Out of interests, what do you suppose mainstream Christianity should do regarding this matter. Should they:
- interpret the Bible in such a way so that homosex ceases to be considered sinful?
- stop considering the Bible to be Gods revelation to man?
- do something else?
They could simply pretend that the bible doesn't say anything about homosexuality the same way they pretend it doesn't say anything about slavery
Exodus
21:2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.
21:3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.
21:4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.
21:5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:
21:6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.
