That "if a man sleeps with another man and they shall be stoned" (not a native English) verse is wrongly translated iirc. In old Hebrew there is a word that specifically means "man who is not yet an adult" - and back then you were an adult with 14 I think.

It was never about being gay is sinful, it was about molesting children being a sin.

Yeah, but no republican wants to hear that their favorite activity is a sin.

Well hell, they don't like that rule at all

Right? No wonder they all make it about The Gays.

Similarly a lot of the stuff about sodomy was about rape. Regardless I don't think we should use religious texts as the basis for morals.

molesting children is a sin

Nowadays that's a prerequisite if you want to be a republican politician.

Reminds me of a scene from one of my favourite west wing episodes:

That would keep things consistent with the apparent rule that conservatives must act opposite of what the bible says.

First it discourages molesting kids. RNC buzzkill.

Then while they're using abortion as a successful wedge issue and mechanism of control, the Bible is over here giving instructions on how to give abortions to unfaithful women.

Then there are so many groups to hate...

And SO many desperate poor people to ignore or actively push out of view...

I probably don't need to go on.
