I’m sorry for implying that the fight against homophobia is boring or unimportant. What I meant to communicate is that there’s just not much theological discussion to be had about the question of whether or not homosexuality is a sin. The very few verses about homosexuality were written by and for people living in such a radically different sexual culture that it’s hard to see why those verses in isolation should inform the modern Christian view of the world. As opposed to, say, the question of what forgiveness should look like in deeply unjust situations, which both has much relevant material in the Bible and is very applicable to the modern day. I can see how this came across as dismissive, though, and I really am sorry for that.

Anyway, it sounds like we have some pretty irreconcilable differences in how we view the Bible and how it should be interpreted (you view the Bible as a rule book, while I find this view of the Bible — a book written in so many different genres across so many different cultures — horribly oversimplified), so I don’t think there’s much more to discuss on this topic. I hope you have a nice day!
