71. A moral issue, is it?
To the community of folks in Florida: Why do you continue to accept tax money from those immoral gays and lesbians? I mean, if they're not good enough to attend a public school, why are they being taxed to build, maintain and support them? Not to mention the administrators whose paychecks are derived in part from gay tax dollars.

Doesn't the community want to be perfect, even as their Father in Heaven is perfect?

As for mentions of homosexuality in the Bible, there really aren't any, as the word "homosexual" is a 19th century coinage, blending Latin and Greek forms. Any translation or paraphrase of the Bible that includes "homosexual" or any variant on the word reveals quite a bit more about the translator than it does about the ancient communities that produced those writings.
