    Loyal female companionship is covered in the book of Ruth. Her pledge of loyalty, "your people will be my people," is particularly moving. Not a lesbian relationship, but a solid relationship cemented by love.

    Homosexuality is a sin, it's not something you're born with. It says in the bible man shall not lay with another man or they must be stoned( this applies to woman as well.)

    THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BIBLE TO SAY THAT THE ABRAHAMIC GOD FROWNS ON HOMOSEXUALITY!

    The book of LEVITICUS pertains to Levites, people of the Hebrew tribe of Levi, who served particular religious duties for the Israelites as priests. The entire book of Leviticus is composed of priestly literature and priestly code. Majority of scholars agree that the Pentateuch received its final form during the Persian period (538–332 BC) but that Leviticus had a long period of growth, with many additions and editings, before reaching that form.

    One of the Levi high priests received many complaints of children and young men being sodomized (i.e. rape), and to prevent this, he wrote this law:

    Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."

    This law has nothing to do with homosexuality (i.e. consensual sex between adults). How would the high priest come to know of what consenting adults do behind closed doors? Rape involving women was already spelt out in the commandments “thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife”

    However, people were still not deterred from committing sodomy, so the Levite high priest had to write this:

    Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them"

    ROMANS, short for Epistle (i.e. letter) to the Romans, was composed by the Apostle Paul around 55 AD, to explain that salvation is offered through Jesus Christ. Paul travelled around the territories, evangelizing. He suffered from hallucinations and epilepsy. He was trying to convert Romans to Christianity by scaring them with every shocking, titillating thing he could think of.

    “…I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God to give salvation to every one that believes….For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith:…. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men… Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator …God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly…..”

    That is clearly evangelizing and proselytism. Convert to Christianity or face the wrath of god. JUST BECAUSE A RABID PAUL WROTE THIS TO THE ROMANS, DOES NOT MEAN THAT JESUS OR GOD WAS AGAINST HOMOSEXUALITY. Paul never even met Jesus – so how could he even know anything. Similarly Paul also wrote First Epistle to the CORINTHIANS, in which 6:9-10 says the same thing.
