Hi.. well.. I've just been reading through some of the
articles written on your site.. and one of the problems that I noticed that
keeps coming up is what the Bible says about sex and homosexuality. I've
attached a couple of files ** that go into this topic in depth and give
all the Bible quotes that explain the real meaning behind the illustrative use
of sexual terms in scripture.

* The meaning behind the illustrative use of sexuality in the Bible | |
Why people read such literal interpretations into these sexual terms is beyond me. It seems that few people bother to check if what that are saying is actually true... and simplistic remarks about the Bible saying sex or homosexuality is a sin is just not true. I am constantly dismayed that when I hear that religions are teaching such things.. since they are not only deceiving themselves.. but are deceiving others also... and making a mockery of the Bible by their doing so..<sigh>
"And God says: "For the reason that this people have come near with their mouth, and have glorified me merely with their lips, and they have remove their heart itself far away from me, and their fear towards me becomes men's commandment that is being taught, therefore here I am, the One that will act wonderfully again with this people, in a wonderful manner and with something wonderful; and the wisdom of their wise men must perish, and the very understanding of their discreet men will conceal itself." Woe to those who are going very deep in concealing counsel from God himself, and whose deeds have occurred in a dark place, while they say: "Who is seeing us, and who is knowing of us?" The perversity of you men!"
