FE> Sorry, hun, but you saying "I did answer" doesn't mean you DID.

Okay, so you believe homosexuality is a choice.

- Why would ANYONE chose to be homosexuals, with the bias and prejudice you guys show them?

Can you imagine if homosexuality was NOT a choice? Now, if it was NOT a choice, would it still be a sin?

If we are to take the Bible literally, then:
- Must we KILL all homosexuals (Romans 1: 26-28)?
- Must we circumcise all boys (Genesis 17:14) or abandon them?
- Is bigamy allowed? (Starting in Genesis 4:19)?

Did Abraham commit adultery with Hagar?
Did Abraham marry his sister with God's blessing?
Did Lot allow the mob to rape his daughters?
Did Lot have sex with his daughters?

WD> I'm short on time today and for next few days. But I'll get back to you as SOON as I have better time - THAT's a promise! 🙂

sometimes not always .

if you had read the next phrase in my reply then you would have seen that I wrote "half-truth"; you don't get the full truth out of a myth, cause a myth doesn't tell you how it exactly went, it is a fictional story were some parts are containing the truth.

I understand, time is a valuable thing. I need to take a break from this thread. I've already spend too much of my precious time here.

btw-You don't have to promise me anything. After all I'm not using FORCE on others. 😉

I don't show any bias or prefudice, i'm against it but i don't treat them diff cuz of that. I believe it's wrong. My beliefs i've stated in here, or in here, I don't go around telling everyone this, Thats their life, if they want to live it like that, now if they ask, I'll tell them i believe it's wrong.
I won't be rude to them. That is NOT me.

Saying if it was NOT a choice would it still be sin, hmmm well since it is a choice, Yes it is. The bible doesn't skip/hop around this, it flat tells you it's an abonimation to God.

there is a difference between faith and believing everything that is written in the bible with questioning it, believing everything that is written in the bible without thinking of symbolic meanings and stuff is just being ignorant.

There is alot of symbolic things in the bible. Jesus uses parables all the time as examples of what he's talking about. So, what in the world are you talking about?? 😕

I'm not going to explain it, it would take too much time and it has very little use anywayz, should you ever come to belgium go talk to a priest he'll explain it.

Nice response lol Fire:believing everything that is written in the bible without thinking of symbolic meanings and stuff is just being ignorant.

No one said that for you to say that!

and I said that myths sometimes it does and sometimes it contains material that have no hold in truth at all. Where everything is fictional

noone said what?

That things in the bible are not symbolic (just not everything like some seem to think), Jesus used parables all the time in explaining something.

Well I (and I think everyone in Belgium) was always thought that most of the stuff in the bible like the miracles and the healings were symbolic.

wouldnt be much of a miricle if they were only symbolic

I do think those actually took place. I've seen them happen. Have you ever heard of Kathryn Kuhlman? She was very well known and held week after week Healing services across America.

Finti they don;t refere to them as miracles in belgium. but FE calls them miracles so I just used here words.

NO I haven't and as I have said over 2.000 times by know no miracle is sure to have a divine origine.

WEll, if you ever find the time, why don't you try searching here out. Just to view and analyze things that had happened.

I never said those things don't happen I just say there is no prove those things have a divine origin.

I don't think I'm gonna spend my time on searching out some healer, thx for the offer tho

Didn't thk you would. but if you were to view both sides, like you say you don't know if he exist or not, then you would see if maybe he could exist.

well she was just as much accused of sham as she was of healing

Where and when was she? The proof is in the people, that were healed

there are just as many that have tested the opposite that they felt it was just a sham, there are tons of material on the net that aint favourable to her
