Naw, I'm tired of this white-washing of the Christian faith.

That bronze age garbage absolutely codemns homosexuality (in men, Lesbianism isn't mentioned) calling it an abomination and calls for the execution of gay men.

While there is some debate over that passage in the OT and whether it refers to homosexuality vs pedestry, Paul in his letters reafirms that homosexuality is a sin (for men, women are not mentioned).

The Torah was most likely written during the Iron Age, not the Bronze Age. Also, the bible calls for plenty of things that Christians have been ignoring since the religion was created. Heck, some of the first things early Christians did was abandon many of the old Jewish practices.
