An actual christian follows the NEW TESTAMENT... If you're going to follow old testament laws, then FOLLOW ALL OF THEM. Put down your damn pork, grow side burns, pray 3 times a day, sacrifice animals, eat only Kosher food.. you know, become a Jew. Christians are the most hypocritical... actually no they are not. Plenty of people from all religions are. I guess being in America just makes me so disgusted at the terrorist right christian groups. People need to grow up and realize no God would have wanted any person to be criminalized / persecuted for how they were born or their beliefs. That is the exact opposite of being merciful and loving.
Personally, this entire mii campaign on this game is annoying and stupid. Its a damn game, not a social justice peice. Focus on shit thats actually important like real discrimination among sexuality, sexes, color, race, etc. |
I agree with all you said.
But the verse I originally included is from the new testament.
I myself am a humanist and pro LGBT rights, but i dont think that means homosexuality is required in all aspects of life.
A game is a game, not a social commentary or political document.

That makes sense. What I really mean was "true" modern-day Christian.

I don't think actual christian is really a term. I think it was just an attempt to be more descriptive than just saying "Christian."

Check out leviticus 20:13: "If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act. They must both be put to death, for they are guilty of a capital offense" Doesnt sound very accepting to me. Edit: Spelling & Grammar |
I think the problem here is that when a book is thousands of years old and has been translated countless times some of the original meanings can be lost. I've seen alternate translations that paint a different picture. No matter how perfectly reasonable the original text is, time and translation can always pervert it.
Why do gays feel their lifestyle needs to be up and in our face everyday? Like take for example the Michael Sam nasty kiss shown all over the world when he was drafted. If man and woman were doing that I would tell them, hell most people would them to get a room. But because he is gay we are hate mongers or homophobic bigots. U mmmmm no you keep that shit in the bedroom.

I'm not sure why they are putting this stuff in video games but umm ok if it makes you feel better.

leviticus 20:13 is the old testament.

Ah, okay. My mistake. I retract that comment then.
