Reply #1: The Old Testament [View All]

Specifically Leviticus, has several references to homosexuality being "an abomination." And I do believe states that a man found lying with a man as with a woman should be put to death.

The problem therin is, that the New Testament is suppose to trump the Old, and Jesus never mentioned homosexuality or alluded to homosexuals. Nothing in the actualy teaching of Jesus addresses or condemns homosexuality. However, the letter sof Paul(don;t rememebr the chapter and verse) contain a reiteration of the Old Testament condemnation of homosexuals. That and the Leviticus refernce are what Christians use to justify their hatred and bigotry.
