  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.
