I know you can't come back to this thread to post, but pay attention to corrections to your thinking:
"God " has also declared that eating pork and shellfish is an abomination [For Jews], wearing clothes with more than one kind of fabric on them [for Jews, and it isn't exactly what you are thinking] , shaving your hair [for Nasserites], having tattoos [for the dead], working on Sunday [Sabbath],and various things no one [but a Jew or Christian legalist, etc.] today objects to are "abominations ".
Don't cherry-pick the Bible .
Sorry, this was already done for gentiles in Acts. You missed it, but you are late. Keep up.
I'm an agnostic, not an atheist .
If I thought I had to keep away from lobster.... but I do enjoy 100% cotton. I think I may have a wool-blend in the closet, but I don't wear it often. What about a feather pillow? Is that a blend, or am I okay? Again, know if you are a Jew or gentile, sure, but then realize under Christ, the law no longer condemns. If tradition in family pressures, don't wear a wool blend, but don't fret either. I think it's safe for you to come to Christianity. You don't have to remain agnostic because of Jewish pressure.
There may be a God. But I just don't believe in the primitive Christian God of the Bible .
It 'sounds' like Judaizers had a hold of you. You might actually be okay if you hear the gospel.
Why don't I see more Christians protesting at Red Lobster restaurants ?
Well, if you 'want' to be a Judaized Christian, but if you are a gentile, I think you taking on a burden that would likely have made me agnostic too. "Come to me, all ye with heavy burdens for my yoke is easy and my burden light." I think we ALL can use that for a memory verse, at least once in our lives. It is a vital part of our understanding of Christianity. At times, I fret so much!
Either follow the Bible to the letter
Just what applies to us, and even much of the burden is taken away.
or leave gay people alone .
1 Corinthians 6:19 Willful defiant and flaunted sin has always bothered me. We should be sorrowful for whatever we do that hurts another. Through some distant relations and friendships, I am in contact with some homosexuals. I am congenial but truthful with them. I do, however, want to stop any public flaunting of any sin. This includes riots in the street. Adult-only parade displays in the street. Or doing drugs/alcohol in the street. Etc.
