Showing them that chapter in Genesis doesn’t do much good ( not even to Presbyterian Church USA pastors who endorse gay marriage ).
They rationalize it to say that they engage in consensual sex (AKA LOVE), not rape like what these men of Sodom demand.
Unfortunately, for the majority you are right. But there are always a few who see the light and repent. Hopefully more than we ever realize. We can only speak the truth and shine a light on the darkness.
Have a great resurrection weekend. He is risen!
They also say that the Bible was mistranslated and was never meant to say that God doesn’t like “homosexuals”. What it meant to say was “pedophiles”.
If they can convince themselves and enough churches and Christians that this is true then their moral standing is clarified. They can be priests and take communion and hang out with children and get married in the church. Therefore it would be truly hateful to discriminate against them, and of course you couldn’t be a real Christian and not approve of them or the “lifestyle”.
