“Ian Mckellen Leads Movement to Rip Leviticus 18:22 Out of All Bibles”
by www.popeater   
November 7th, 2009

Note to hotel managers: unless you want it to be altered forever, remove that Bible from Sir Ian McKellen's bedside drawer before he shows up.

In a Q&A with Details magazine, the openly gay 'Lord of the Rings' star admits to a habit of tearing out the Bible passage that condemns homosexuality -- Leviticus 18:22 -- every time he finds one in his hotel room. 

The passage: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."

"I'm not proudly defacing the book," he asserts, "but it's a choice between removing that page and throwing away the whole Bible."
McKellen says his actions have inspired others to do the same. "I got delivered a package of 40 of those pages that had been torn out by a married couple I know. They put them on a bit of string so that I could hang it up in the bathroom.

Art's Commentary......One day this man will come face to face with God of the Bible who said, "If any man shall take away from the words of this book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life,...." Revelation 22:19.
