>It is also written in the bible that women are unclean and should cover their heads.
Not to mention that the Old Testament condems masturbation as vehemently as homosexuality, and the same passage from the New Testament (Romans) that the homophobes like to quote also mentions thieves and liars -- one wonders why the homophobes aren't getting their panties in a knot over masturbators, thieves, and liars as they do over homosexuals?
>However, these are words of men. Everything in the Bible cannot be taken literally.
Hear! Hear!
Even *if* the Bible originally WAS 'the infallible word of God', one can't ignore the fact that it's gone thru numerous translations by fallable men; even the writers of the King James Bible put a caveat in their forward to that Bible stating that fact.
The bottom line is, the homophobic community has a perfect right to practice whatever flavor of superstition it wishes, but they do NOT have the right to impose their superstitious agenda upon the rest of society...
