God has more important things to talk about than this boring topic. I follow the Old Testament and there is nothing there about homosexuality. Leviticus 20:13 is mistranslated. What is translated as "as he lies with" actually doesn't have the word "as" at all. So it should just be "he lies with" and the meaning is that 2 men can't have sex with 1 woman which makes logical sense because this results in uncertain paternity. The other 4 references are from the New Testament which isn't my book. But I would remind Christians that Jesus didn't mention homosexuality either. My main point is that there are much more important topics than homosexuality, and modern Christians seem to avoid all the important topics. May modern Christians burn in hell along with the rest of modern western culture.

This is interesting as fuck. I'm curious about your allusion to modern western culture. How are you defining that?

Cultures can't really be defined, only described. I mean how would you define French culture or Japanese culture?

That said, western culture has been decaying since at least 1920 and became fully intolerable around 2000. It is extremely intolerant and hates free speech. (The only public place where I live where I can speak freely is the local mosque, and I am not Muslim.) Modern western culture is hostile to intelligence, beauty, tradition, honor, and all other worthwhile values.

Thanks. I was mostly curious about where you'd put the start date but your last sentence is also helpful. What do you mean by hostility towards beauty? I guess I don't see that but I'd like to hear your perspective.

Modern art and modern architecture are incredibly ugly. These are an intentional rejection of beauty in favor of ugliness.
