So the only way to be promiscuous is to dig guys?
Actually, in the religious community, it is quiet known that homosexuality can be changed, if the person wants to.
But not in the real world.
Which is funny, because there is no evidence that that is really the case.

Yes it could.
Uhm... you don't think very well, do you?
The bible speaks bad about homosexuals. In order to keep your silly beliefs, you have to accept that homosexuality is a choice, or can be "made up".
Actually, no, it merely has to be demonstrated that it is a myth, I.E., not true.
Science and modern psychiatry seem to demonstrate that it's not true.
Well, since we don't kill people that break the sabbath anymore, and don't kill children that disobey their parents, we could as easily go with the ban on homosexuality.
So your motive explanation is a bad one.
And you do need to explain the motives of a certain society, in order to prove that it believes in myths. Otherwise, it is simply mind-boggling how a certain society can believe in myths. And if you don't want your mind to boggle, then, you need an explanation of motives.

You COULD, yes. People like me bring that up all the time.
No it's not.
My mind boggles over a lot of things when it comes to religion. That doesn't make the conclusions of delusionals like you any more rational.
To prove that it isn't a myth, you need facts and data to support it. This usually comes in the form of objective studies. If you have no data to present, then at best it's an educated opinion. At worst, which it seems to be for people like you, it's just a "feeling" that's not supported by any objective evidence whatsoever.
Sorry, but the real universe doesn't really care what you feel and what you don't. It'll go on without your consent the way it is. Sorry.
You said that a possible explanation of motives could be that lifting the ban from homosexuality would require the OT to be wrong in something. Then you agreed with my reasoning that it COULD be done without that, just as with sabbath-breaking.
Therefore your explanation of motives is a bad one.
If your mind boggles, when it comes to religion, how do you explain its existance??? Mind-boggling is not the best argument.
Perhaps they need homosexuality to be a "choice" in order to make homosexuals seem bad?

Anti-homosexual bigoted statements can be found in the NT, too.
It is. Just as slavery could. But theist delusionals still used the bible as an argument to defend slavery and their property. Why is that, Jetleg? Surely there was a good reason?
See above.
People are silly. To be more specific, rationality does not come easily to any animal, and humans are included.
Religion has no good arguments. Period.
"I felt God!" is the best (and only) argument you bring to the table. Well, I'll be damned! A human feels something is true, so therefore it MUST be true!
Whatever.
Well, it is understandable why would anyone want slaves. Slaves are comfortable. But what personal motives are for anti-gay ideas?
It comes back to that you think you are more rational than others, and that is arrogant. Don't be arrogant.
