What plethora of evidence? The evidence I continually see from biblical scholars is actually the opposite - that most of the passages that people try to use to cite homosexuality as evil are mistranslations or misinterpretations because they try to understand the wording that’s been translated through at least two or three different languages from societies very different from our own after several thousand years.

Further, even if those passages DID mean that, the Bible is not a literal guidepost divinely composed by angels who came down from heaven and penned it in the golden ink of perfection. It was written by men with their own agendas and their own perspectives and points of view, assembled by a committee trying to create biblical canon from hundreds if not thousands of works that contradict or offer different messages from each other. While there is wisdom and guidance to be found in it, the only thing I really take away from it is “Jesus died for our sins, so please be good to one another.”
