    "When Jesus came to Earth, he abolished all of those except the gay thing"

    (Actual argument I have heard)

        Jesus doesn’t, but Paul states that homosexuality is a sin a few times. (Although some or all of those are later interpolations and deliberate mistranslations)

        Yep, they will say "new covenant the old covenant doesn't apply" but will then say well, all that stuff in the old covenant, we don't have to follow it anymore, but it's still a "guide" for what's right and wrong. People like Sorkin think Christians haven't already figured out how to contort the Bible into whatever they want. It's literally what Christians have done for nearly 2,000 years.

        I have no idea where Jesus said the gay stuff still counted though lol

        There's an apocryphal Biblical passage stating that, just after Judas Iscariot kisses Jesus's cheek to identify him to the Romans, Jesus whispers back "No Homo".

        I believe it's in the Book of Chad.
