Not Roman Catholic, true. I was brought up a Protestant in the Church of Ireland. Which is, to say, practically the Church of England.
If that is how the Bible must be approached, I see no reason to approach it at all. If your law must be shaped from an external source to match that of your internal thoughts, I see no point.
If religion changes, that is fine, I do not mind, and in fact believe it must in order to survive. But that very change suggests that any truth it may have had is long gone.
Yes, and debate and learning arguments contrary to your own belief is completely pointless. No one really needs to broaden their horizons.
You are still just preaching to the choir, no one is having their beliefs challenged.
If you followed your own somewhat counterproductive logic, you wouldn't be arguing with me.
As for the Bible on homosexuality (And I most certainly do not agree with the view expressed):
"For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet"
As for God creating us in his image, Irenaeas says it was a two stage process: first, being in the likeness of God, and only after hardship and death, becoming like God.
