Lots of the New Right look to the old testemant to justify their codemnation on gay people. It says that, yes it is wrong.
You know, it also says that you can burn yor mother for wearing a garment made of two different threads, that a misbehaving child can be brought to the gates of a city and clubbed to death, that slavery is acceptable, that a family member can be stoned infront of the entire village for planting different crops side by side, that a man can marry many women, that touching a pig is a sin, as is touching a scaled creature, that if a women gives birth to a girl she has to stay in bed for days not washing, and that if you work on the sabbath you can be put to death.
Does that sound like a religion that would justify Black Sabbath?
Islam has been around less, it is the youngest religion. People need to stop thinking it harbers no freedom and the like.
That is why the East partly hates the West, because of their complete ignorance of a religion that in many ways has the potential to be better than theirs. Again, The Yanks need to stop listening to their racist media.
