So what this guy is saying is because the Old Testament talks about homosexuality being a sin, it is ipso facto not a sin anymore. Why? Because everything in the OT is just plain old timey and stupid. Problem is the NT talks about it too.

Romans 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones.

Romans 1:27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Furthermore Jesus made it clear that the OT is not invalid.

Matthew 5:17 [ The Fulfillment of the Law ] “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

Matthew 5:18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

So if anyone sins because of this guy’s declaration he is now more in trouble, than if he kept his views to himself.

James 3:1 [ Taming the Tongue ] Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.

The problem arises when the text uses the word “love” and the reader understands that to mean “shove p3nis into.” It’s not just homosexuals who have this confusion, in a variety of contexts.
