  responds that
 
  a. attention to the original language (rather than flawed translations) of the Bible shows
  that the Bible does not actually condemn homosexuality.
  b. Biblical revelations are God's early revelations to a people that did not fully
  understand them; later revelations from God show God's approval of homosexuality.

  tribe who promoted heterosexuality in order to replace the soldiers killed in its wars
  of aggression.
  d. such teachings must be interpreted in their historical and cultural context.
  e. Biblical teachings are relevant only for strictly religious and devotional areas of faith,
  not for the guidance of human conduct.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
