Have you read the rest of Leviticus? Do you know of anyone who keeps all of those rules? And not without reason; those rules have been overridden in the NT. As far as I know, homosexuality is mentioned a grand total of 3 times in the entire bible, some of those were arguably a lot more specific than homosexuality in general (like temple prostitution or rape), and none of them from the mouth of Jesus Christ himself. Compare this to the number of times Jesus himself insists on loving everybody (neighbour, enemy), or argues against wealth. Don't just cherry pick a few verses from some dark corners, read the entire thing, and understand its context, understand what the core message is. Really, if you listen to some people, you'd think that the bible is all about Genesis 1 and Leviticus, and anything later is pretty much irrelevant (except maybe the Revelations of John). |
