Humans can lie, forget things, understand or hear others wrong or remember their words incorrectly etc. Even If it was based on Gods words, it was still written by people. However people wanna interpret things, Torah and new testament are still both written by humans. And since many conservative christians are so crazy about children, why are they so against of gay people having them? I think modern day science has proved enough times male masturbation doesn't sabotage fertility and can sometimes even Increase it, and the same goes for women. Male masturbation and male-to male sex has been accused of "wasting seed" by the bible or just christians who interpret it that way. The words also had slightly different religious meanings and it might have been falsely translated from hebrew. The quote about how a man shouldn't lie with a man has a historical context to it and was likely about how old men shouldn't sleep with young men/boys (which was common for that time). Everyone picks and chooses parts from their religion, but picking the hateful ones or just using them as an excuse for bigotry is stupid. Many christians largely ignore the old testament, except when it's convenient for them. So this is what personally annoys me about homophobic arguments christians have: My meme was also not to be taken too seriously, but I'm glad If it sparks conversation. Thanks for your comment! I know this is strongly up for interpretation and I also know very little about the bible and lean towards atheism. There are more in the Gospels and letters.īy the by: The total number of verses with implied or direct queer meanings/readings out number the verses with a homophobic leaning, and unlike those "clobber verses" the pro-LGBTQIA+ verses hold up in the original Hebrew/Greek and are not dependent on translator bias. Later in Genesis (37) Jacob gives his son, Joseph, a robe, which Joseph loved, that is described as basically a "Princess Dress." This is affirmed by the use of the same Hebrew word (and only other instance of it) in 2 Samuel: “the kind of garment the virgin daughters of the king wore” (2 Samuel 13:18)īy the way, this is just a sample, and using the old testament only. In Genesis 25, we learn that Jacob preferred to be with his mother, and do activities that are typically viewed as women behavior. May the LORD deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me.” (Ruth makes a vow to Naomi, Ruth 1:16-17).

Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God. “Wherever you go, I will go wherever you live, I will live. “Your love for me was wonderful, more wonderful than that of women.” (2 Samuel 1:26) “After David had finished talking with Saul, Jonathan became one in spirit with David, and he loved him as himself.” (1 Samuel 18:1) in fact homosexuality is well established in the old testament:
