He was even engaged to get married to a girl. I have to give him props for trying to be straight but I guess it wasn't his thing.

I totally know what you mean. A little boy that was a few years older than my oldest daughter used to come over all the time and play with my daughters. To say this kid had a little sugar in his tank would be putting it lightly. But he was only about 8-9 at the time so I don't think he knew what sex was, much less what gay was. But sure as shootin.....kid turned out queer as a 3 dollar bill. I honestly think he was born that way. Not a choice he made, therefore not something he should be judged on. I do not think that all gays are born that way though. I think a lot of them gravitate to that lifestyle for social reasons or attention that it brings them.

Even so, people are free to do as they please. Freedom of religion also means freedom to not follow the bible, I respect others people's freedoms just as they should respect mine

don't lie, don't cheat, don't steal, don't kill

that's all the religion I need...

I agree religion divides people....I could type for hours but it's not worth it.

Homosexuallity is clearly a sin in both the old and new testaments of the bible. Just like any other sin, the bible tells us to hate the sin and not the sinner. I believe we are to pray for their salvation and encourgage thier repentance while at the same time not condoning the sinful behavior.

Myself included. I have never read th bible and I don't intend to because I do not need a book written over 1,000 years ago to tell me how to live. Nor do I need a book written yesterday to tell me how to live. I live my life by what I assume is right. Some of it was taken from the Catholic religion and some was taken from pure common sense. It has kept me out of prison thus far. Will it get me into heaven? Hopefully!

They didn't even have a word for homesexuality back in biblical times so it can be interpreted however someone wants to interpret it.

While I don't condone the practice, what two consenting adults do behind closed doors is their own business. Homosexuality has always existed and is well documented over the course of history. Even the mighty spartans openly participated in homosexual acts - so I guess I am saying, time to move on...

You can pray till you blue in the face for some peoples salvation and it's not going to happen. For these people Jesus taught that you should knock the dust off your sandals and move on. Matthew 10:14

These couples should have the same rights, but it should be called something else. Wether it be Civil Unions or not. Just not marriage

Exactly, well said Dink

Ive seen a couple of movies where there were two women kissing and I didnt have any problem with it;):D

Goooh 07-09-2013 04:18 PM

God is a tolerant God, he tolerates all the messed up stuff we do. Why would he smite someone that may actually be a better person overall than all of us, but likes to take a wiener in the butt now and again?

jdunbar 07-09-2013 04:20 PM

thank goodness! Now I don't feel so bad about my interspecies erotica fetish!

Dink 07-09-2013 04:25 PM
