I'm surprised, the gay thread managed to get to... 250 or so replies untill the bible-thumpers got in.
Glad to see you know it only affects christians but, I'm still a bit worried on Christian homosexuals. What about them?
I'm an atheist, straight, but I do believe that the only core message of the Christian faith is love eachother, and forgive your fellow man. The rest of the teachings has been made up by men with their own personal agenda. |
Right. We are to love one another. But that doesn't mean you love what he does or the way he is. For example. If I had a gay friend I would still love him but not like his act of perversion.

Wow! What a great friend!
- "I love you but I think you're a pervert" Great message...
|
That's not it at all.
"Hate the sin, love the sinner" is what I've most commonly heard.
And to a later post, if being gay is something that you can not change. Then why have I had friends who have gone gay to only come back later straight men? Or are you just going to say that were gay in the first place?

I think you answered your own question. Another possibility may be that they have simply suppressed those feelings/urges.
It basically comes down to whether you believe homosexuality is a choice. No doubt some people just do it out of curiousity, but I certainly do not think it's a choice for most people. How else would you explain homosexuality in animals?
|
I do not nor do I try to understand the sexual behaviors of animals. So I won't comment on that one.
And my friend was dead serious when he came out. It surprised when he told me he'd changed. I was just anticipating what the response would be.
