Now you are comparing homosexuality with cannibalism.

Is there no depth you cannot dig this hole to?

Either the Old Testament is written by men and a fallible bronze aged, desert dwellers reflection on what seemed to make sense to them at the time or it's the timeless word of an insane murderous deity to whom we are but toys to squash for his pleasure.

The latter is not a deity I can bring myself to admire.

It is a Golem, a Devil if you will.

Why anyone would draw spiritual inspiration from such a character is as much a mystery to me as Nazism.

If it's a fallible human account it should not be evoked in any discourse other than comparative mythology (this is what those people thought then).The same is true of the latter books of the New Testament, written as they were by men raised in the tradition of the earlier text (or by God's own hand).

Does the Christ that goes out of his way to point out that the Sabbath is made for man even mention Homosexuality? Yet conflicted early Christians, cunning enough to detect how male fear of genital mutilation might cause problems for their new spiritual direction still clung to the Talmudic prejudices against homosexuality and women.

They are poor primary sources (if indeed they can be described even remotely as such) for any form of opinion let alone political discussion (like the shrimp).
