Question regarding Leviticus chapter 18?
In Leviticus 18:26, it states "But you shall keep my statutes and my ordinances and do none of these abominations...". Is this verse saying that all of the laws mentioned previously in chapter 18 are abominations?
I mis-stated what I was trying to say. The laws themselves are not abominations, I definitely know that. But, are the acts they describe abominations?
If it is a case that all of the acts described in chapter 18 are abominations, why do Christians only pick out homosexuality as being an abomination? Where is the outrage for guys who have sex with their wife/girlfriend while she is menstrating (verse 19)?

26 But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the aliens living among you must not do any of these detestable things, 27 for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. 28 And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
No, its saying that the things described by God to NOT do are abominations.

No. The God Yahweh meant that His people were to forget how they lived while slaves of Egypt and now follow His newly established Mosaic Laws. These laws were to be followed by His nation for all future generations to come, which today's generation is included.
