  • Because social norms have advanced to a point where most people know that those rules are wrong. Also, the adherents would end up in prison.
  • Because shrimp is tasty.
  • Because religion is a widely accepted term for mass delusion
  • because religion was meant to be cherry picked. People simply follow the parts they like and "interpret" an out for the stuff they don't want to follow.
  • The answer that has been given to me is that once Jesus was born mankind lived under grace, and under grace those old laws were no longer necessary. The reality is that in the early days of Christianity in order to win more converts many of the rules were done away with because gentiles would not follow them.
  • Jesus summed up the Law with this: (Matthew 22:36-39)
  • As a christian i feel it is still neccesary to abide by the moral laws wrirten in deuteronomy, however many of them (like abstaining from certain foods) were ultimately introduced to get the jews to a certain place where it was the best time for jesus tk be introduced. We should keep the laws pertaining to morality like the 10 commandmenrs, but some of the old laws were symbolic (like the law that you should not muzzle an ox while it works, which is symbolic for the truth that pastors who work hard should not be deprived of a wage). Salvation is gained in a new way now, through Jesus Christ and therefore, though the laws should be kept, the emphasis but be on jesus, and we must count on him to make us able to keep these laws rather than trying to keeo this through our own power. We must rely on the power of the Holy Spirit to make us able to keep the laws. As the bible says not a single word shall fall from the old commandments and that jesus came not to destroy the law but to confirm all that was written in it. Jesus is the way. We must count on him and his Good example and his flesh and his body which we recieve through communion (the bread and wine) and the other sacriments like baptism, confession which he brought about in order to be saved, and in doing all this He will make us able to keep the commandments. Hope this helps. GOD bless you today and fkrever P.s. keep searching for the truth :)
