Hey, there are gay evangelicals– they think the meaning of the Leviticus line is just essentially. "don't objectify a man.(or rape him.)"
Anyway, welcome.
That's title's mostly jest, but it is true that my views are not necessarily those of mainstream christianity.
For example, I do not believe that the existence of the universe is proof of God. The existence of the universe may be proof of the universe, but it does not necessitate that God exist to create it.
Moreover, I do not believe that there is proof that any gods exist. There might be proof somewhere, but I have not discovered it. In this sense, you could call me an agnostic theist. Also in the sense that I am skeptical of whether it is possible to know whether god exists.
We could dismiss specific gods depending on the characteristics, but a Deist God for example would be hard to refute concretely... but then again a Deist God is functionally identical to that universe where there never was a god.
Heh. Most evangelicals, even gay evangelicals, might find that rather heretical.
And, yes, I am aware that there are many gay evangelicals. No offense to gay people, but there's a joke about evangelical Republicans...
