If those were the reasons then why doesn't the Bible say that? And if "bloodlines" were so important to the Jews, why does the Old Testament specifically allow Jews to marry nonJews and have children with them?
Of course committing homosexual acts are a sin. Homosexuality is clearly and specifically condemned in the New Testament.
Well, I don't accept the New Testament as being true. And, of course, when it comes to the the actual passages, there are some idioscynracies with those passages, and the original Greek in which they were written. The translation has been challenged, and that shows that translation is interpretation. So, there is enough wiggle room due to the translation issues that there are Christians that will disagree with you, and make valid arguments. As for other non-Christians, SO WHAT if the new testament condemns homosexuality.. it has nothing to do with them.
