Ah. Gay marriage. The subject the fundies get all worked up about. And before anybody tells me that I "can't take one part of the bible and ignore the rest", let me introduce you to Mr. Kettle and the concept of keeping kosher. Already keep kosher? Um. Good for you. I'll have more snide comments in a minute.

As for whether or not Jesus said anything about homosexuality, there's some theories that the original, complete version of Mark included a homosexual encounter, in what may have been a positive light. Of course, quite a lot of early Christian (and Jewish) texts never made it into the Bible, so....

Date: 2004-02-27 12:24 am (UTC)If it's in the interests of loving and respecting everyone to the best of my ability and in accordance to me respect of the 10 commandments and Christ's teachings, WHY would I be upset about this as a (generally classed) Christian??
If two women or two men (or transgenders even) love each other and aren't hurting anyone in the process...then WHAT pray tell is wrong with it?
