Where in the Bible does it Say gay marriage is wrong?

Question

Write it word for word and give me the location of it.

Foolish Republicans.

Answer 1

IT DOESNT ACTUALLY ...LOL

but to all your religious posters.....

Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law.
I have learned a great deal from you, and I try to share that knowledge
with as many people as I can.
I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other specific
Biblical laws and how to follow them.

a) When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a
pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors.
They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?

b) I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in
Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price
for her?

c) I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her
period of menstrual uncleanness (Lev.15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell?
I have tried asking, but most women take offense. If I come into contact with
a woman who is menstruating and she doesn't tell me until afterwards, must I
kill her immediately or can I just beat her?

d) Lev. 25:44 states that I may indeed possess slaves, both male and female,
provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims
that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify?
Why can't I own Canadians?

e) I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2
clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill
him myself? Also, is Sabbath on Saturday as Seventh Day Adventists
(Christians, like us...or are they?) or is it on Sunday as Baptists and
some other faiths agree? I am beset by not knowing who to kill and when
to kill them...please clarify this for me.

f) A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination
(Lev. 11:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality (Lev. 18:22).
I don't agree. I'm also confused about how homosexuality can be an abomination
when Jonathan and David were married in the Bible (1 Samuel 18:1, 3 - 4).
Here, I'll quote it - "And it came to pass, when he had made an end of
speaking unto Saul that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David
and Jonathan loved him as his own soul. Then Jonathan and David made a
covenant, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself
of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even
to his sword and to his bow and to his girdle." and also Ruth's relationship
with Naomi is suspect, (Ruth 1:16-17) "And Ruth said to Naomi, Entreat me not
to leave thee, or to return from following after thee: for whither thou goest,
I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people,
and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I be buried:
the Lord do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part three and me.
" Can you settle this?

g) Lev. 21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a
defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear reading glasses. Does my
vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

h) Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around
their temples, even though this is expressly forbidden by Lev.19:27 and even
though 1st Cor. 11:4-6 says that it is a shame upon a man to have long hair.
How should they die?

i) I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me
unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves? Also, since it is
strictly forbidden to "eat neither fat nor blood" in Lev. 3:17 & Lev. 19:26,
does that mean that I must be a vegetarian and must I smite those who choose
to eat meat?

j) My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev. 19:19 by planting two different
crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two
different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse
and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of
getting the whole town together to stone them (Lev.24:10-16)? Couldn't we just
burn them to death at a private family affair like we do with people who sleep
with their in-laws (Lev. 20:14)?

k) I know that it is an abomination for a man to wear a woman's clothes or a
woman to wear a man's (Deut. 22:5), so does that mean that since my wife
borrowed my boxers once, she's going to hell?

l) An unbeliever sent me an email telling me that God is an ABORTIONIST? It
says, "In Num. 5:11-31, God commands a husband to get an abortion for his wife
if he suspects she has been impregnated by another man. A priest is to make her
drink a potion and tell her, "If any man other than your husband has had
intercourse with you, may the LORD make an example of you . . . by bringing
upon you miscarriage and untimely birth." To deliberately cause a miscarriage
is to perform an abortion. And who brings about this miscarriage? Who performs
this abortion? It is the LORD who does so. God is an abortionist. In Ex. 21:22-25,
God tells us what to do if a man who is fighting knocks against a pregnant woman.
If the woman dies, the principle of "life for life" is invoked and the man
responsible for her death must be killed. If she lives but has a miscarriage,
then the death of the fetus is to be compensated for by the payment of a fine,
as demanded by the woman's husband. Thus, God has revealed the status of the
unborn fetus: it is not an independent, full-fledged human life, whose
destruction amounts to murder. It is a thing owned by the woman's husband, a
thing whose loss, like that of any other thing, may be compensated for with
money." How can this be true?

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident you can
help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and
unchanging and also for the reassurance that the Bible is infallible.


We think the cross to bear is not for those who are gay, but those who believe in crosses in the first place.

Answer 2

While not a major topic in the Bible, the passages that do exist condemn gay and lesbian behavior. Ergo, gay marriage is out.

Other posters are correct in that the Bible has lots of rules that people don't follow anymore, such as the Year of Jubilee, the disposal of mildewed cloth and rules against mastrubation. The reason is that religions (all of them) depend as much on tradition as they do on their sacred texts. Gay marriage has never been "okay" in any religious tradition, certainly not in Judaism / Christianity / Islam (you'll be killed in most Islamic countries).

Signed,
foolish Republican (who has a ton more education than you do on this topic)

Answer 3

Romans 1:21-32

Answer 4

Those who refer to Leviticus and Romans are on the right track. But besides that, the foremost reason why government MAY ban gay marriage is simply because that's what the people want to do -- according to the moral values of the majority of the people. And those moral values can come from anywhere: the Bible, tradition, relatively recent secular theories because psychologists have a theory that homosexuality is a mental illness, .................. values can come from anywhere.

Answer 5

From what I understand, the Bible doesn't exactly say that gay marriage is wrong. What is implied is that any sex that isn't open to children is a sin i.e. 2 people of the same sex, condoms, the pill, etc...

Answer 6

It doesn't. It said that the Cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were blown up by God because men were lying with men. However, the good guy offered up his underage virgin daughter, who in this day and age would be illegal to marry. It's all very strange.

Yikes. I guess it does say it. I've only looked up the Leviticus one. Still, it says they should be put to death. I find many parts of the OLd Testament overly harsh to say the least. Jesus would not have approved.

Answer 7

She's right; Leviticus 20:13:
If a man lie also with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
vs. 31, Therefore shall ye keep my commandments, and do them: I am the LORD.
So, if you're gay, just know that you're committing an abomination, and you WILL be judged for it. God have mercy on your soul.

Answer 8

I think an interesting point to make here would be... where does JESUS say it is wrong... you think he would have mentioned it, if it was that important...

and if it's in the old testament, that's not grounds for anything unless you only use the old testament, Jesus himself repealed the old laws set down in the old testament... that's why we can eat pork, drive a car on Sundays and don't have to kill people for minor crimes... like it says in the old testament...

Answer 9

I doesn't! The Bible also says it's okay to sell your daughter into prostitution. www.evilbible.com has all the stuff on it Evangical Christians want edited out of the bible

Answer 10

Where does is say the Mazda Miata with the hard drop-top is cool?

Where does it say don't bet on the Cubs?

Man, it's as weird to live your life according to what the Bible doesn't say as it is to live by what it says.

Answer 11

Leviticus chapter 20 verse 13. look it up!
