What the Bible Really Says About Homosexuality
I just finished reading a fantastic book that I had ordered a while back after watching the episode of 30 Days where the straight, conservative, Mid-Western guy went to live in San Francisco for 30 days to see what it was like to walk in someone else shoe as it were. That's the whole premise of the show.
Anyway, at one point during the episode when the straight guy went to talk to the pastor at Metropolitan Community Church in San Francisco and she suggested that he read What the Bible Really Says About Homosexuality, I was intrigued. So I purchased the book from Amazon.com. At the time I was still taking classes so I just recently got around to reading it and I was quite impressed!
Although Neo-Christians will stand on the hilltops and scream that the book is bad and gay people are bad, the Catholic priest that wrote it makes a very strong, a very convincing argument as to why the Bible does NOT condemn homosexuality. And before anyone starts screaming about verses he's got those too!
Of course hate filled Neo-Christians are not going to listen to reason and they have no understanding whatsoever about love and charity, but for those others of you out there that are capable of using your mind and appreciating a very well argued point of view I highly recommend reading this book. It's very enlightening, especially if you're struggling with understanding the subject matter.
