I have no idea what your point is. A homosexual is anyone whose dominant attraction is to the same sex, regardless of whether or not they have homosexual relations.

Thanks for posting the link.


There is tons of information on this subject out there. I've read where it may be possible to produce genetic offspring of more than two people. Human reproduction in heading into a brave new world

James 1: 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

The reason Christians have such a strong view against homosexuality is we understand that all repented sin will be forgiven of God. All those you listed can be forgiven. It's when a person lives a lifestyle of it and doesn't seem to think there is any reason to repent for it is when they are in judgement of God.

Where have I stated otherwise? I agree with you.

Two problems with your presumptuous myopic post:

1. You don't speak for all Christians. In fact, I wouldn't call you a Christian at all.

2. God has NEVER spoken against homosexuality. God has only spoke as Jesus. What a bunch of old Jews made up in their heads thousands of years ago is bunk. No sane person could think those lunatic stories. Like Sodom and Gomorrah, the three people God saved because they were the only Godly people there... Lot and his two daughters who would later have sex... incest is best relatively speaking.

In fact, you're intellectually dishonest because supposedly God said:

quote:

"Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery." (Luke 16:18)



So anyone who has divorced and remarried, in your words, is "a person lives a lifestyle of it and doesn't seem to think there is any reason to repent for it is when they are in judgement of God".

So if you really believe in the Bible, perhaps you should be starting threads telling divorcees, like Revelator, that their lifestyle is against God?

Why? If Revelator has repented He will be forgiven by God. Not my problem.

You might want to rethink that one.

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.

You're being inconsistent. If a divorcee who remarries and then repents is forgiven, and is all good, then why isn't a homosexual who repents?

In both cases, they are both "living lifestyles" that are considered wrong, according to your interpretation of the Bible. They both repent. Neither changes the circumstances of their relationships.

A marriage is a contract, it involves legal obligations between two people, and it grants certain legal rights to the two people within the contract. It makes sense for the government to be involved.



Actually, a STATE recognized marriage is a contract. But, yes, I agree with you. My point is, there is no actual need or state recognition.

quote:

I don't understand what is gained by your suggestion. You just want the government to use a different name for marriage? Why even bother?

I wouldn't. I would simply say that if some couple feels highly compelled to codify certain things about their partnership in a formal govt recognized contract that they could do so.

Otherwise, if two people say they're married, they are. Period.

Yes. I can already hear your "but but buts" regarding the host of things marriage gives you access too. I submit that those things are all easily dealt with and gets the state out of marriage altogether.

Bottom line. If marriage licenses had never existed, I can think of no compelling reason why we would create them today. In fact, I suspect that if they'd never existed and someone proposed TODAY that after you've identified the person you want to be with, you had to go to the state and pay $35 so they could "recognize" it, that would be a damned tough sell.

Someone who is attracted to the same sex is gay regardless of who they sleep with. You don't stop being gay just because you choose to suppress your desires for moral reasons.



This is false. Nobody is born gay. People are born with sexually attractions examples: gays, pedophiles, beastility, Necrophilia, and many other abnormal sexual attractions. It is your choice to act upon them. Doing and thinking something is two different things. If you think about pushing your coworker off a cliff but never do it this does not make you a murderer.

People do this all the time. This is how they stay out of prison and avoid many crimes. Can you imagine a serial rapist or serial murderer telling a judge they were born this way. They can't help their actions because deep down inside they have an erg and should not suppress it.

I really can't take anything you say seriously, due to the absolute hypocrisy of your user name having 69 in it.

Let's see. Podiatrist is ruled out. I would say GI doctor but then why would you be seeing a diabetic foot.


I would guess you are Internal Medicine or a General Practice.

Am I right?

How am I being inconsistent? Most homosexuals do not think there is a need to repent for their lifestyle. Ask them?

And I believe this was left out of Vegas's scripture.

Finally, a voice of reason. Listen, this is a complicated subject, but it can be broken down to something very simple to understand. It's all hormones. Hormones control what we are attracted to, how much, and at which times. Being a homo is simply being hormonally attracted to the same sex, nothing more. Becoming gay is acting upon those feelings.

So to reiterate, being wired to like the same sex on a hormonal level - not a choice.

Acting upon those feelings - absolutely a choice. Granted, the alternate choices suck - i.e. sham marriage, never having sex.

Yay! Now we can coexist! :rainbows
