544759
The law of "primogeniture" (no first "g") prevented the dispersal of family property by allowing only the eldest son to inherit all his father's property.  It was up to the eldest son to distribute the property (or NOT distribute it as he saw fit) to the rest of the family.

Magna Carta (Latin for "Great Charter", literally "Great Paper"), also called Magna Carta Libertatum ("Great Charter of Freedoms"), is an English charter originally issued in 1215. Magna Carta was the most significant early influence on the long historical process that led to the rule of constitutional law today. Magna Carta was originally created because of disagreements between Pope Innocent III, King John and his English barons about the rights of the King. Magna Carta required the king to renounce certain rights, respect certain legal procedures and accept that the will of the king could be bound by law.

(m)\n\nHemophilia was recognized, though not named, in ancient times. The Talmud, a collection of Jewish Rabbinical writings from the 2nd century AD, stated that male babies did not have to be circumcised if two brothers had already died from the procedure.\n\nThe Arab physician Albucasis, who lived in the 12th century, wrote of a family whose males died of bleeding after minor injuries.\n\nThen, in 1803, a Philadelphia physician named Dr. John Conrad Otto wrote an account of "a hemorrhagic disposition existing in certain families". He recognized that the condition was hereditary and affected males. He traced the disease back through three generations to a woman who had settled near Plymouth, New Hampshire, in 1720.\n\nThe word "hemophilia" first appears in a description of the condition written by Hopff at the University of Zurich in 1828.

I believe it was the 15th or 16th century France.  And that was only for the upperclass.  In fact restrooms in any traditional sense were rare until the early 19th century anywhere.  The were referred to as bath houses or water closets before that point.  They were universal as well, jsut more seperated from the general public.\n\nAncient Rome just had holes in a rock bench along a long wall.  Men and women alike sat (or stood) side by side to do their business.  \n\nIt is thought that seperate restrooms were used to encourage chastity.  Women were innocent and should not be exposed to where men relieved themselves.  They were entirely to dainty to handle that.  Plus clothing was a factor.  Women had a lot more on.  These were days before tampons as well, so that created whole new problems at certain, ahem, times.

He wanted a divorce. Plain and simple. Hence the birth the Church of  England. He had added power with controling the Church of England because the Pope gave him the title "Defender of Faith". And he wanted his wife Catherine to give him an heir . She only gave him a daughter.\n\nSource Wikipedia\nHenry maintained a strong preference for the traditional Catholic practices and, during his reign, Protestant reformers were unable to make many changes to the practices of the Church of England. Under his son, Edward VI, the church became theologically more radical, before rejoining the Roman church during the reign of Queen Mary I, in 1555. The settlement under Elizabeth I (from 1558) of a mildly protestant, catholic, apostolic, and established church (i.e. subject to and part of the state) that accommodates a wide range of theological positions has essentially been its character since.

The laws you are quoting are from Levitical law.  We wouldn't understand them in our 21st century culture, but they were necessary is keeping the society that was present more than three millennia ago in check, as all laws do.  If you could see what was permissable in societies surrounding the Israelites, you'd probably be horrified; infant sacrifice, for instance.  \n\nThe New Testament, being composed 1200-1400 years later, takes a different view of the law; as society has changed, it needed more than laws to keep it in check, but someone to embody and fulfil the law; hence Jesus.  Even with that, though, sin is still there and certain practices (homosexuality and witchcraft, for example) are still forbidden.  But they don't have the same command of death as a result.\n\nWhat you're referencing is Levitical law without the presence of Jesus to atone for the sins of the people.  Since I assume you didn't invent this list yourself, I would hypothesize it's actually used as a criticism of Jewish culture; or a particular figure like Dr. Laura.
