Well in the context of the Bible, neighbors generally did not include those outside the community and we all know what happened to those people...genocide.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

false

Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged from Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:12 NLT)

This post makes no sense at all.

Please try again.

Btw please quote where your jesus specifically condemns homosexuality in the NT.

And there are many who believe in god and ended up in prison. What's your point?
There's no such thing as a 'devil' BTW. Atheists don't believe in the devil.

Sin is just something 'YOU' believe in.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
