My religious (cousin’s) wife and my anal sister are pressing me to quote “the” bible where Jesus says homosexuality is an abomination. I do not see reference to selling boys at the temple and was wondering if anyone can tell me where to look and what version bible it would be in. I argue that Jesus didn’t say it specifically about homosexuality (not from god through human Moses). Anyone?

He said Nothing about it, and in fact some scholars point out where some of the Disciples were more special than others.
P.s. he threw moneylenders out of the Temple!

That’s where I heard that Jesus said it was an abomination. However, the translated word means taboo, not abomination.

Leviticus, Corinthians, and Paul are sources for the Bibles homophobic stance. Jesus himself never said anything relating to homosexuality. He had a prostitute for a girlfriend and Moses "10 Commandments" never specifically addressed homosexuality but rather Adultery. It is funny how Christians become the ultimate cherry pickers. The Story of Sodom & Gamora was another slight against sex in the old testimate, however it was not against homosexuality specifically. It was against wicked lust on behalf of both sexes and a large majority of it was due to the lude and adulterous behavior and blatant disregard for decency. (Genesis 19:24)

It's in Leviticus. Do a google search. Easy peasy. But the character Jesus was not free of saying stupid shit like "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." This is Matthew. Violent dude! Also, he did not disavow the crazy crap from Leviticus when he clearly said in Matthew 5-17 to 18 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished." Meaning he did not come to change the crazy Leviticus laws.

Taking a verse out of the old testament and wrapping hatred around it. That is one biggest reasons I left the dark side and began my journey of enlightenment. I'm a bi man and not ashamed of it now.

Jesus made no references to being gay. Tell them to read the gospels themselves, if they're xtian that shouldn't be too hard for them.

My sister is dyslexic so hates to read! I said I don’t do research for adults

Paul was a sex phobic closet case, in my oh so humble opinion.

The ONLY New Testament reference to same sex behavior is from Paul, (in Romans,) not Jesus

Thank you.

I don't understand. If they care so damn much about a Biblical reference, let them reference it. It is not your job to prove them right. ...especially since they are wrong, but regardless.

Agreed!

They love to twist words from “AFA is anti-LBGTQ” to “the bible says LGBTQ is an abomination.”

@EllenDale It's really frustrating.
