Leviticus also says that you shouldn't have sexual relations with an animal, but is that too, outdated and shouldn't be followed? Should we be allowed to have sexual relations with animals?
As I said the new testament, implemented a new law that amended the old testament, but this did not get rid of ALL those old customs but only certain ones. The fact homosexuality is denounced twice proves this.

There you go...equating sex between two consenting, loving adults with bestiality. Hmmm....
But on that point, at least it appears you see that those rules are evaluated in context and not merely because "the Bible says so." Maybe this is progress. Showin' a little flexibility there...awesome.
Ok, tomorrow we'll talk about the New Testament - there's a lot less to cover there in terms of actual quotes - but the discussion can be more complicated. But at least we made it to that point and that's a good sign.
In the meantime, I have some nasty accounting homework to do.
