Is Homosexuality a Perversion of God's Will and Creation? (Romans 1:26-27)
So, I've been doing a series on whether transgenderism is sinful or not, because well, I'm trans and a Christian, and want to destroy the harmful idea that the Bible is against being transgender. Now, I'm not gay, at all (I'm asexual), but the church is still propagating the harmful idea that homosexuality is a sin, when it absolutely is not, and today I will do my part in the first part of this series explaining how the Bible does NOT condemn homosexuality. Anyway, let's get on with it.
So, there are a few ways we can attack the idea that this verse condemns homosexuality. First, this verse is not talking about homosexuals, at all. It's talking about straight people who commit homosexual acts. At the time it was common practice among many of the false religions to have their followers do sacrifices to false gods by committing homosexual acts. So, in other words, it's sinful to go against your nature, which leads to the next point. If the point of these verses is that it's sinful to go against your nature, how are homosexual acts against the nature of a homosexual person? They aren't. They were born that way, and if they were born as homosexuals, then wouldn't committing heterosexual acts be against their nature? The answer is: yes. Thus, this verse cannot possibly be talking about those born as homosexuals.
So, there we go, there's my article defending homosexuality against claims by fundamentalist Christians claiming that the Bible condemns it using these verses. I'll probably do another article or two on this, but next article like this that I do will either be on transgenderism or asexuality, not decided yet.
