In the bible it also says an eye for an eye and give out the other cheek...
The bible was written by men therefore it makes mistakes and contradicts itself...
If you are going to bring god into this, just remember that god is suppose to be love... And that none of us are god to judge anyone...
And before anyone brings out the final judgement... I'd like to believe god will "forgive" (theres nothing to forgive) someone more who's only "mistake" (it is not a mistake!) is to love someone with the same sex, then he will be willing to forgive someone who lived life hating people, played god by judging them, and did all that using god as an excuse...
Now to the person who said that homosexuals keep asking people to be tolerant but the homosexuals aren't tolerant with other peoples opinion. I have a few questions for you:
Have ever met someone who committed suicide because they were called homophobic over and over again?
Have you ever met someone that had to lie they're whole life saying they weren't homophobic when they knew they were?
Have you ever met someone who was dead scared their parents would find out they are homophobic?
I don't think you have...
There should be no tolerance for ignorance... And being homophobic, racist, and judging someone for their religion is being ignorant
