LinkA lot of homophobia stems from misunderstanding and confusion! So I´m just gonna use my very big brain and adhd to infodump about a topic i had to research to figure out what tf i am lol <3
LGBT is an initialism that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender.
Lesbian - A woman who likes women.
Gay - A man who likes men.
Homosexual - The attraction of the same gender, no matter your gender. both lesbians and gays fall under the homosexual label.
Bisexual - The attraction to both your and other genders. At least 2.
Transgender - When you identify as a gender other than what you were born as.
The bible has been translated over 3400 times! Because of this it would be easy to misinterpret some of the verses! Most of the verses homophobic people might use to condemn it aren´t about homosexuality itself, more over r//pe and attempted r//pe, pedophilia, and more.
¨There are seven texts often cited by Christians to condemn homosexuality: Noah and Ham (Genesis 9:20–27), Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:1–11), Levitical laws condemning same-sex relationships (Leviticus 18:22, 20:13), two words in two Second Testament vice lists (1 Corinthians 6:9–10; 1 Timothy 1:10), and Paul's letter to the Romans (Romans 1:26–27). The author believes that these do not refer to homosexual relationships between two free, adult, and loving individuals. They describe rape or attempted rape (Genesis 9:20–27, 19:1–11), cultic prostitution (Leviticus 18:22, 20:13), male prostitution and pederasty (1 Corinthians 6:9–10; 1 Timothy 1:10), and the Isis cult in Rome (Romans 1:26–27). If the biblical authors did assume homosexuality was evil, we do not theologize off of their cultural assumptions, we theologize off of the texts we have in the canon. The author attempts to introduce some new arguments into this long-standing and passionate debate.¨
