Read your bible and then anwer then question. God demands that homosexuals be put to death, that rapist have to marry their victims, and that if a man hits his slave and she doesn't die, it is okay.

WTF?! Rapists have to marry their victims? Are you kidding? And people are still taking what it says in the Bible to heart... That's amazing. Truly. I didn't know a book could hold that many people in it's power.
And there it is again, the 'thou shalt not kill' contradiction. So it's only okay to kill if God tells us to. Interesting.

You have twisted the scriptures and have not read all of them. Read Dueteronomy 22:25 it says, "But if in the field the man finds the girl who is engaged, and the man rapes her and lies with her, then only the man who lies with her shall "die". As for the slave, according to Exodus 21:20 it says, "And if a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod and he dies at his hand, he shall be "punished". So punishment back then was exacted fairy regardless of whether it was homosexuality, rape, or killing a servant.

first of all...the bible is a BOOK. an inaminate object..it can't favor anything. The people that wrote the book may have had favors that reflected the times in which this BOOK was written. Im sorry, but your going to have to do more than read the bible if you want answers to these questions...go talk to a priest.

All sexual sins that man committed he sinneth against his own body. Your body is the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
1 Corinthians 6:18 - Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1 Corinthians 6:19 - What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
2 Corinthians 6:16 - And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

well its not lyk its trying to make ppl rape, murder, and have slaves rather then being homosexual. i dont think this is a question u can ask ppl and get an answer but rather hear what other ppl have to say and decide on it yourself.

no, homosexuality is mentioned in Leviticus and has a very loose intepreation. I think its more opposed to bisexuailty. But it is not at all pfavorable to rape. Slavery yes, but murder as oppsosed to war in self defense, yes. Killing in general no.

old testiment but yes it does say that the new testiment teaches forgiveness but only if we repent God csn not forgivr some one who continues in sin and homosexuals tend to draw more into their sin so it is not just them.

In the Bible, sin is sin. No difference. All sin can be forgiven, but if one truly repents (turns away from), then they cannot continue in that sin.

Incorrect.
The old Mosaic law is no longer in effect.
