Many Christians recognise that the Old Testament Law does not apply to Christians, and so their "go to verse" in the New Testament is Romans 1:27. It reads (in the New Living Translation):
And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved.
They say that this clearly says that gay sex is wrong. But read it more closely... Lust - not love. My question to any Christian is this: are love and lust the same thing? I've yet to meet the Christian who said "yes"! So, this verse talks about lust between two men, it says nothing about two gay men who love each other.
