Which Bibles DON'T refer to homosexuality as a sin?

Of course this is about human rights and not money.

The emotional pain is not immediately obvious of course but the mental instability is glaringly obvious. It's fortunate for McDonald's he's not carrying a cup of their finest. Ahhh yes... money the universal salve, the cure all that requires no prescription. He may be an ex con but he's nimble of thought as well as not adverse to publicity to achieve an end. You just know that there will be those amongst us that mentally kick themselves for not having thought of this themselves. Seventy million dollars will go a long way to helping dry the tears.

What a whack job. And I do mean that in the kindest, most politically correct way possible.

[BlueSky]

a lost whack job..

True, Bluesky.

I guess Zondervan is handy, considering that the original publishers are long gone. Like 3000 years or so.
