It's a good point vortex, but how could a quote like Leviticus 20:13 NAB (If a man lies with a male as with a women, both of them shall be put to death for their abominable deed; they have forfeited their lives) ever, EVER be seen as innocent? There are people who believe this bullcrap and act on it. It's rare indeed, and the individual would no doubt already be quite touched, but put it this way:
Would you take moral advice from somene who says that any man who sleeps with another male should be killed? Let your kids be taught by a book that teaches this? Nowadays, if a politician were to say things like that, he would be in a lot of trouble (recently, Nick Griffin, leader of the BNP narrowly avoided prison for inciting racial hatred and wht he said was not as extreem as above), and rightly so (boo freedom, yay equality).
Edit: I'm not a christian, and really could care less if the bible was one giant satanic ritual.
Oh yeah, I really could care. With however many millions of people believing it to be the sacred truth, the word of god it's simply insane to not care, even a little if its telling people to go out and kill homosexuals, witches and whoever else.
Being from Norn Iron, a country that still seems to revolve around religious hatred (I'm actually gonna punch the next person who asks me if I'm a catholic or a protestant) I know how much religion can effect people. Communities split up, families torn apart from violence or murders. Religion is causing more harm than good. If people are so goddang thick that you need a book to tell you the difference between right and wrong then whadya expect?
Sorry, but the whole deal is just really making me angry.
I also know a very sound Wiccan.
