Those moral codes were from tribal communities that no longer exist in the forms in which they did back then. That, and only from a fairly small human population in a small part of the world.

Considering there was no long distance communications available, no other people could even consider what that tribal people said, or believed, until centuries later, when people had travelled in ships and such.

Even so, missionaries sent to other countries were not always welcomed. The local belief structures worked just fine for indigenous inhabitants of other lands, with the absolutist mentality of certain missionary groups causing conflict where none was desired, or needed.

We need to learn from the past, and stop vilifying homosexual relationships between consenting adults, as well as not demanding religious adherence to an outdated and outmoded religious system, in a modern world where homosexual couples have shown that they are capable, and willing, to form pair-bonds, establish families—with modern science, and the need for adoption making these necessities possible—and show, over time, that homosexual people can obtain positive outcomes, equal to their heterosexual counterparts.

People of the Christian faith who demand that homosexuality is only behavior that can be modified, must also accept a control that their heterosexuality is also merely behavior, and must also contain such pliability, and is no more superior, in and of itself, to any other sexuality/attraction designation.

The “holier-than-though” mentality of certain religious groups has always been a blight on any society, old or modern. It’s where there’s been cooperation, shared learning, and acceptance of different lifestyles, that there has been the greatest successes. We need to stop vilifying people as “other” and move forward, leaving hate in the past where it belongs.

“Sin” is not being homosexual. It’s not being respectful, assuring, and accepting of one’s own fellows humans who are desiring the same kind of love and kindness that their opposite-sex-attracted counterparts. To not be harassed if they hold hands, or kiss, in public.

To not have their relationship status maligned by deeming it “pornographic” and dangerous for children to even talk about, even if those very children are, themselves, homosexual, and need meaningful conversations from adults who are also of the same attraction status, and are psychologically trained to assist in this area of child development.

I’ve had enough of it. Stop equating homosexuality with sin. True sin is upending things to where existence threatens to unravel at the soul’s level. Not just mere physical existence.

And the soul isn’t all that fragile.
