[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a Christian who doesn't believe that God has an issue with homosexuality.

But I'm a little confused by the logic that if God had an issue with something he'd have gotten rid of it.

I'm sure that God has an issue with the way we destroy our environment, or child abuse, or terrorism.  I'm sure he had an issue with the Holocaust.   So, it's hard for me to believe that "he lets it happen" is an indication that he's happy about something.[/quote]

So what do you make of the Bible verses that condemn sexual immorality and homosexual acts?[/quote]

I believe that the New Testament replaced the Old, and that the few verses in the New Testament that seem to condemn homosexuality are written by authors who are products of their time, and are difficult to translate.  On the other hand, in the Gospels we have many verses that come from Jesus himself and demonstrate radical love and acceptance for everyone.  When there are conflicts like this, I think we have to go with what Jesus himself said.[/quote]
