Found a new one today. Leviticus 21:18-20, while not explicitly condemning anyone, bars the following individuals from "approaching the altar":
- The blind
- The handicapped
- People with flat noses (?!?)
- People with broken hands or feet
- Humpbacks
- Dwarves
- People with cataracts or astigmatism
- People with scurvy
- People with scabs
- People who "hath his stones broken," which according to at least one website I found means having crushed nuts
You'd think God would take pitty on a handicapped dwarf who had a crippling testicle injury, but I guess that's not Yahweh's style.
Maybe you missed the best one? L21:18 'or any thing superfluous'
