How to get a bigot to shut up…

(This is part of my “beginner series” for the locals, but for you experienced Atheists, it’s just a cool thing to remember.)   Just for fun, this has been out here for awhile and belongs in my  list of things to shut up bigots”:  God Hates Shrimp. (http://www.godhatesshrimp.com)   Yes, you heard it here….maybe not first.  But indeed for as much as the bigots out there trot out Leviticus 18:22 as “the” reason why homosexuality is a “sin”, we have to remember that that whole section of the bible had a laundry list of things that as a follower of God, you’re not supposed to do.  So, indeed somebody found Leviticus 11:9-12 where eating anything that isn’t really a fish is evil:

9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat. 
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you: 
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination. 
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

However last time I used this phrase, the idiot/Christian I used this against replied, “well, things were different then….the culture was different”, and I replied how is it different and why Leviticus 18:22 is picked out as something you follow to the letter, but Leviticus 11:9-12 isn’t?  She used circular logic, again, pointing to the Bible saying so.  So when I left her, I simply tossed that back out at her, “tell me when you’re going to protest at Red Lobster and I’ll take you seriously”.
