No, I get the point loud and clear...you don't know what in the heck you're talking about...SMH...

Your Projection is Loud and Clear.

Now go scrape some 'leprosy' and 'skin defilements' off the walls of your basement and get a priest to knock out and remove all the affected bricks and sacrifice some birds and lambs and chant some mumbo jumbo for you to clean it.

I'll stick with:

Christians have a reputation for being homophobic. Well I am going to state my position on homosexuality. The Bible says not to be a homosexual and its very cut and dry on that. Particularly when its men with other men. There is one verse that I know of in the Bible that addresses lesbianism but where the Bible really hits it home is when it comes to men with other men, the Bible makes it very clear that men should not engage in homosexual acts with other men and that you should not live such a lifestyle. Now not everybody believes the Bible and that's their choice and as far as Im concerned if somebody's gay that's their business but as for me, I don't get with other men number one because the Bible says not to and number two, because I just don't like other men. What two consenting men do or what two consenting women do is none of my business and I want to keep it that way, but I don't like other men, I don't want to be with other men, and that's my choice.

Um...your choice is the choice any person has in the US. It's nice that you seem to 'think that it's ok to be with who you want.'

Nobody says you cant be and the point in today's America is...so can gay people. We all know it's no one else's business...again, that's the point.

Has little to do with Christianity unless 'supposed' Christians mistakenly think that their beliefs should affect that for other people.

(And I'm a practicing Christian)

The Bible tells you not to eat shell fish or mix veggies with bran (or something). Do you follow those rules too?

How about the part about killing disobedient children? You good with that one?

THIS was my original post.

You are clearly wrong in claiming it was about leprosy not house mold. These (below) are the preceding verses to put it in context. Anyone with half a brain can read it for themselves and see it is talking about house mold, not leprosy. It is clearly YOUR reading comprehension that is a problem, not mine. I wonder if reality is too much for ya? :lamo

Leviticus 14:33-53

The funny thing is that I was just using it as an example of why it would be ludicrous for a 21st century person to follow everything the Bible says. For house mold, we would just use bleach based product from the supermarket.

It's just as ludicrous (if not more so) to follow the commands for treating leprosy, as in the 21st century a course of antibiotics would be used, not all that primitive ritual mumbo jumbo.

Elvira never admits to any of her many mistakes.

Re: Christian Viewpoint On Homosexuality

Many people use the Bible to justify their negative attitude toward homosexuality.

I bet you dollars to doughnuts that if the Bible did not exist, those people would find some other source to justify their attitude.

It's all so silly.

The Bible says lots of things (about slavery, women, etc.) that everyone rejects today. For some reason, however, any anti-homosexual text is regarded as sacred by some people.
