Well was he? There appears to be nothing in the bible to suggest otherwise. I ask this as a serious question as it would throw so much light on current issues and debates about homosexuality.
This is in no way intended to offended Christians...it is a serious search for some truth. There is certainly nothing I can see in the bible that indicates that he was Heterosexual and homosexuality was widely practised at the time. It also interest me that of the twelve chosen to be his disciples they were all men. Maybe someone can put me right on some biblical knowledge. But I cannot find a single passage where he sees women as 'desireable' and yet he is always on the lookout for men 'A fisher of men'. Your thoughts would be appreciated. ![]() |

Condemnation of homosexuality is in the OLD testament. Many biblical contradictions stem from the old testament/new testament argument. For the most part, they're two different religious doctrine for the same religious practice. Of course they're going to contradict one another. The old testament also says that failing to fear God will result in cow dung falling from the sky.
Jesus is from the new. He could've been gay, but even then its irrelevant to the religion. Christian culture pushes the 'anit-gay' envelope. For all we know, Jesus was also turnin' trick with Mary Magdeline, but you don't see every televangelist preaching about saving the hookers. End of story. |
