They seem to think the bible is anti-gay.
My "fellow Christians"??? Seriously, what part of "personal and unique" do you not understand? Shall I lump you in with some asshole atheists?
Form you own opinion if you can and if you can't, take someone else's opinion and pass it off as your own here, in THIS thread...
.
But nothing to say about the passages quoted........
Not much of a refutation there laddie...... to be expected though

I didn't bother to view that link, but I should point out that the Bible is not silent on the issue (as Zen seems to think), but nor is it the most important issue either. God destroys Sodom in Genesis, we aren't told specifically why (at least not until Ezekiel 16:49 and it has nothing to do with sexuality). We don't find out anywhere in Genesis that homosexuality is a sin, and in Exodus God doesn't give a commandment to Moses prohibiting it. It's not until Leviticus that God declares it sinful. So it certainly wouldn't seem to be the most important sin, but that said, it is still a sin, and it is made clear in the Bible.
Please don't misquote me, I said that jesus was silent on the issue of homosexuality, not the bible.
And don't use Leviticus to condemn homosexuality unless you want your head handed to you on a platter.
