Last evening, I was out with my friend Charlotte and I was talking about my recent postings on this site regarding homosexuality and the Bible. I was telling her how I often take on subjects both here and in school (grad school) that on the outset are very interesting but once I begin doing the work, turn out to be extremely time consuming. Unfortunately, time is something I have in short supply these days. So, I've decided to give you some resources that I have found in my research who pretty much have this issue covered. However, it's true that they do not cover it in the way I set out to do. Meaning, the issue is covered in taking apart the typical scriptures in the Bible that have been used (abusively) against the community in suppot of the Fundamentalist Christian's view that homosexuality is somehow ungodly. If you are truely interested in this subject and want to be able to talk about it effectively, then I would urge you to look at these sources. As you know, if you've been keeping up with my own exploration in this, I had proposed to look at it through Christ's own words and actions. This, as far as I know, has not been done previously. I think this is an area I'd like to look at more closely down the road but right now I'm way too swamped with thesis work and the daily grind.
