most of my muslims friend's family didn't show up because it goes against their traditional religious values

i could sense that this made him extremely upset on the inside :/

slavery had to go, it was hurting people, telling gays they are sinners is a victimless crime

That there are entire churches okay with homosexuality, duh. I guess I could look some interpretations up if you're that lazy. I like the one where it's only mentioned in a verse that implicates the entire audience reading it and thus isn't actually saying that those things make you damned for all time so much as reminding us that we're all sinners who need salvation, but there are several others.

Those churches are more keen on keeping up with the culture than staying true to what the Bible says. There are no interpretations that condone homosexuality that I agree with. (and no, new age tolerant to sin bibles, based not on actual translation but what people want to hear aren't accurate)

This bastardized form of Christianity should never be adopted

To put a fine point on this, it's not homosexuality in itself which is condemned, but homosexual acts. A person can have homosexual thoughts and be Christian.

The bible tells me I can enslave anybody from other nations though, and if I beat them they should just deal with it since they're helping a Christian do God's work.

Pretty reprehensible that so many Christians say slavery is wrong when God disagrees. They're just putting themselves above God, what terrible times we live in.

...no , it is not possible . Religions that " evolve " into accepting gay marriage are about as apostate as it gets .
