Gotten from Daily KOS clip from The West Wing, when Martin Sheen, as The President, does a smack down of Dr Jacobs, a woman, with a PHD in English Literature, no less, who argues on her show about homosexuality being an abomination, according to The Bible.
People always want to quote the Bible, but it always seems to be the Old Testament they want to quote, when they want to put down Homosexuality, or when they want to prove how righteous they are, but then conveniently forget about all the other stuff, which is in there, which according to our current day, would never be tolerated, because it is bat shit crazy!
Isn't that why there is the New Testament? Where God got tired of all the man-made laws, which were being passed off as being what God wanted, so he sent Jesus to get his people back on track? They ignore all of the other stuff and how crazy it is, but somehow homosexuality is an abomination?
What gives anyone the right to talk about the abomination of homosexuality, but then say nothing about all the other bat shit crazy stuff which is in there. It's a lot like the Middle East, where they take a lot of things literally and don't really think it through.
I'm not a Bible Thumper and I can't quote chapter and verse anywhere in the Bible, my memory isn't that good. All I know is I try to treat people as I want to be treated and try to do as Jesus would want me to do.
More of my thoughts below the fold.
