| Fernando said: I don't have any problems with gay people. I mean, I don't have gay friends and I don't want to make friendship with them. They can live their lives that way if they want... I had friends... good friends, than after many years, they confessed that they are gay. I try to help them, try to convince them to go to church. But they didn't wanted. So I don't want any more friendship with them. But that is wrong... I don't want to sound like a bad people, but being gay is wrong. Why? Because is a sin. And is a sin that can be fix if you go to the church. There are a lot of testimonials about gay people that know that is wrong, and God has helped them. People don't born gay. And people can change. I'm methodist, by the way. And this is a very delicated topic, so I don't want me to judge me for this post. |
If you are going to use a religious argument, I'm going to throw a religious argument right back.
The Bible, and books assosiated, were all written through out many generations. Some books were taken out of the series due to them contridicting Priests teachings. Like for example the Gospel of Mary, which shows that she was not a whore like current teachings suggest. The reason it and many were thrown out was due to the Church's switch in belief that women have no power in the Church, which before the books were thrown out was not true. Women were Priests or held even higher positions in the Church.
The Bible also is nothing more then a historical story book, thats right I said it. The Bible's stories are twisted stories of either what really happened, example the Plagues, or stories of faith, example Noah's Arch. A book and religion that has changed and been rewritten hundreds of times holds as much truth in it as the Harry Potter books.
The concept of Religion is hope based. Without a belief of a higher being, or afterlife, or next step, there would be no belief in and of hope in this world. Without hope for even a better day then today, for example, would make this a very depressing world.
In general, you put the belief of what is right and wrong based on what a book told you. You have not allowed yourself to freely believe what you want. You are not letting your own thoughts freely understand the world around you and what is really right and wrong.
