There are many rules or laws or commandments found in the Bible that we would never follow now. We have evolved socially and spiritually, so there are very few Christians who follow the Bible to the letter or take it literally or believe every sentence in it is relevant in the modern world. The men who wrote the Bible, or the Talmud, or the Quran (or fill in the blank with religious scripture) didn’t know what we now know about homosexuality and its biological etiology. So we can cut them some slack with regard to the philosophies they espoused regarding sexuality. They had no way of knowing that being gay is an inborn characteristic that is not chosen, much less “curable.”

But we NOW know differently, so I feel there is no excuse for the vitriol leveled at gay people today. When we know better, we do better, and I believe many of the authors of these religious texts would do better today if they had the benefit of the science to help them understand things they previously did not understand.

There are many modern day Christians who accept the science and do not label gay people as “sinners.” And they would appreciate being given the CHOICE of what to watch or what to allow their children to watch.
