Gwyneth Paltrow questions if the Bible considers homosexuality a sin

It has emerged that Gwyneth Paltrow has taken up the topic of homosexuality and the Bible in her GOOP website newsletter.

“When my daughter came home from school one day saying that a classmate had two mommies,” Stuff.co.nz quoted the actress as saying in the newsletter.

“My response was, 'Two mummies? How lucky is she?!” she wrote.

Without condemning the sanctity of the Christian church, the actress has raised questions on whether or not the Bible really does deem homosexuality sinful.

However, Paltrow said that people should be more open to different ways of thinking.

“What does it actually say in the Bible that will cause some people to be upset by my line of thinking?” the mom of two said.

The 38-year-old star was also greatly impacted by a wave of homophobic attacks and teen gay suicides that occurred in America in recent months.

“A few months ago, in the heat of the tragic teen suicides that came about from intolerance of homosexuality, I saw a man on television who was apologising for wishing death on gays from his Facebook page,” she explained.

“This member of an Arkansas school board was contrite for the violence in his words, but maintained that his values pertaining to homosexuality would remain, as he felt homosexuality was condemned in the bible. This concept, while foreign to me, is interesting, as it used to justify so much judgement and separation in our society,” she added.
