In four Gospels - including the Sermon on the Mount - Jesus neglected to mention the subject of homosexuality.

David Horowitz should obviously become a chr*stian.

I don't give a hoot what the Nazarene said about anything. G-D A-MIGHTY in the Seven Noachide Laws, given to 'Adam, to Noach, and finally to all mankind in the Sinai revelation, makes homosexuality a capital offense.

But you know what'll happen. Those Israel-hating "palaeos" will take this endorsement of their beloved J*sus by Horowitz and cite this as evidence of the alleged "promotion" of homosexuality by Torah Judaism. Oh well.

I used to respect David Horowitz. Not any more.

I can't see how David Horowitz, by quoting the New Testament, would become some kind of authority on Judaism thereby. Mr. Horowitz was attempting to meet the likes of Bauer on their own intellectual turf, the NT.

There would be little use in quoting Torah to most X-ians, especially those of Bauer's ilk, as most them rarely ever read it and have publically stated in their doctrinal statements that J-sus replaced Torah with "grace", even when at the same time, they claim that J-sus himself is the creator of the universe and gave Torah to the Jews--the same Torah they now feel is largely abrogated by J-sus' death on the cross.

They can't have it both ways, either Torah, with its condemnations of homosexual and other behaviours are binding or not. Either the Torah "high days" and the Sabbath are important or they are not.

I find that most x-ians splits hairs with the Torah when it suits them (when they bother to read it). You can't say that the Torah is right about homosexual behaviour and wrong about the "high days" and be intellectually consistent.
