I just wanted to mention, I had an Aunt who found out I was gay, I was in my early 20's in the 1990's she was very religious. She by the way was the only relative who came forward to talk to me. She wanted to discuss the Bible and told me up front "That I would have my own interpretations on the Bible and no-one could tell me different". Well 2 meetings and countless hours later, the biggest was of course Leviticus was the big one. I told her I believed the scripture. I take "to lay with" as sex and I would not have sex with a woman as I would with a man. For me to have sex with a woman was unnatural. But me having sex with a man was natural. She of course tried to argue, but I said that was my interpretation. She also wanted me to talk to her paster, I did. When he spouted the Bible was against homosexuals, I said prove it. He grabbed his king james version. And I said "NO" show me in Hebrew, the language the Bible was written in. By the way Hebrew does not have a word for homosexual, and when interpreting the Bible to English, that was that persons interpretation. I never heard from that pastor again. When I asked my Aunt about how she would treat a boyfriend when I brought him home. She looked me in the eye and said. "I would treat him like part of the family" I was surprised and Happy. Just wanted to share another interpretation of Leviticus
