You are correct about man made religions .... they are all folly and fable
.... and all should be refuted .... unfortunately they all continue just the same
2 Peter
2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
2:3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment
Unfortunately most of professing Christianity has become of one of the same cloth
Exception [2 Peter 1:16-21]
One a lighter note .... I live in the outback of South Dakota and last winter I captured two of the biggest coyotes I have ever seen feeding on a white tail deer with a game camera .... I would say about 65 pounds each

My comment
How about posting the Lord's commentary regarding homosexuality .... then give the interpretation
What does He say .... as if anyone cares?

Re: HRe: Clerk refuses to issue marriage license to gays
"The problem with giving the Lord's word on homosexuality is that people are already confused about what this problem is about. It's not about homosexuality as such, it's about marriage. We could give the scripture that shows God made marriage for a man and a woman but then we get into this huge flap about all the polygamy in the Old Testament which they claim must have been legitimate because there is nothing except the scripture about one man and one woman which they don't think is sufficient. It is for me, but nobody accepts anything I say here.
Stand up and be counted Faith .... rock and roll .... it is you who possesses the truth about the matter .... state your case and be done with it
The Lord has dealt the cards, and will trump the behavior [Romans 1]
And multiple marriage seen in the OT is human behavior and not necessarily the Lord's preference .... many acts of humanity are recorded in scripture, but not all are done good taste
The Lord only intervenes if He has a direct purpose
And whether ringo lies or not makes little difference .... one must consider the source

Re: HRe: Clerk refuses to issue marriage license to gays
The issue above is moot
It is the Lord who ultimately gives life and takes it away .... in the final judgment [Revelation 20:11-15]
What humans do is another matter and only temporal
