Why are so many of you so quick to jump to accusations of hatred? I am a Christian, sir, despite your protestations; it is not in my nature to harbor hatred, especially not for other people.

OK, fine, you caught me; I had not read that passage since switching to a different Bible translation. I didn't see, and mysteriously no other person ever pointed out to me, the letter that Paul wrote in which he stated his opinion that homosexuals would not inherit the Kingdom of God. I also failed to note any passage in which God names Paul as an authority on the law equal to Jesus.

I do hope that you're this quick to condemn people who practice circumcision, since he condemned that with much more vigor than he ever did homosexuality. Indeed, he declared that circumcision would render Jesus's sacrifice invalid. Have fun arguing that point with people who claim to hold the literal explicit text of the Bible as sacred without consideration of inconveniences like historical context.

Anyway, it's obvious you're not interested in discussing actual theology or philosophy and instead just intend to quote the Bible at me like I haven't heard it all before. You're welcome to ask questions of me, but I'm not interested in being lectured at, especially in not such a transparent and shallow way. Take care of yourself, anon, and I hope that your journey brings you joy and meaning as mine has. God bless.
