1. What does this have to do with Devuan?

2. What makes you so certain that the original doctrines of the bible, as
written in Hebrew, and quite possibly accurately translated on occasion,
represent the "correct" way to live compared to modern beliefs of today?

2a. The bible is not the only "holy scripture" - there are plenty to choose
from.

Why should two men or two women not marry and enjoy life together?

What gives a 2000-year-old view of life and society any greater authority than
our current view of life and society?

I say "live and let live".

If people before me said otherwise, that doesn't automatically make them right
and me wrong.
