What are some sites that have translations of the Bible that are pro-homosexuality?
They ARE out there, right?
I’ll probably get bashed for this, but as a Christian, it’s hard for me to accept that a certain kind of love can be a sin. I’ve never been fully on board with the whole "homosexuality is a sin" deal, and frankly, I don’t want to be.
I’d rather not get preached at in the answers – if you can just provide me with sites for alternate interpretations of the Bible referring to homosexuality, that’d be great.
Thanks so much! 
You have to love how some of the homophobic types use the "homosexuality is a choice" canard – even though it’s just a matter of being attracted to a certain gender, which one CANNOT control.
The part about animals being "confused" is outrageous, too. Dogs hump legs & such as a show of dominance, not out of confusion. And many species DO have homosexual members, primarily in instances where the population nears their habitat’s sustainable threshold. It’s a natural mechanism to prevent overpopulation (not that the fundie literalists with their "women are baby factories" mindset will get that).
Sorry for the rant, it just grates my nerves to have narrow-minded people with no degree in psychology, sociology or biology, and no contact with their targets, make provably false claims about any group in an effort to justify their bigotry. Links to sites are below.
Anti-gay types are the same sort of people that ranted against interracial dating during segregation. Ignorance, intolerance and lying are not Biblical values.
