Pete's BLOG - Day 26,195. Still more Leviticus laws.

Today is Wednesday, August 8, 2012. A decent day temp wise - we even had 331 drops of rain this morning.
Pete's stats for today: 10 minutes of yoga, 10 minutes of weight lifting and a 50 minute walk = 2.5 miles for an August total of 18.7 miles. My weight was 162.2 pounds.

Here are some more Leviticus laws from 1200 BC by Moses.

19:33-34. Do not take advantage of foreigners in your land; do not wrong them. They must be treated like any other citizen; love them as yourself, for remember that you too were foreigners in the land of Egypt. I am Jehovah your God.

(I wonder if this applies to the Mexicans working in the vegetable and fruit fields of the southern and southwestern states of the U.S.
How about the packing houses of the midwest? How about the innocent, peaceful, nonviolent Muslims living in the U.S. How about the Sikhs who were massacred last week in Wisconsin? For some reason we never hear about these two verses from the ultraconservative right-wingers.
