Confusing , homosexual sex Is talked about but, not homosexual love in a monogamous relationship, from a scientific view homosexual sex is condemned because in those times we needed people to breed and carry on blood lines and the human species as a whole , so it was condemned along with masturbation to encourage the spreading seed , same reason other religions suggest having multiple wives , and basically we don't need to breed a lot of people anymore for our armies and fields so these sort of passages aren't needed anymore , along with various other ones that are outdated and ignored for various reasons, alot of it just isn't relevant anymore like stoning your wife because she's not a "maid" when you got married ,along with a bunch of the other screwed up stuff that's in the bible.
i usually make no efforts in arguing the religious aspects of such things with people, as things like the bible are open to massive interpretations, there are over 3,000 different denominations of Christians alone, does that mean thy holy father and Jesus are sending the other 2,999 types of Christians to hell because they interpreted the scripture wrong? Personally, I don't think so, i'm in the line of thought with DR.Coffee that all gods/religions are the same, And the inherent teachings are all the same, which is
"don't be a d1ck" Dr.Coffee is obviously failing at this though, so i don't really think our line of thought is really all that same in the end...haha
