Love God and love your neighbour.Jesus gave only two commandments. Neither of which was being anti-gay. Are you gay, Joy4Uall ?In other words they would NOT abide by that religious ruling....just like gays should NOT be expected to follow the religious ruling of Christianity (that gay sex is wrong.)So if, say, my religion (just say), taught that being straight is wrong (our "prophet" tells us that), and that being gay is the only correct way
I think people would smell a rat, unless they were nihilistic in the extreme.
what two commandments did Jesus invent?
He was quoting Hillel. Hillel lived in Jerusalem---was a famous Talmudist and
INCESSANTLY quoted both then and now. ----He died just about the same
time that Jesus is said to have been born. Quotations from Hillel float around
LOTS amongst some Christian circles. You probably heard them but did
not know THE SOURCE. The little bit of Hebrew I know-----comes largely from
a trick conceived of by my Hebrew teacher-----he had us memorize "sayings"
Lots of organizations of jewish students are named for Hillel and some schools.
He would have been a registered democrat if he had been born in the USA the
year I was born-------Ie. he would have been a democrat before the donkey
got pixilated. I do not recall his making a comment on homosexuality---but
there is no doubt that he would have been entirely against executing them
