...when confronted with the plain text, dismiss Romans out of hand?

The "gay christian" apologists come up with all kinds of absurd arguments to dismiss scripture.
The most common one I've heard for Romans is;

"Paul is refering to heterosexuals who are violating their own nature by engaging in homosexual behavior. God "gave them up" indicates that God made them commit acts which were against their own "natural" orientation. None of this applies to genuine homosexuals since homosexuality is their "natural" orientation, not heterosexuality."

There are a million ways to call “Good evil and evil good.”

They are all lies and property of the father of lies.

Nowhere does Paul claim his message is for only one segment of the community—it’s not the “Letter to the Straight Romans.”

Are there teachings which only apply to the left-handed, as well? It would be great to have those marked out as well.
