Re: I Want My Christianity Back (Without the Ugly Baggage)
Do you eat shellfish and stone adulterers?

That's funny, I've also spent years *studying the bible intensely* and going to church (because I love God)...and I have yet to have any learned Christian claim that homosexual relationships are not in violation of moral law...but then again, most Christians don't spend a lot of time trying to distinguish moral law from the rest. They spend their times trying to avoid sin..of all types.
But, as I said, the Bible is full of warnings about those who distort the bible to suit their purposes. If your purpose is to normalize sin, then you are going to find a way to dismiss God's stated aversion to the particular sins you wish to normalize.
This is not a new tactic, and the fact that it is becoming more widespread with every day, and the people who engage in it are portraying themselves as "Biblical scholars" and "new christians" and such is just more evidence that the Bible is, in fact, the word of God, incorruptible.
Even by those who pretend they are being "Christ-like" when they try to corrupt it.
