I don't want to tangent too much on this religion trail, but I just want to include my beliefs, in opposition to an earlier post, I don't think the Bible is flawed or has flawed information, we as humans are flawed. We read verses and figure out how they best apply to our lives. We then find religious leaders who interpret those same verses, and entrust them that they will guide us how the Lord is leading them.
For thousands of years we've been doing that as a people, and those people we entrust do not always have the best motives. The Bible has always been constant and non-changing in it's stance. Notice how it's always been Churches who have been changing. We're talking about the same institution that said it was demonic to be black, that if you masturbated you would be sent to hell, if you got married to a non-white you were going to hell, if you beat up your wife to a pulp God smiled upon you.
All of these things were because spiritual leaders with their own agenda misinterpreted verses and twisted them to be what they wanted them. The people who listened and respected that spiritual leader were the ones who followed them, and those people will have to answer up to what they did in the end.
The Bible says a few times to "test the Lord your God" and other verses relating to spiritual testing. In my eyes, the Bible was made to be read two ways, logically (e.g. reading the verses, stories, etc) and emotionally/feeling (e.g. praying, seeking wisdom, using your discernment) It's why there are Biblical Scholars and Spiritual Scholars. There are sects of the Christian church that do nothing but recite verses over and over, memorizing, reading, but not using much of their heart to feel out God and what He wants. Conversely, there are sects which do nothing but pray and seek out God's heart while not reading a single sentence in the Bible.
With that said, I think if you read verses that say "Homosexuality is a sin and disgusting to God" and you just accept that as the constant truth without praying about it, using your discernment, and really figuring out what the verse truly means practially, you're going to lead yourself and others astray in a judgmental path that causes so many of the teen suicides.
Oppositionally, I think there is the other camp which can just say, "Well, God makes everyone perfect and He wouldn't make someone to send them to hell" you miss out on some stuff too. There are verses in the Bible which specifically talk about requiring to commit your life to God in order to see the kingdom of heaven. God does make people, every single day, who may not ever see the kingdom of heaven because they do not choose Him. There are also verses which can contradict statements about homosexuality if read wrong, and unless you have read and understood those verses in context, both camps will be angry at each other and screaming until their blue in the face that the other is wrong.
To summize all of my ranting here, Jesus said to love others as you love God, and to love your enemies. Hate was never preached by Jesus, or any other spiritual leader from other religions e.g. Buddah, Mohamed, etc. If we are to love everyone, and accept them just as they are, then that throws out the option to hate or judge others. I'm not the one to say who is going to heaven or hell, nor am I the one to say which spiritual teaching is the right one, because honestly, that's not my place. Even if it was, I wouldn't do it, again looking to my example of Jesus, He never paraded around telling whom was going to heaven and hell. If someone directly asked Him about what they were doing in their life and what it would lead to, He was not afraid to say "Dude, you're doing it all wrong, do it this way and I promise that things will be fine" in much more eloquent terms of course.
My point is that I want to put this religion trail in perspective. Love and acceptance has been preached by every major spirituality, and even if you don't embrace spirituality, political leaders of all nationalities promote the same thing, even if their actions don't always reflect their words. That's what's especially wonderful about this LPSG community, is that we are able to accept each other, and be able to help each other through love and acceptance.
Iron sharpens iron, right?
