Diseases were common, easily contracted (no vaccines), and could kill off entire populations. It is known in current medicine that those who are homosexuals are more susceptable to certain STD's because of the nature of the relationship. We now have the technology to deal with the diseases and even cure some of them if not at least control them. The purpose of this law and many of the laws in the book of leviticus were to protect the nation or race from plague and disease that could become uncontrollable.

Are you serious? So god said, back then, that all gay men should die so that no others would.......
Is there a section of the bible that nobody knows about that says it can be updated as the times change and we learn how to deal with things? This is just one of the most ridiculous things of all time.
Nowhere does it say that this crap was to protect anyone.. God says to kill gay men cause they fuck each other in the ass. Do you think that straight couples don't get into ass play? I've boned a few chics in the ass. I guess I committed an abomination and should be put to death. There isn't a difference if it's a straight or gay couple fucking each other up the ass. It's all the same damn thing.
Leviticus 20:10
And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
What lame explanation do you have for this one? Have you ever cheated on a significant other..... I haven't, and I don't need to believe in god to know not to do that. If this were true there would be a lot of dead christians!!
Leviticus 20:9
For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
Again, what's your explanation for this. I sure hope you never swore at your parents cause according to god you should be dead right along with me.
Leviticus 20:27
A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
I could go on with crap like this forever, but this will be my last example. When was the last time you saw a witch or wizard....... Wait a minute! There never have been any. Surely, god should know this, right? Why is it that I know they are fictitious creatures yet god doesn't. I can answer that. Because god is just as fictitious as a witch or wizard... Now remember, the next time you see a witch or wizard you better do your part and stone them to death.
