Well, God created man. And seeing he was lonely, God created woman and so they shall become one flesh. Also that serves for the institution of marriage by God Himself.
That`s why anything beyond that view is seen as a sin.

You can't judge about homosexuality, that's up to God. God is the judge of all, therefore you cannot know if homosexuality is wrong or not. Agreed or not?


Just because we say that this is right and that is wrong, doesn`t mean we are making moral judgments, per se. Given the quote above we do believe that the act of homosexuality is a sin and that`s what we believe. There might more reasons to consider it a sin, but that`s what i know or can remember.

Then how would you define "sin"? I'd say it's a violation of a moral law.

A sin is something that goes against God and that means what He is and what He says.

To clear things up here: Homosexuality is described as a sin both multiple times in the Old Testament Hebrew Law and in the New Testament in the last paragraph of Romans 1. As a scholar of Latin I can tell you there is absolutely no tomfoolery in the translations and it quite clearly says that men exchanged relations in error and will be duly punished. The passage then goes on to talk about people who commit such acts without repentance in a way most would describe as hate speech. You can deny the word of God, but then you have to give up Christianity, which you can certainly do if Hell seems like a nice proposition.



I'm not a fanboy, I just don't enjoy dual analog control.  It's d-pad or wii-mote for me.

the conduit has changed the way wii play games.

I know.  I'm sick of the puns too.

christians are going to hell anyways for idolatry, so i dont know why you are so concerned about that kevin.

Then let God decide about homosexuals. Disapproving homesexuality by denying them rights heterosexuals do have is playing God. If there's one thing you christians shouldn't do, is acting like you're God.

If we did what you ask we would forsake God one way or another. If there`s one thing God wants is for His words to be known.



cultural presure is the biggest aspect here, you're definitely influanced in some way by your environement to "prefer men".... that doesn't mean liking them is not natural either.... but having a distinct choice either way (for girls or men) is environemental, you are born of a man and a woman... so it's natural to follow that path, that is what your environement shows you. (basically i'm saying everyone should be bi to some extent)



OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

well for some its a life style choice. i mean how can you go for yrs being straight and then be gay or lesbian?
anyway to each his/her own as man need not judge.

the real ones or born that way.
