Shellfish, Slavery and Same-sex Marriage:How Not to Read the Bible - This article comes from an Australian church
leader. “While Australians wrestle with the implications of redefining marriage
to include a union of two persons of the same sex, it would be a much more
enlightened debate if proponents of this novel redefinition did not misuse the
Bible in mounting their arguments. It would be more honest to declare their
disagreement with biblical teaching, rather than pretend by shallow,
ill-informed exegesis that they are following the Bible's primary theme of
love. Here again, Jesus's words are instructive: "If you love me, keep my
commandments" (John 14:15).”
The comments section, below the
article, will give you a good exposure to the non-biblical worldview and the
way the arguments are typically drawn.
