To prove my point that "simplicity isn't easy," try to do this ONE simple thing: Pick a single idea or point made by Rev. Mel White in his infamous article on What the Bible Says--and Doesn't Say--About Homosexuality. For example, the Fifth Premise and one of the scripture explications under this premise (e.g., Romans 1:26-27).
Present a cogent argument against the premise and the scriptural interpretation that flows from both the premise and contextual information about who and what the scripture was intended to address. Don't go all over the page in a hundred different directions sputtering objections--just show the fallacy of the premise and its contextual interpretation. Stick to one point made in the article--chose any one point you find the most objectionable--and argue against it with logic and evidence.
