Doctor McIntosh does not provide proper -- e.g. traditional, historical exegesis, as have rabbis and church fathers in Christianity for 2000 years -- on the following scripture, concerning sodomy and homosexuality, which, as a scholar, he has a duty to report:

Romans 1:26

Genesis 19

Ezekiel 16:49

Judges 19

1 Samuel 18, 1 Samuel 20

I have not even mentioned Leviticus.

Perhaps sin is too "last millennium" for him? Whatever the case may be, it is bad scholarship, and even worse pastoral work. What's next for him? A report about how adultery is okay, per the bible? I'm sure he can come up with inventive exegesis for that -- which can twist the words of scripture to mean the exact opposite of what actually do mean.

e-mail the dean of the theology faculty to complain about his fraudulent report on homosexuality and the church, jmccar1@luc.edu

Jesus said: "And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore, they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder." -from THE BIBLE: Matthew 19:4-6

Do they have to drag God into this too?

It is amazing to me, that even if Leviticus 18:22 meant nothing to them, that they would still move ahead with ordaining a sodomite with the full knowledge that it would provoke an all-out schism, not only with the worldwide communion, but also within the US itself. That act strikes me as a deliberate one with no other conceivable aim but to destroy the church.

Unfortunately, them being Episcopalians, it will be a whole lot of mush-speak which properly translated will mean: Because we said so, nyah, nyah, nyah!

Because he can't and so he won't. The Catholic Church, on the other hand, has taken a strong stance against homosexual unions.

Homosexual "Marriage"

True marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Legal recognition of any other union as "marriage" undermines true marriage, and legal recognition of homosexual unions actually does homosexual persons a disfavor by encouraging them to persist in what is an objectively immoral arrangement.

"When legislation in favor of the recognition of homosexual unions is proposed for the first time in a legislative assembly, the Catholic lawmaker has a moral duty to express his opposition clearly and publicly and to vote against it. To vote in favor of a law so harmful to the common good is gravely immoral" (UHP 10).

What would one expect from Popes and bishops and all the other names the political arm of religions go by?

Start your own congregation based on the Bible and the Constitution of the United States of America and never let anyone but the members rule your church.

This kind of heresy is nothing more than the result of having a "rudderless" ship. There is no real central leadership. Without a leader this "ship" will go aground. These ships are legion.

Here's what I say: Never trust a man in a dress. That includes drag queens, priests and middle-eastern retro warriors.
