May. 8th, 2004 04:35 amI was just watching a Penn and Teller bullshit episode. We really pick and choose what we want from the bible, don't we?
The common gays are bad reference from the bible:
"If a man also lie with man-kind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
Passage from the next chapter:
"Our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice... and all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die."
So apparently the church can claim god dislikes gay relationships, but when's the last time you've heard the church advocating for the killing of stubborn children by throwing stones at them?
