Some people focus
On Lev. 18:22
That is a mistake
-
Lots of Torah laws
Are looked at diff'rently now
We don't enforce them
-
Remember that gays
Created in G-d's image
Should not be condemned
-
Our Reform Movement
Teaches that gay, straight or bi
Are treated the same
-
The lesbian Rav
Marries two gay Jewish men
And we say: "Ze Tov"*
*[this is good]

We still don't put a
Stumbling block before the blind.
We too are holy.
The Holiness Code
Is still so relevant that
It's read Yom Kippur!
