I'm not really prepared to get into this debate but I did want to point out to all you wonderful Christians who believe the Bible is the inspired word of God/god that you damn well better know what it really says, not as it has been translated, nor as it's taught to you by some priest, minister or other religious figure.
In the above article Leviticus 20:13 is quoted as follows.
King James. "If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them."
New International Bible. "If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."
Both of these translation, along with many more, were translated by men who happened to be both patriarchal and homophobic.
The true translation from Hebrew to English. "And a man who will lie down with a male in a woman's bed, both of them have made an abomination. Dying they will be put to death; their blood is on them."
No this has nothing to do with the men having sex with each other nor, most likely, does it refer to a threesome. It has to do with Jewish Law as who has the right to sleep in a woman's bed. Which was restricted, as far as men go, to only her husband, along with other laws as to when he was allowed into her bed.
Further if you are Christian, you are no longer subject to Jewish Law so all of it is null and void, you live by the grace of God/god not by the law. If you accept any of the Jewish Laws as your salvation, you are subject to all of the Jewish Laws, which means you are surely damned.
Do I personally have anything against Christians? NO, but you have no right to deny me my life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. If you belong to a church that preaches against me, that fund campaigns against me no matter what you say you, like them, are against me. If you aren't like them than vote with your feet, there are Christian churches that do not believe in HATE.
Most of you don't even understand that as a lesbian I'm four times more likely to be brutalized than Blacks, Hispanics, Jews or Muslins. Why? Because of religion!
Edit to add patriarchal
