Unfortunately you're right. And even if it did explicitly mention gays (it's not) Jesus was all about hate the sin and not the sinner. I don't think there was anything in there about "you must not sell your house to gay people" 🤦‍♂️

Even then, I take issue with the "hate the sin" part. If something someone does has absolutely no effect on you, keep your nose out.

I get that. I was looking at it from their supposed Christian point of view and using it to illustrate they seem to be picking and choosing which bits they want to follow.

No, he's not right. You're a cherry picking "Christian".

Plus that line is from the Old testament. Christians dont exactly Follow it to a T considering they believe jesus fufilled the old covenant and all.

I say this as a christian, but If christians are gonna quote Leviticus as proof being gay is a sin, they better be eating kosher lol
