How about you just burn the Bible instead? It has no logic behind it's claims against homosexuality anyway.

Most of the old levitican laws were written to suit the times, they were not written by God but by the Levi, or the law makers, As society changed and evolved {sorry} throught the centurys, so the laws changed as well, civil codes were introduced mainly to stop the eccesses of religious fanatics who would have killed people for wearing garments with both wool and cotton in them!..That is why we dont stone the 'poofs' anymore..Because its murder!..

Your Jesus said the following 'let he who is without sin cast the first stone'. Jesus didn't even cast a stone that goes to show.
What makes you think that God doesn't like the gay concept. He who created all things is responsible for all things done on this planet. But people make God into what they want him to be.
Stoning that person will make you more of a sinner than they supposedly are.

We are to obey the laws of our land also. I noticed you just said someone you know and did not claim to be his friend. Try being a friend and sahring Jesus with love and compassion. Live a good life and let him see God in you by your deeds.
Jesus took away the O.T. Law and Nailed it to his cross. We are not under law but under grace.

The Stoning and having people judge each other went out with Jesus and Redemption.
"Let he among you who is without sin cast the first stone"
Are you completely without sin?
Then you should not judge the soul of others, or take it upon yourself to punish others in the name of God.
Peace, and may God Bless you!

Hey, dont pay any attention to all of these stupid answers. For one, you cant kill the guy and you know that. If this person is truely your friend then you have a choice to either accept him or forget him. Read your bible one more time. Homosexuality is mentioned in it, and it is highly offensive to god. Is this guy truely "gay" or is he just a pervert?

Don't even bring the bible into it, you are no representative of the bible, obviously. The time of the law has ended and the new laws in the New Testament are Love God with all your heart and all your mind and all your soul and love your neighbor as you love yourself.
I'm not going to go in to homosexuality, but promoting hate is not promoting Christ.

Yes as long as you have never worked on a Sunday as that is a death penalty offense. Or eaten shell fish or pork or eagle.

Live by the Law,
Die by the Law.
I suggest you live by forgiveness, Grace & Mercy.

Just live as Jesus wants you to live, and let your light so shine that others will see it and want what you have.
