Today we have Divorce courts, protections, child custody, child and spousal support.

Mt 19 is about Divorce. Jesus’ reference to Celibacy is that it is a gift from God and that not everyone can receive it.

In Romans chapter 1, verses 26–27 are cherry-picked out of the context which starts in verse 18. The context is Idolatry.

Those women were shunned, shamed, casted out and abandoned. The man had all the power and Jesus dared to challenge that. Even His disciples were astounded.

The truth is, the Old Testament and New Testaments say next to nothing and sexual orientation is a relatively new concept.

If anything, Paul was writing about male prostitutes, not LGBT.
