Recently I was involved in a long written correspondence with a friend about the Bible and homosexuality, initiated by the poster above which I posted on facebook. My friend, who is passionate about God’s written word, was upset that I was using the Bible to back up my personal opinion on homosexuality.

We ended up typing over 12,000 words to each other in a few days time. I loved corresponding with my friend. I need people in my life who challenge me, people who think different. For some reason, my favorite quote from Morgan Freeman comes to mind here: to quote his character Azeem from Robin Hood, “Allah loves wondrous variety.”

I thought posting the entire correspondence would be nice, a chance for people to see–especially non-religious folk–that there is more than one voice/opinion on this biblical issue. You can read it here.
