Good grief, you people just won't give up that argument. Jesus fulfilled the OT law, making it null and void. We are not put to death for our sins because Christ's death paid that penalty. Now that doesn't mean that the once punishable action is now suddenly good and moral in the eyes of God. Same thing with adultry. We don't call for the death of people who cheat on their spouses yet it was in Leviticus as well.
Good grief, heaven and the earth is is here so the law IS still to be followed right from jesus’s mouth.
Now post something said by someone else other then Jesus/god saying something different

Yeah. Fundies don't have to kill gays anymore.
They're satisfied knowing that the LGBT will spend an eternity being toasted once their all-loving god-thing gets done with them.
Oh yea! They take something you said that horrifies them because it sounds like heresy then they go loco. Did you see what pcamps just wrote ?, he told God to repent...... they are seeing what they want to see.They are only interested in nothing other than what they have already been taught.They boast within themselves We've had it right all along since we said we believed in Jesus. If they only studied the disciples and how many times they got it wrong with their concept of God and the teachings of Jesus Christ. We know the only reason Peter opened his mouth was to change feet.
]It was a Hebraic culture they lived in, more than likely they didnt have this homosexual neighbor problem. This whole gay this gay that, is a Europeans culture thing that has spread around the world, not something from the Middle East or Africa where biblical history is based out of.
Problem?
But putting that ridiculousness aside, this is exactly the point Romulus has been making. That culture had no concept of homosexuality as we do today, so why would they have laws against something they had no concept of? The fundamentalist "clobber" passages are not about homosexual relationships, but about something they were familiar with: temple prostitution.

Too bad what you say is the truth, Pleroo. Because fundies aren't interested.
