I think this is a dangerous rabbit hole to go down. The vast majority of religions cherry-pick from their religious texts. Arguing that Christians fundamentally can’t be tolerant of gay people because of Leviticus is basically conceding them to hatred. It’s also an argument frequently used by the right to spark hatred Western minority religions like Islam because the Qu’ran says a lot of messed up stuff like the Bible does.

There are Christian denominations that openly accept gay people and I don’t think it’s wise to claim they aren’t “real” Christians because of a few passages from a text written by dozens if not hundreds of people that already contradicts itself repeatedly.
