i have. there are no passages in the NT dealing with homosexuality.
so, either you get to lord leviticus over gays while committing the heinous sin of mixed fabrics -or- leviticus was made irrelevant by the good news, making homosexuality and mixed fabrics not explicit sins, even if it doesn't illicitly condone them.
which is it?
While you may have read the text, you obviously have not taken a hermeneutics class. True, the NT does not specifically say that homosexuality is a sin, but it does say that a man shall leave his husband and cleave to his wife.. Not cleave to his husband.. Sorry but a wife is a woman.. The NT does not "specifically" say that human sacrificing to the Norse god Thor is a sin. But if we interpret the text as a whole, I think most logical people can agree that it is not a cool thing to do..

Is this really what you meant to say?

Um... husband is a man. So if a man is leaving his husband... doesn't that mean that the bible condones gay marriage by acknowledging it's existence?
PS -- Don't bother asking... never studied hermeneutics, never going to study hermeneutics, not even looking up what hermeneutics is because the word itself sounds utterly boring. Thanks though....

he was quoting genesis. and that quote was in response to the specific question of whether a man can divorce his wife for any reason. so, hermetically, by using "wife" in his answer, he was not specifically excluding same-sex partners. he was just answering the question asked.
