A Short Morality Play
Christian: "Homosexuality is a sin."
Me: "Why do you think that?"
Christian: "Because it says so in the Bible."
Me: "But I reject the Bible as a premise. Your argument is predicated upon a document that I feel holds no validity. You therefore can't use the Bible to argue with me."
Christian: "Well, I believe what it says in the Bible."
Me: "Ok, where in the Bible does it say that?"
Christian: "Uh.... I'm not exactly sure, I'd have to look it up. I know it's in there though."
Me: "Do you wear poly-cotton blend clothing?"
Christian: "What?"
Me: "You heard me, mother-fucker, DO YOU WEAR 50/50 T-SHIRTS?"
Christian: "Well, yeah, my WWJD is 50/50."
Me: "Then you're going to burn in hell if you believe what it says in the Bible."
Christian: "That's not true!!!"
Me: "Can I see your Bible?"
Christian: "I have it right here I always carry a spare."
Me: "Here in Leviticus 18 it says a man shouldn't like with a man, because it's an abomination."
Christian: "See, just like I said, it's in the Bible that being gay is a sin."
Me: "And one chapter later, in Leviticus 19:19 -
"Keep my statutes: do not breed any of your domestic animals with others of a different species; do not sow a field of yours with two different kinds of seed; and do not put on a garment woven with two different kinds of thread."So you've broken god's law, just the same as if you stuck your dick in another man's ass."
Christian: "Well, that's different."
Me: "Why?"
Christian: "Because homosexuality is a sin, it says so in the Bible."
