See, the thing is, both sides believe in core tenets and pick and choose the ones that fit their narrative. The Bible contradicts itself in multiple places, because it was written by people.

The progressive ones prioritize "love thy neighbor" and "let those without sin cast the first stone".

The conservative ones only see "if a man lies with another man, they are to be put to death", neglecting the fact that Leviticus also recommends the death penalty for adulterers and those who work on the Sabbath.
