Should the church quit preaching the Ten Commandments so as not to offend the thieves, liars, adulterers, murderers, etc? Of course not, so why is it making exceptions for homosexuals and other sexual deviants?


Well, first off, most of the laws you reference are in Leviticus, which Christ Himself said you are no longer bound by - only the Ten Commandments.

It was Peter, coming along much later, that thought gay men were icky (didn't have a problem with hot girl-on-girl action though). He did say women should be silent though - a very popular take, I'm sure.

Most "Christians" are actually "Paulians" - taking about 75% of their focus from Paul instead of Jesus.

So let me get this straight. Paul, who taught the exact same thing that all of this Old Testament did about homosexuality was somehow off track for personal reasons?
Did not God himself in the Old Testament condemn homosexuality? Didn't Jesus say, " I do only what I see the Father do", and " the Father and I are one?"
So I'm to believe that Jesus had a diffent view of homosexuality than his Father's and Paul was simply making up theology as he went along?

The Bible is 100% consistent in its condemnation of homosexuality in both Old and New Testament and there are no verses in either that paint homosexuality in any other light except negative and sinful.

this seems awfully hard to quantify as you are doing. also, you seem to be drawing a distinction between paul and Jesus. do you feel they are saying different things?
