Because there is no directive whatsoever in the Bible to marginalize and ostracize gay people.....
FK me! Have you ever read the bible for yourself. Both the Old and New Testaments condemns TO DEATH homosexuals to death as it does transvestites.
As always, Stephen is completely full of shit, he doesn't know anything about the Bible, all he ever does is blather a bunch of made-up shit.
You are just a dumb twat that needs others to show you what is actually written in the bible because you are too bone ideal to read it for yourself.
I wouldn't make claims I couldn't' support.
Except for yes, you did, just like you always make claims you can't support, except by reference to that psychodrama in your head.
You said, "Both the Old and New Testaments condemns TO DEATH homosexuals to death as it does transvestites."
I responded, "If he wants to show the New Testament verse that supports his delusional made up fantasy that the Bible supports his Bigotry, I'll walk all over his complete lack of knowledge about the Bible."
Like the rest of the BIBLE, I take you have never read Romans either then, thicko.
Congratulations kiddie, at least you have Googled something from the correct testament for a change, but as always, Stephen, Mall, and Shila are demonstrating that they are the Larry Curley, and Moe of Biblical scholarship, they do not know what they are talking about, they are simply bigots, nothing more.
As I said in the previous posts you either haven’t read or couldn’t comprehend, Jesus never said a word about homosexuality, and it only appears that Paul mentioned it a few times, but these references did not appear in any translation of the Christian Bible until 1946, when bigots like Stephen inserted them to justify their hate.
And it is highly debatable whether Paul actually spoke of homosexuality, it is a tremendous stretch to think that he did. Paulo wrote in Koine Greek and his words were translated in 1946, the words translated into homosexual were "malakos" and "arsenokoitai". Malakos translates literally into the word "soft". The word "arsenokoitai" which was also translated into the word homosexual had never been encountered prior to Paul's letter and therefore must have been translated that was on an agenda driven basis. It has since been encountered in other ancient texts and in those contexts, translation of "arsenokoitai" into the word homosexual makes no sense. Most scholars believe that Paul was speaking about "softness" of faith with the use "Malokos", that being tentative in your commitment to the Lord was an abomination.
Even if these references were not inserted by bigots 2000 years after the texts were written, Paul stated quite explicitly that he was offering only his opinions in these letters "I have no command of the Lord, but I give my opinion..." In Paul's opinion nobody should marry, and women should always wear a veil.
Paul was responding to letters we don't have, and they were letters of comment and advice to friends in the faith. Now we are translating something said to a very specific audience in the way you would try to comprehend a conversation by listening to only one side of a telephone call, simply guessing at what the other side had said. Paul thought the world would come to an end in his own lifetime, he did not know that these letters would become scripture, or even exist 2000 years later, and he certainly could not have imagined that his letters would be twisted into a set of universal mandates used to oppress and judge others.
Historically speaking, at some time or another Paul's writings have been taken out of context in order to support the oppression of practically every minority on God's green earth, including Jews, children, women, blacks, slaves, politicians, divorced people, convicts, pro choice people, lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals, religious reformers, the mentally ill, and the list goes on
There is nothing whatsoever in the New Testament to support your bigotry against homosexuals, your hate is not Biblically derived, it comes from the kind of person you are, just a know nothing bigot.
And comically, you think Leviticus is in the New Testament,
Nope. It's definitely OT.
LOL, I know, that's what I keep telling you, aren’t you going to thank me for letting you know that.
Despite Stephen's lack of knowledge about the New Testament, despite the fact that he doesn't even know what books are in it, or what the New Testament is even about, (It is not about Stephen's bigotry). As anyone who has ever read the New Testament knows, it does explicitly condemn Stephen's bigotry.
What bigotry would that be, thicko?
LOL, OMG, it’s one thing for you to blather on about the Bible when you haven’t read it, there are plenty of posers like you, but to respond to posts you haven’t even read, that’s amazingly stupid, even for Larry, Curley, and Moe. Perhaps you can find someone with half a brain and ask them to read through this exchange and explain to you what it is about, the conversation is clearly about your bigotry, if you are too dense to figure that out, then for you, understanding anything is hopeless, you just don’t have the mental capacity to grasp...well...anything really.
And tag me when you respond to me, you sly fkr.
LOL, oh, you so clever, you’ve been pulling that childish weasel shit for a year and a half now. We both know that the first time I showed what an idiotic and incompetent twit you are, you blocked me, and ever since you have denied it and claimed the fact that I can’t tag you means I’m afraid, or underhanded, or a “sly fkr”, but it is just an incredibly childish tactic used to distract from your stupidity about the subject matter. It only demonstrates how dishonest you are, and for you to think anyone would swallow such Puerile garbage is about as dimwitted as it gets.
Nobody is fooled by this angry little manchild, just keep acting out and throwing your little tantrums. We appreciate the comic relief, and it’s fun to imagine you wearing a red Styrofoam nose and big floppy shoes when you are pretending to know what you are talking about LOL.
