[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm fine with people reading the Gospels literally, or not reading them literally. I even wish some of the Christianity bashers here had a clue about what's really in the gospels.

There are a few things in Paul's letters I'm not so comfortable with (anti-homosexuality). But I'm in the camp that thinks[b] Paul [/b]shouldn't be taken literally for our day, because Paul was writing pastoral letters and[b] is very specific to his time and context.[/b][/quote]

Like everything else in the bible.[/quote]

I hate derailing this thread. But just a question. So, do Christians believe in the story of Sodom and Gomorrah? This story is mentioned in the Quran and homosexuality is expressly prohibited. [/quote]

I definitely don't wan't to speak for "all" Christians, which I think is an ongoing problem in this forum. But I think a lot of what goes on the the Old Testament was nice stories (and some not so nice stories). Jesus didn't talk much about those stories and he explicitly got rid of a lot of the dietary, clothing and other rules.[/quote]
