I think Evangelical and extreme Christians...
Are absolutely correct, these morals SHOULD be law! 6%  6%  [ 6 ]
Are mostly right, but maybe a bit too intense. 12%  12%  [ 13 ]
Are mostly wrong, but we need the balance. 9%  9%  [ 9 ]
VERY WRONG! Christian morals are great for church, but church and state must remain separate! 73%  73%  [ 77 ]

That passage from Leviticus is meant to condemn the sin, but never the sinner. In this case, the physical act of buggery is a sin and thus condemned. Those who practise buggery are not condemned on account of who they are as human beings.

Is this so hard to understand???


I didn't think Christians looked to Leviticus to prescribe their behavior. To argue against homosexuality, better sources would be 1 Corinthians, or at the very least Romans.

That is, within the context of Christianity. Obviously non-Christians wouldn't generally care what those passages prescribe.
