Well, ded, I don't follow the Xian bible so none of that really applies to me. Back on topic, we can quote bible verses in another thread

Potshot asked if jesus taught acceptance of homosexuals, and I quoted him to show that I thought that he did. Sorry, I'll explain myself a little better next time...

Oooh, I got ya. My bad

Well I don't think Jesus ever talks about homosexuals directly, but the Old Testament does...then again, it depends on HOW you translate those verses because it doesn't really mean what it means.

fervent sectarianism is a religion in it's own right.

I am not aware of any Christian Scripture supporting tolerance of homosexuality, so I would think the Old Testament stance on it stands.

Personally, I have no strong views in either direction. However, Jesus did say "Love your neighbor as yourself." AKA, the golden rule. Treat others how you would like yourself to be treated. I don't think he made any exceptions with regards to that statement, so there you go. You wouldn't like to be treated like a homosexual, would you? So, if you are a follower of Christ, why would treat a homosexual any different then anyone else? Jesus was the counterculturist of his time. He hung out with tax collectors, prostitutes, criminals, and non-believers. So before you get all high and mighty, think about the man Christianity is based on.
