Description
It could also be titled "ANTI STUPIDITY", and, yes, this is true the bible says SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT NOT REALLY!Lev 20:13 can be interpreted/translated as saying that being Gay is bad but it also can be translated as two men shall not sleep together in a married woman's bed. Unfortunately many Christians don't understand that both translations are equally valid, it is just that the translators think that it means one rather than the other.
Further, Jesus never truly comments on homosexuality, but many to most Christians ignore what he says about divorce and praying in public.
And also, it couldn't have been possible, because homosexuality wasn't even defined until the 1800's, thankyouverymuch. But how did we get confused? The 1 Corinthians problem is, it doesn't actually read homosexual. Conservative Bibles translate the Greek word "arsenokoitai" as "homosexual", and the word actually means "temple prostitute" - not quite the same thing.
(: I think I win, whether you like it or not.
Oh, and if the Government is not supposed to interfere with religion, then why does it reserve the right to make marriage between only men and women? Shouldn't that be the choice of whatever their faith is? (Not like it matters with the newly government-owned GM)

I'm not sure if you'll see this or not, but the part where it says, "man shall not lay with man the way he lays with woman" was actually supposed to be, "man shall not lay with boy the way he lays with woman". It was lost in the translation from Greek to English.
Hope this helped.

Someone needs to serve shrimp cocktails at some sort of gay rights debate, then drop this on any homophobes in the crowd. And then post the reaction on Youtube.
Seriously, about half the people out there against gay rights haven't read the Bible thoroughly or take it's verses wayΒ out of context and/or neglect the original, unaltered translation. I'm pretty sure the Westboro "Baptist" "Church" doesn't even know what a Bible is. Also may want to take into consideration that a lot of homophobes are themselves deeply closeted gays.
No idea why us Christians, having our entire belief system based on the loveΒ that God and his son Jesus have for mankind, and our teachings being mainly about being kind and loving to our fellow man, cannot swallow the idea of two people of the same gender being inΒ love with each other. Boggles the mind, it does.

Nope, it doesn't say being gay is wrong. The bible has been mistranslated for hateful uses.

Not a very good book then is it? I mean the gods omniscient claim sort of falls to the ground when he didn't see that coming.
And yes the bible does say homosexuality is wrong.
18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. (Leviticus 18:22 KJV)
20:13 "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." (Leviticus 20:13 KJV)
If you question these passages because you cannot misinterpreter them, then you must question everything else in that book.

But a gay guy doesn't lie with womankind. So there isn't a comparison as to how he lies with a man and woman. Also, how do you know it doesn't mean to lie, as in to tell a lie? And it doesn't say anything about lesbian couples... hm.

The bible is written by homophobic primitives. I suspect they didn't think to include women as lesbians would not attack their sexual identity.

For a religon where it is based on treating thy neighbour as thyself, they must really hate themselfs.

It also says that if a husband dies without getting any sons, his wife must sleep with his brother until they get a son. So excuse me

Another person who doesn't understand that Christians are not bound by the laws of the old testament. We follow the new testament why don't people understand that? For people who accuse us of not understanding our own Religion none of you seem to either.
As far as you winning if you think your winning your deluded.

what verse does in the bible does it say not to eat shellfish? and i couldnt agree more! LOVE!

Actually, Jesus do comment on homosexuality. He talks about eunuchs, so it could be also understood by the men who are incapable to sleep with the women. He says that some people are born that way, and there's no sin there. And the some are made eunuchs by different people (I think, ex. raped teenagers) and theres no sin in them either, only in people, who made them that way. But theres a sin if heterosexual man decides himself to be an eunuch (so I guess if he is having sex with other man only for fun and curiosity).
Also, according to theologists, the Good Samaritan from famous story told by Jesus to his students, is eunuch/gay.

Oh, trust me when i say this, most of us DO know what we're attacking, we are attacking sin, not the sinners. And also believed me when i say that i do not mind gays, they have the potential to be awesome people, i just do not want to see them be punished for something like this....
π: 0 β©: 1
Then why cant people leave the actual 'sinners' alone? Why do they start rallies and brandish anti-gay signs? I know what you mean by hate the 'sin, not the sinner' thing but... I just don't get all the hate directed to the actual homosexuals?
π: 0 β©: 0
Yeah, but I think it's indirect. I'm pretty sure it also says not to eat beef or pork.

i particularly like how the bible says that "thou shall have no other gods before me," and "i am a jealous god."
it doesn't say that there aren't any other gods, or that you can't worship them. it just says that the big cheese is first, because he's needy.
nah, i love heavenly father. or the ultimate whatever the hell. or them, or him it singular plural none bleh bleh blu.
i love the little mascot animal thing. so cute.

Whoever said all gays/lesbians/bi's are Christian/Catholic/etc. anyways? Maybe they're atheist.
I agree with you, and most people are claiming that all gays/lesbians/bi's are mean/heartless but really, how can they claim that when they also say that everyone is different and unique?
π: 0 β©: 0
Well, I don't eat shrimp. I don't eat shellfish. And I don't hate gays. BUT... I hate SIN, not SINNER. Think of it.

(Romans 1:26-32)"Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know Godβs righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them."
