Oh, you didn't mis-speak, I knew what you meant by prophet. :) I actually have some friends who could be considered prophets in that sense.

Yeah, sadly most Christians today, especially extremists, do not truly follow the ideas of the actual Christ Messiah. I remember reading parts of Leviticus for fun, and I started laughing when I got to the part that people claim "condemns" homosexuality. Because the whole "man lying with man as with woman" thing is buried in a huge section including bragging, lying, persecution, prejudice, discrimination, racism, hating, tattoos, mixing fabrics, shellfish, etc etc.

I remember seeing a photo of a guy with a giant tattoo of that Leviticus passage regarding men sleeping with men - and the hilarious part was that it was a tattoo, which Leviticus also forbade! Oh, people are silly.
