stop counterculturalism now

Wednesday, April 18

I came across a very interesting website discussing homosexuality and Christianity. They point to evidence from the New and Old Testaments affirming same-sex relationships, even a passage where Jesus mentions "eunuchs who have been so from birth." The Greek word for eunuchs is not specific to castrated men and is actually a more broad term often associated with homosexuality. I've always found discrimination of any sort antithetic to Jesus' message and so I find reading some of these passages with a better understanding of the language very appealing.

About me

I am a graduate student who currently lives in Austin, Texas. Like many in my position, I am good at wasting time, procrastinating, and the like.

I have been blogging since 2003.

Many of my posts are somewhat random, though I try to include personal narratives and writings from time to time. As of July 2008, I am going to include only writings that are personal or at least long-winded here.

You can view all my posts from around the web on my Life Stream / Tumbleblog.

Or, if you want to add me to a social networking site, I am on Facebook, Flickr (slideshow), Myspace, and Twitter.
