Oh please, don't pull my words out of context. I was speaking of Leviticus 18:22. The verse in question does not adress rape. It speaks of two men having (SEXUAL RELATIONS) with each other. Sexual Relations has to do with two willing people.

I'm not religious. I would prefer gays to stay away from me. I have no problems with them interacting with each other, or getting married, or anything else. I just don't want to be around them.

Note: I am not gay, this is more out of curiosity

This is just one thing that sickens me about religious type people.

Never mind gays, you don't seem to want anyone around you...If you are around people at all you no doubt are around some gays, but just don't know it...They don't have "I am gay" stamped on their foreheads you know.

Oh, I know. And you are right, I don't really like being around any people. I'm not singling out gay people in particular. People in general annoy me...unless they leave me alone, and I leave them alone. Then we're fine.

I did in the next post, where I posted the beginnings of Leviticus 18 and Levicus 20. This proved beyond any shadow of a doubt that you hadn't even read the whole chapters.

How on earth can anyone have a conversation about Leviticus with you when you obviously haven't even read it. Read it first - all the chapters, then get back to us.

Saying the Bible is not literally true is one thing. Ignoring the reality is something else again.
I suggest you actually READ the Bible itself, instead of picking up bits and pieces from Apologist websites.

I often get blamed for breaking their hearts, when all I am doing is loving them and treating them like I would my sister/brother. It sucks very much, actually, because I love to adore people. But when I do....
Are you being serious?
