Paul, not Jesus, extended the Levitical attitudes toward homosexual acts into the Christian era. Contrasting Paul's fear and distrust of pleasure with Jesus' acceptance of the sexually marginal, Jeremy Bentham noted that "Jesus was one person, Paul was another. The religion of Jesus was one thing, the religion of Paul quite another; where Jesus had been silent about homosexuality, Paul was vehement." )
Some pastoral counselors, familiar with the psychology of the homophobe whose vehemence masks his own homoerotic feelings, have seen in Paul's epistles evidence of a psychosexual disorder.
Followers of the Bible are stuck aping Paul's homophobic attitude in perpetuity, it's like a never-ending broken homophobic hate record playing over and over isn't it.
