Orthodox Judaism is not what you think. Divorces are granted and divorced women are not shun. There are actual rules that you have to "satisfy" your wife. On many levels, women are considered closer to G-d, etc.

And in regards to gays - no it's not accepted but considering the bible does not accept it, I don't know what Judaeo-Christian religions do accept it. However, there are other rules in Judaism. To embarass or hurt someone publicly is the equivalent of killing them. There can be quotes taken out of the Torah saying bad things, but someone who truly understands knows what else is written and doesn't take things out of context. There is a movie on homosexuality and Orthodox Judaism called Trembling Before G-d if you want to read it.

Rudey, is that a book or a movie? Your post confused me a little, but I'd definitely be willing to read/watch it.
