I will start this out with a disclaimer that I do not follow Christianity at all…
If you are a bible-follower and friendly towards homosexuals, then I guess you’re skipping over that part where it says “homosexuality is an abomination”.
That’s one of the many reasons I can’t look to the Bible for guidance. I have some gay friends and they deserve all the love and consideration everyone should get.
To those that say the Bible deserves to be followed, but exclude the parts where it says homosexuality is an abomination, I wonder what other parts you ignore? AFAIK, one isn’t supposed to flip through the Bible and pick and choose which sections should be followed.
This is one of the many reasons why I consider the Bible immoral, and following it either immoral or morally and logically inconsistent.
I respectfully disagree, Jesus doesn’t even mention homosexuality.
Paul mentions homosexuality, but Paul is very notably not Jesus, he’s basically just a guy who rolls up after Jesus is dead and says he’s an apostle now. There’s also significant cultural context there, and his objection to sex applied to all recreational sex regardless of orientation.
The Old Testament also mentions homosexuality. I am not sufficiently educated on Hebrew culture to comment on those passages, but I do know that Christians are very explicitly not bound by Old Testament law.
