Is this really a valid basis for condemning homosexuality?
22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
It forbids lying with man as you would with a woman, but that could mean all kinds of things. That could mean relating to a man as one would with a woman. It could mean that romantic relationships are forbidden, but not sexual ones.
Also, it says nothing about lesbian homosexuality. And it doesn't really explicitly mention gay sexuality.
The New Testament can be roughly divided into three sections, the first being the Gospels, of which my favorite is The Gospel According to Mark, which starts out with a reflection, or recap, on the the origin of Earth, man, and God's relationships to man. The Gospels are first-hand accounts of the life and times of Jesus Christ. Many of the books of the testament consist of the various letters of Paul, whose work makes up roughly the second portion of the New Testament.
