Well, this is old news. This came out last month.
I will start this out with a disclaimer that I do not follow Christianity at all....
If you are a bible-follower and friendly towards homosexuals, then I guess you're skipping over that part where it says "homosexuality is an abomination".
That's one of the many reasons I can't look to the Bible for guidance. I have some gay friends and they deserve all the love and consideration everyone should get.
To those that say the Bible deserves to be followed, but exclude the parts where it says homosexuality is an abomination, I wonder what other parts you ignore? AFAIK, one isn't supposed to flip through the Bible and pick and choose which sections should be followed.
This is one of the many reasons why I consider the Bible immoral, and following it either immoral or morally and logically inconsistent.
The old testament says a lot of things (in ARAMAIC) that have been translated by fallible human hands a hundred times with implicit bias. It's a game of telephone that's been going for thousands of years. It didn't mean "gay people are bad".
