Jesse lets look at where in the bible it says homosexuallity is wrong
Leviticus 20:13 clearly states "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth
with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely
be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
OK so your right, Leviticus is a bit of an odd one though. Do you agree all
these laws should be followed too ? If not, you might be considered by some
to be hypocritical.
Don't let cattle graze with other kinds of Cattle (Leviticus 19:19)
Don't have a variety of crops on the same field. (Leviticus 19:19)
Don't wear clothes made of more than one fabric (Leviticus 19:19)
Don't cut your hair nor shave. (Leviticus 19:27)
Any person who curseth his mother or father, must be killed. (Leviticus
20:9)
If a man cheats on his wife, or vise versa, both the man and the woman must
die. (Leviticus 20:10).
If a man sleeps with his father's wife... both him and his father's wife is
to be put to death. (Leviticus 20:11)
If a man sleeps with his wife and her mother they are all to be burnt to
death. (Leviticus 20:14)
If a man or woman has sex with an animal, both human and animal must be
killed. (Leviticus 20:15-16).
If a man has sex with a woman on her period, they are both to be "cut off
from their people" (Leviticus 20:18)
Psychics, wizards, and so on are to be stoned to death. (Leviticus 20:27)
If a priest's daughter is a whore, she is to be burnt at the stake.
(Leviticus 21:9)
People who have flat noses, or is blind or lame, cannot go to an altar of
God (Leviticus 21:17-18)
Anyone who curses or blasphemes God, should be stoned to death by the
community. (Leviticus 24:14-16)
Don't let cattle graze with other kinds of Cattle (Leviticus 19:19)
You are of course fully entitled to your views, but you have to accept the
views of others. Lots of parts of the old testament are difficult to fully
understand in todays world. Lots of the laws and commandments are
contradicted by a more rational stance in the New Testament. Rational
judgement is needed :)
and yes I consider myself to be a christian and no I dont ever feel the need
to call my gay friends immoral, hateful, bigoted, sexist, discriminatory,
intolerant, deviant, or even racist (well occasionally a bit sexist, but
only as a joke).
