The issue of homosexuality and homosexual marriage is currently one of the most hotly debated subjects in the U.S.
There are those who are for it claiming equal rights, and those that are against often claim it is an abomination in the eyes of God.
Those who take this stance point to the Bible as evidence and support for this view. Afterall, the Bible is considered by the religous community to be the unerring word of God. Admittedly though, if pressed christians will admit that there is a liberal amount of interpretation that occurs in the reading and teaching of the scripture.
So what if someone were to, through Biblical study, show that homosexuality is actually supported in the Bible? Would this interpretation automatically be rejected by those who don't agree with it or can it be accepted as a legitimate interpretation and teaching of the holy scriptures? If the latter can be true, then does this remove ones religous justification for the opposition of homosexuality and leave you with just your personal bias?
Why am I asking all these questions? Well, I recently read a very interesting biblical study on homosexuality.
Take a look and try to be objective while reading it. It think you may find he makes some very valid points, or if you don't I hope you will take the time to respond with an equally thought out rebuttal.
