Legend, I challenge you to quote one scripture where Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity, said that homosexuality is a sin, or where he condemned homosexuals. Those were not his teachings. He taught only love and compassion for humanity. "Judge not, lest ye be judged, for however you judge others, is how you will be judged." Pretty sure you don't want that cause earlier in your ramblings I read that you're sorry, but if someone is a homosexual, they are going to hell. You just condemned approx 10% of the population to eternal damnation. Is that the judgement you want bestowed on yourself? "Let him that is without sin cast the first stone." Kind of saying the same thing. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." As far as what the rest of the New Testament writers wrote, they weren't Jesus, and I think his teachings supersedes theirs. The Apostle Paul teaches you that women should keep silent in churches, should not be in a position of authourity over man, and should either have their heads covered when they pray, or be shaved bald. Don't support just one little portion of the Bible if you don't know the rest of it, Oh, and btw, in the OT one of the leaders that led the Children of Israel into the promised land made the sun stand still for 24 hours so that Gods chosen ppl would have daylight to win the battle over their enemies. Today we know that the sun always stands still, and the earth revolves around it. I just brought that up to show that the Bible cannot be taken literally in every aspect.
Jesus teachings were to chance sinners into believers he changed tax collectors into followers prostitutes into followers, murders into followers, he followed the word of god, his Laws, god bible. Jesus followed the teachings but also was against the traditions of harming others for sin because everyone can be saved. In the teachings of homosexuality it is a bad sin and should not be practiced. Woman was made for man and man was made for woman. Man was not made to be with another man. And a woman was not made to be with a woman. Jesus helped sinners. Who says he didn't help homosexuals? And save them from there sin?
actually the sun does not stand still, there is a center if mass that the sun rotates around. Kinda a small wabble that makes it hard to notice.
I agree on no. But some were using bible to hide or mask from old book not new. But you will never change there minds much like they will never change yours . But your showing hate and its clouding your mind. To do good things you must stay calm BC hate is not the answer. That's why so many flocked to the word BC it was love. Pray that ppl read . Pray that ppl listen. Pray that ppl have open heart. One day judgement will come but not from us. So let them that see in darkness walk in darkness let those that see in light walk in light. Don't hate. It will never end well. We all just need to walk in light in peace answers will come. Hate is darkness. Love is the light. Plz read all b4 you say that I said gay is darkness BC I didn't . It is not my job to judge. I may be right I may be wrong . That's why I'm a human and not god
Hate? There is no hate I never once said I hated gays. I'm disgusted with there choice of sexuality. But no hate. so stop saying that's what I saying because your sadly mistaken
And challenging me? I'm sorry are we on a game show? no. I'm giving my opinions my my views of my faith to the subject. Don't like it? I don't care
Ummm tbh it is in the bible that homosexuality is a sin. Lol to the point that god destroyed a city. Angels went to thst city walked one family out and was told to not look back for they would turn into a piller of salt. The mother looked back. This city was destroyed bcuz of men laying with men and much more filth of sin. I suggest you read the right bible before you smack down about it. And yes I mean the right bible bcuz I have seen many ppl change it for what they want to believe in but not for what it really is. God didn't make Adam and Steve he made Adam and Eve. Besides the fact it goes against our nature of even reproducing. But anyways it's up to ppl. Im not up for it but it doesn't effect me so it's on them.
So you do cede that point to me then Legend? Jesus never condemned homosexuality. The only ppl he condemned were the religious leaders of his time. And the Apostle Paul actually said he wished that all were like him and never got married. Maybe we should criminalize all marriage. As far as the ppl on this thread that said no support to gay marriage because gays can't have children, what about the couples that are infertile? The elderly couples that fall in love and want to get married? Should we deny them that right as well, based on their inability to propagate the human race?
How do you all feel about homosexuals who believe in the same faith as you? They believe in the bible just the same as you, they cannot change how they are born, etc
this is completely ridiculous. If I want to marry my girlfriend why the hell is it anyone's concern? The only people who should be up in my shit about it are the people directly involved and the government. Maybe I don't want to get married under a church, so what's the argument now? Call it whatever the hell you want, but denying the rights of a pretty significant portion of the population all because of a book is ignorant. No one follows the bible 100%. They pick and choose the things they want to believe in. Case and point, some idiot back at the beginning of the thread said something about how marriage is only between a man and a woman until death or divorce do you part. you want to blame the sanctity of marriage being destroyed because two people who don't fit into your box want to be married? Why don't you look at the divorce rate. oh yes. Straight couples REALLY take the whole "sanctity of marriage" thing to the next level don't they? Oh, and PS, to the people saying if we allow gay couples to get married we might as well allow people to marry their dogs, you guys can go fuck yourselves. ️
