This reminds me of those "Where's Waldo" books. Man, I fucking hated those books. Find this guy standing around all these other guys! This sure beats playing Oregon Trail on the Apple IIe! I think the worst one ever was this one in "The Great Waldo Hunt" where there's like 1000 alternate world bizarro Waldos, and you're tasked with finding the one true real Waldo. The only way to do this is to check each and every last one of the little bastards to see whether or not they have things like goatees or different hats or the wrong number of stripes or a heroin needle or OH GOD I WANT TO KILL MYSELF PLEASE GOD MAKE MY SUFFERING END HUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH GUNSHOT TO THE FACE
Let's see: Jesus never married, hung out with 12 guys, 'loved Lazarus', talked about being 'fishers of men', had a prostitute as a friend, and wore a dress.
There wasn´t internet either, there weren´t welfare funds, there weren´t purity balls or nonsense like that. Homosexuals were, only that they were not in a BLTG movement. And how can you be certain that some of his disciples, thousands anomym people were, only that they chose to be celibate or were discreet about their condition?, remember, the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absense.
Was it John or Saul/Paul who was the homophobe? Can't remember who and it doesn't matter. Jesus said nothing on the matter. Oh - except that you need to follow Mosaic law - there is no new convenent. So start stoning people for what they eat or wear. If they have unruly kids, then they must die too.
Paul appears to have been asexual - not especially sexually attracted to either sex. Maybe that fall on the road to Damascus (back when he was still Saul) damaged more more than just his sight. As for the original twelve disciples, based on early church documents (but not the Bible itself, except in the case of Peter) all were married except John, "the disciple whom Jesus loved ... which also leaned on his breast at supper".
well, he had a whole bunch of disciples right? so according to statistics and the fact that it was, what, 13 dudes "travelling together" all the time preacing love and tolerance (hey, fundies, guess what? you're kicking his teachings in the nuts!)...
Yeah, I see a corpulent redneck with silly hairdo, loud polyester suit and big black book, following Jesus around, carrying on like a total brown-noser whenever Jesus uttered a word....
13 unmarried guys walking around the countryside in sandals and robes preaching love? Um.......I think the answer might just be obvious......
King James I of England (you know, the one who came up with the KJV) was notorious for his homosexual flings. He once said, in reference to his boy-toy, the Duke of Buckingham: "Christ had his John and I have my George".
You're right, I don't see a homosexual. But, hey, I don't see Jesus, either.
What is this, Sunday school hide-and-seek?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
