Some people who read the Bible find slavery; you must do this, you must do that. The message I have found has been freedom, freedom from all the crazy laws of Leviticus, freedom from depravity, freedom from the fear of death. One Episcopal priest sees this expression of freedom being embraced by their church:
"I could argue that the overwhelming emphasis on inclusion in the New Testament trumps the two or three passages from St. Paul that may condemn homosexuality; just as his sublime passages on freedom trump his support of slavery. "
Unfortunately, the Bible is confusing enough to let many people find different understanding within it. As is the trouble in every freedom-oriented society, we must accept those who find that different understanding. although, we do not have to be bound by it.
