Meanwhile, the sheep and the goats part just gets ignored
I'm sure they'll do some backflips to say "the brothers only mean people I like", but then there's the "who is my neighbor?" part.
But they're not sincere, so the text doesn't matter.
-Leviticus 20:13
^ The only part of the bible they care about.
That one is really about having sex with kids. The wording was supposed to be "boys" not "men". It is saying to be a pedophile.
Yeah, but this is the version they really like.
GOP: Not like that!
As if putting the victims to death is any better
Romans also talks about homosexuality and why it is a sin
but we shouldnt KILL homosexual people like WHAT
They're foaming at the mouth with their hate, and they drool over the possibility of killing the gays. They want this back:
I hope they turn to Christ.
See, that's the thing. They think they are on Christ's side (or he's on their side). The Bible is the absolute word of God, so they think there's a divine mandate to kill the gays and, if the trinity thing means Jesus = God, the divine mandate from Christ is to kill the gays.
Also gay sex is icky to them, so there's an extra bit to justify killing the gays.
Honestly, I'm surprised that we haven't seen a Spanish-Inquisition on this yet, but I'm sure Republicans are working up to it.
