Keeping slaves is Biblical. Stoning infants. Not wearing two blends of fabric. Marrying women off to their rapists. Murdering Egyptian children. Hating gays. Hating anyone who doesn't follow the "Word".
I couldn't agree with you more. Disgusting, ain't it. Even those who have experienced oppression forcing the same upon others. It makes me physically ill.
LOL! And look how quick they are to quote Leviticus! When I bring it up I am told that they read the NT, NOT the OT or, and this is my favorite, they say Jesus said that some things in the OT are literal and some just metaphors. And then they pick & choose which ones they like and which they hate.
If one more person tells me "hate the sin, not the sinner" I will literally vomit all over them.

I don't know. I don't get it either.
I've always thought that anti-gay marriage proponents would have been against desegragation if they were transported fifty years back. It wasn't too far back in our history that people used the Bible to legitimize slavery and demonize divorce.
What really scares me are the "slippery slope" people. I honestly don't see how anyone could say "Once a man can marry a man, next thing you know - they'll be marrying a dog or a snake!" I just think it's really sad that people don't understand that a loving relationship between two adults is completely different from someone marrying an animal.

Because and the ages will never change that, so the gays will make their own church to tell one another that it is ok, so why complain? Everyone everywhere are going to have a difference of opinion and THAT will never change either...remember the cliche...Opinions are like noses...and lets not pick on the USA-ans...I am sure there are plenty of countries that look down on gay sex, gay marriage, gay...One fact remains throughout the world is that Jesus loves us no matter what, and loves us enough to teach us to change for the better and learn from his Word and wants to baptize everyone with his Holy Spirit and when we are ready for it he will give us revelation to some of our questions

They're small-minded. They hide behind the Bible and only poke their heads out of their shells to say something nasty. It's a good thing our country doesn't have someone like that running the country.....oh wait.....

I'm wondering why this question is asked every day. Nothing in the bible says people from different races should not get married. The bible says not to be unequally yoked, that means, a believer with an unbeliever.
And the bible also teaches that homosexuality is a sin. Therefore the marriage question is sort of answered in that.

Sin is Sin and GOD never changes. Love the Sinner and Hate the sin.
Leviticus 18:22
Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin.
Leviticus 20:13
If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense.
1 Corinthians 6:9
Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality,
1 Timothy 1:10
The law is for people who are sexually immoral, or who practice homosexuality, or are slave traders, liars, promise breakers, or who do anything else that contradicts the wholesome teaching

Who gives a crap? They should just mind their own god damned business.
If that offends them, I don't give a crap about that, either. They offend me all the time by trying to force their mythology on everyone.

Homosexuality is clearly condemned by the Bible. It goes against the created order of God. He created Adam and then made a woman. This is what God has ordained and it is what is right.
Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them"
1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
M B+++there is no "slippery slope" it's a matter of right and wrong biblically NOT a fear of human marrying animals...wow

20 years ago, interracial marriages were a social taboo.
Society changes.
Homosexuality is a Biblical taboo.
The Bible never changes.
