(33,982 posts)Also 2 is technically incorrect. Jesus didn't say anything at all about gay people. Not one word.
Matthew 19:4-6, jesus refers to Genesis 1:27 and 2:24, and in doing so, omits or is silent on the issue of same-sex or LGBT pair bonds in general, and that is construed by many Christians to be a positive, exclusionary statement, but in actuality, the biblical character of jesus utters a sum total of 0 words about this issue.
So there is literally nothing he said to separate LGBT people from the superset of "all people", which I would find a satisfactory position, if indeed I believed the biblical character of jesus existed, and had divine authority. But you will not find anything resembling universal acceptance of that position in American Christians.
