Proves pretty much what I said. Slowly but surely, homosexuals will get equal rights (as did African-Americans) like everyone else.You can holler and protest all you want but it doesn't change the fact that your gay newborn cousin will probably be able to marry in twenty years....
😬
It still hurts that they have to suffer for another 20 years.

Way to respond in your usual fashion, Urizen.The Bible never once says that 'homosexuality' is detestable, you simpleton! The only time the word 'homosexual' is used is in the New Testament, and that is a complete mistranslation of the words written. Why don't you read the ****ing page I posted, read what I wrote, and use that God-given glob of grey matter inside your skull that I am assuming is capable of the most basic mental functions?!
P.S. Alliteration was unintentional.
Uh oh....are you mimicking the Wrath of God ? fear

NO IT DOES NOT.
Leviticus 18:22 states: "Thou shall not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination."
Leviticus 20:13 states: "If a man also lie with mankind as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they should surely be put to death....".
Romans 1:26-27:
"For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions: for their women exchanged the natural use for that which is against nature. And in the same way also the men abandoned the natural use of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error."
Leviticus 18:22:
"You shall not lie with a male as those who lie with a female; it is an abomination."
Leviticus 20:13:
"If a man lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination and they shall surely be put to death."
I Timothy 1:9-10:
"Law is not made for a righteous person but for those who are lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers and fornicators and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound (healthy) teaching."
I Corinthians 6:9:
"The unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God. So do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the realm of God."
Listen to me, you simple-minded twits. I have read over the verses mentioned extensively; I know them all.
That does not change a thing of what the website says about the word 'homosexual' being a translational error of what was originally written. Read the website and maybe you'll actually understand things a little better, though I suppose that expecting any form of higher neural activity is a little much for both of you.

that's alot of "lies" there, I mean alot!
As I suspected, a demonstration of the most basic understanding of the Word was far too high of an expectation (not to mention insight).
Please explain to me, O my wisest of peers, what this verse means:
Proverbs 25:21-22"If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee."
Could you explain it accurately without knowing anything about culture of the Israelites? Could you explain it accurately without knowing to what the "heaping burning coals" referred? Tell me, O wisest of my peers, what it means without the knowledge which I have given you?
No! You could not!
For that same reason, one must understand the cultural background behind the cultures in which the books of the Bible were written--not to mention the actual translation from Greek or Hebrew!

Why did you not address the quote I mentioned above pertaining to homosexuality being "an abomination" being "detestable" and being "punishable by death"
Why not answer the question, and stop trying to change the subject moron.

You'll be hard-pressed to find any passages in the Bible that address same-sex attraction.
