Whenever I go into Extended Discussion (a place that is far from what it claims to be) and see Christian threads about homosexuality, it usually breaks down into the Christians saying that A) those parts of the Bible are old and basically "thrown away" or B) I get linked to this massive thread claiming that in the more accurately translated version of the Bible, it says that homosexuality is not forbidden.
Now, I always get linked to that Gaia thread which claims to be proof that homosexuality is not a sin (along with some condescending remarks.) But whenever I read the "real" Bible quotes, I still get the same message. And when I say that, I usually get flamed and then get told that "you are interpreting it the wrong way!"
But if it is open to interpretation, doesn't it mean it's just that? Open to interpretation? And thus the word of God are the words of those who interpret it and thus there is no such thing as a "true" or "bad" Christian?
It makes me wonder how they could even take a stance on anything.
