
c. There’s plenty of ambiguity and no indication of physical intimacy, but some readers point to Ruth and Naomi’s love as suspiciously close, or to King David declaring to Jonathan: “Your love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.” (II Samuel 1:23-26).
  Kristof's answer 3. A and C. As for stoning on a father’s doorstep, that is the fate not of lesbians but of non-virgin brides (Deuteronomy 22:13).A better answer Romans 1:26-28 the Apostle Paul makes it clear as a cloudless sky.
   Question 4 was not worth commenting on due to the vileness of the question.
  As for the rest of Kristof's piece he cannot fathom the disservice that he does to God as the other fraud Harold Camping has done to others.
