#2 It would be better to say that parts of modern society have no place in the Bible.

#4 Agree! The human experience, either good or bad, predates the written word. The Bible is not the problem. "Modern Society" is the problem.

#5 The word "modern" is not being use appropriately here.
A more appropriate word for "modern" that matches reality in describing some parts of English society would be something like "degenerate" (society) or "decadent" (society).
I am very thankful my ancestors immigrated from Europe long ago for a better life in the USA.
I would like to remind my brothers in England that they would be speaking German or Russian or Japanese if it were not for the blood of some brave Americans who believed in scripture as the word of God.
It is unfortunate that some Americans have become "modern", like the 12 Republicans who just voted with all 50 Democrats to force same sex marriage on the whole country.

#7 As I understand the so-called Defense of Marriage Act, it willbe illegal for churches to refuse to perform same sex marriages, or at least the refused couple would be able to sue. And they would win. There is no religious exemption from this act. Given the current Supreme Court, I hold little hope that the law will be struck down on 1st amendment grounds.

#8 I understand the whole (sp?) Job and his daughters thing is being socialized.
