I would have to agree with you that it's extremely problematic to try and make a Biblical case against homosexuality solely by referencing the book of Leviticus. However, I disagree with some of your other premises, and especially the idea of ALL sex being impure and broken. In truth, impurity and brokenness only started after the Fall. But even before the Fall, man and woman were designed to enjoy sexual union (Genesis 2:24), feeling no shame in their nakedness (2:25), and even being commanded to "Be fruitful and increase in number" (1:28). Your point about bodily discharges remains an interesting one (I had to look up the passage myself to get its meaning) -- but it seems to me from reading the text that it has much more to do with the fluids themselves (semen and blood) than it does with the acts (at least in Leviticus 18).Eric Aspwww.ericasp.comnoreply@blogger.com
