You are forbidden to trim your beard about 4 passages after the one you quoted. But since Jesus, Leviticus doesn't have much bearing on the Christian faith. I find that those who use those quotes are only doing so to push their own moral agenda, not that of the bible. (In fact Christians who use quotes from Leviticus arguably understand very little about the Christianity. If they did think Leviticus was to be obeyed they would be crippled in modern society as Leviticus is essentially just a list of absurd laws. For example, being homosexual has equal billing to burning a priest's daughter to death if she has sex; but I don't see a group of people who go around killing the daughters of priests)
If Player1x3 said "I hate gays because of Leviticus!" then I would be on your side, but he didn't even bring it up. He's even stated that his religion has no bearing on his view towards homosexuals. It's clear he doesn't hold the view you want him to and he doesn't want to get into this argument, ok? Some people do though, so if you want to argue this then find someone who holds those views. If you want to argue against homophobes, then more power to you. |
Yeah, I mentioned earlier that I was wrong to attack Player1x3. I never said that all Christians have to be homophobic though, just that their God has made anti-homosexual statements through the Bible.
