I would like to hear everyone weigh in on this, but especially theists.
According to the Qu'ran and the Bible (Leviticus 20:13), this sort of thing is fully justified in the eyes of God/Allah.
Science tells us that a person's sexual preference is largely due to a genetic predisposition. Since we know that, it pretty much means that God created homosexuals, so why does he hate them so much?
It appears to me that Muslims are being better Muslims because they don't just carry their book around, taking only parts of it seriously. Muslims are doing what their book tells them to do. Most Christians, while they hate homosexuals, aren't trying to put them to death for having gay sex.
How can Christians stand behind the Bible, and yet not follow it's words? I am not at all saying that I want Christians to start putting homosexuals to death, but what I am saying is if you're not going to do it, take it out of the bible. It would be a dangerous thing if someone young/impressionable, or perhaps mentally ill were to read this and take it seriously.
If you're going to call it the word of God, and not do what the word of God says, then why cling to it? Why defend it?
