bareboards2says...Of course, Dan Savage has some words of wisdom about this:

Excerpt:
I would like to take this opportunity to point out that LGBT people aren't asking conservative Christians to do anything they aren't already doing. We're asking conservative Christians to ignore what the bible says about homosexuality just as they ignore what the bible says about slavery. (They ignore what the bible says about slavery so thoroughly that many don't know that the bible says anything about slavery at all!)
Christians moved in their "conception of the value of human beings" before and they can do it again.
lurgeesays...fuck this douche
bobknight33says...Slavery was allowed and being gay wasn't. Slavery is still going on today through out the world. America created the Constitution to stop it in America. Yes some founders held slaves and knew better. But they enabled future generation their freedoms. Change takes time. It took time and much bloodshed but now it is a thing of the past for us in America.
marinarasays...to be fair, any kind of sex was pretty much outlawed in the old testament, except the married kind
