If they're accepting of gays, why do they embrace that passage of the Bible? Do they not wear mixed fabrics? Do they avoid eating shrimp/pigs/cheeseburgers/honey? Do they condemn all of these things? No? Then what makes the homoloveuality rule any different?
It is called cherry picking; Leveticus 18:22 and Lev. 20:13, as I said earlier, were for a Jewish-group that usually consisted of priests. They depicted laws, and stuff like that, that the Levites had to follow. In laymans terms, Christians and Jewish people cannot use the Old Testiment as a basis against gay people. And if you actually look at the structure, the mention of woman turns both passages into silliness:
18:22: "You shall not lie with a man as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
I would like to emphasize AS. This is more or less likely talking about a threesome, or biloveuals who lie with females and then turn to a male partner. Once you forget a woman, you're supposed to marry them to get your sins forgiven, and you can't have love with another partner out of marriage. Again, this is also towards Levites, as well. I would like to point out that "abomination" is a term that jewish people used as not sins, but morally incorrect in society.
20:13: "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them."
I would like to point towards the first Leveticus entry. This is most likely a restatement for the law for LEVITES. Not for the average isrealites. This also, does not mention sin; this probably means throwing stones at people. Again, Levites.
1 Cor. 6:9-10: "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homoloveuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Homoloveuals was mistranslated; that passage was made to mean "perverts".
Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
Oh boy, you got m-
Oh wait. No. This is probably just a passage that someone wrote in order to go over the Leveticus rules, which were probable misinterperated. Remember, the Bible is not directly God's word. This could also mean having circle jerks with each other, or just experimenting, or was just a casual thing. Again, this is probably the only passage in the Bible that full blown goes against it, but you can't use this as concrete evidence. It usually has to go through many books of the Bible in order to actually be credible.
