Either that or you'll be directed to some other scripture that contradicts but takes precedence.
That was referring to the descendants of Aaron, where the priests were chosen from. The priests had much more stringent rules than everyone else, and had to be the embodiment of perfection / holiness, blemishes were symbolic of sin / imperfection.

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
