umm none of it I guess since it is all of God's will so to change or take away from it would be to go against that which is righteousness however if you backed me into a corner I would have to say the commandments about sex since it's probably the single hardest commandment to follow im my opinion. However if God re-wrote the bible that would make him a liar sooo then we would have a hard time trusting him

Yep, leviticus serves as a bit of a description.
Also, I believe theres a word you should ook into called "Sanhedrin".
I don't think "an eye for an eye" actually happened and it seems the punishments are far to severe for the crimes back in the day.[/quote]
Subjective and arbitrary opinion. Provide me something more objective please.

22 “Now suppose two men are fighting, and in the process they accidentally strike a pregnant woman so she gives birth prematurely. If no further injury results, the man who struck the woman must pay the amount of compensation the woman’s husband demands and the judges approve. 23 But if there is further injury, the punishment must match the injury: a life for a life, 24 an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, a foot for a foot, 25 a burn for a burn, a wound for a wound, a bruise for a bruise."
Thats the context, its actually very fair if you think about it. And so while eyes being gouged out may not have happened so often, fights would have so yes it was relevant.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me = Genocide
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image = Genocide
Doesn't really seem fair as a punishment in my opinion as genocide in "God's" eyes equals killing entire cities of men, women, children and animals or you can keep some girls alive for raping in some cases so hows that a fair punishment for one persons actions?
Just Imagine if that happened today.
