"People who use the Bible as a platform for their narrowmindedness (anti-gay, antiabortion, antisex, antifornication, etcetera), are just that narrowminded, and miss the entire point of why this is the best selling historical fiction IN HISTORY"
WOW, you're a Christian? I'm confused because I thought God destroyed S&M for homsexuality and Paul says to flee fornication. As far as calling the bible "fiction", that suggests that most of it is make believe. Could you enlighten me on where those parts are? If the Bible is your guide book, should you not know what it is guiding you for? And it is NOT anti-sex. "Be fruitful and multiply" sounds pro-sex to me. You sound more like a non-believer.
"It is meant only as a personal guide, not the end-all, be-all authority on what is right and what is wrong"
If it's not then pray tell what is. Man?
