“God created Adam and Eve. The rest of the earth was populated by incest.” Why incest between consensual adults, before the time of Moses, was neither religiously nor genetically taboo.
A minister and a rabbi walk into a lesbian wedding…
I’ve been reading the internet chatter on this couple. And then the follow-up comments opposing those comments. And then the rebuttals to the comments opposing those comments. I did not see even one opinion on the Jewish-Christian issue. Apparently, gay trumps faith.

Even if you’re not joining a Seder this holiday, you can still observe the spirit of Passover. Take a moment each day this week to remember how God brought his people out of bondage with a strong arm.
Telling religious to Get Over It is the wrong message.
Dan Savage’s call for religious people to ignore the Bible divides Jewish and Christian communities and the LGBT community even further; and stems from a misunderstanding of what the Bible actually says. Savage, and others concerned with equality, should call upon us to stop ignoring it.
