Reply #78: The Christian God disapproves of homosexuality

[WillieWoohah]

Leviticus 18, verses 22, 23
22: Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Leviticus 20, verse 13
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.

Case Closed. Seems pretty black and white to me.

I'm all for "figurative" interpretations of the Bible concerning miracles and prophecies etc, but there's a certain point beyond which you can't stretch it.

This is one of the reasons I'm not a Christian. If a particular religion is unambiguously anti-gay (like Christianity), and your belief system is tolerant of gays, why not just leave the religion?
