    Just fyi. The original Hebrew version is anti pedo not anti gay. I’m certain this link won’t be popular, but . …timesofisrael.com/redefining-leviticus-2013/

      The thing that bothers me with that explanation, is that if "where the Torah is concerned, every word counts" - why didn't they use the word 'boy' instead of the more ambiguous 'male'? Seems an intentional choice to refer to men and boys together.

      Also Leviticus is old testament. So this is less relevant/generally superceded by newer text.

        Only for Christians. I would assume this still holds for Jewish people, as well as some christians who still holds to the Old Testament due to Jesus saying that the old text will not be superceded.

        Because the New Testament is better? The NT is especially sexist towards women. Like:

        • they need to be quiet (1 Cor 14:34-35)
        • they can’t divorce but men can (Matthew 5:32 and 19:9) and it implies she has no autonomy since his act alters how she is viewed
        • also 1 Timothy 2:9-15 is quite the ride, with dressing modestly to worship God, be quiet, fully submit, no teaching a man, be quiet again, men came first, women sinned first, and only birthing children can save them.

        Holy shit. Those are just a few.

        But it is true the Old Testament is quite the doozy.

        We gotta go back to the good Old Testament for one of my favs:

        Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.”

        Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, “No, my friends. Don’t do this wicked thing. Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do what you like with them. But don’t do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof.”

        The later his wife was turned to salt cause she bad (because of course only women do bad things, didn’t yiu know? /s). Then his daughters, who had been spared what you read above, wound up getting their dad drunk and fucking him in a cave to continue the bloodline.

        800 years? He had other sons and daughters, with who? His mom? His brothers? I know Christians love incest but 2 brothers can’t have kids AFAIK. So he had sex with his mom?

    What i interpreted is basically if you have gay sex your sentence is to smoke a bunch of weed

    Iirc Oregon or Colorado legalized pot and gay marriage at virtually the same time. I remember the memes of a freaked out preacher yelling “NO NOT LIKE THAT!!” lol. Good times.

    Imagine believing your morally justified telling some 13 year old queer kid they’re an abomination because of some fucking verse in your copy of the Goatherd’s Guide to the Galaxy.

    So wasn’t the old testament superceded by the New testament of Jesus Christ? That’s literally the whole thing of Christianity. The old testament is basically Judaism isn’t it?

    It’s about time someone made some sense from this hateful and damaging book. Next time I decide to eat some gummies, I’ll be sure to do so with an open-minded male friend. Let’s rock and roll.
