On Homosexuality & Religion [Merged]

Just because it is...doesn't mean its bad.

I call it insecurity because they have this irrational fear of being wrong about their religion, so they think that if they get more and more people to believe their rhetoric that it will make them right. But, the same thing that happens when they die will be the same thing that happens when I die. Baby Jesus and the Pope have nothing to do with it.

Yeah, you probably are going to heaven. I guess you should yell at your parents for raising you Catholic.

If I thought heaven was aplace rather than a state of mind I would yell at them.

Thats because your opinon does not respect other people.

...not to mention it is unfounded.

It is beyond arrogant to come into a public forum, and dictate the allowable response from others. When you post on a public forum like this, you can expect to get critiques. If you don' t want to see your views challenged, then don' t post them at all.

As soon as I was old enough to think for myself, I always asked my parents after the why. I don' t believe just because a so-called wise person said it, nor because a belief is generally held. Not because it is said in ancient books, or because it is said to be of divine origin. I believe nothing just because someone else believes it. I only believe what I myself test and judge to be true.

I have a work ethic, regardless of what my employer might or might not tell me. Even if my employer told me that soliciting sex and using drugs while on company time wasn' t against the rules, then I would still not engage in these activities. Because I say so. What my employer has to say is irrelevant to my morality.

You' ll be the first to know when I have a bone to pick with you. So don' t flatter yourself.

Homophobia: prejudice against, the fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals. It can also mean hatred or disapproval of homosexual people, their lifestyles, sexual behaviors or cultures, and is generally used to assert bigotry.

unfortunately, i do know that most of the christians i know of are homophobes. they are afraid of what they do not know or understand.

Thats funny...becuase most Christians I know (personally)...are usually pretty accepting.

Were you abused as a child? I don't think I have ever had one normal post from you. You came out the gate swinging at me so to speak. What is your complex? Did you not get any love (let alone enough love) as a child? Man! I have never seen anyone as angry as you in my life over little words (called characters and symbols) on a gray backdrop. You need anger management, a complete psychoanalysis (with extra, tender care and love), some chill pills, and these gospel tracts for real (man!).

How could Captain Fantastic not have gotten enough love when your great and glorious God is spreading the joy... oh wait, I forgot, God loves us in his own way. He doesn't actually express it at all. We just have to take the Bible and your word the Big Guy is thinking of us. *sniff*

Maybe I should ask - did you not get enough love? Is there some deeper reason why you need to throw yourself with such abandon into the faith of Christ? The promise that it doesn't matter what you have done you will still be rewarded as long as you don't question? What... are you looking for?

well is being bi. a sin then because thats in between

The moment that a bisexual person has sexual encounters with someone of their sex it qualifies as a sin. So yes bisexuality (practicing sexual encounters with the same sex) is a sin.

It is amazing you can say that with such an utter and unquestioning amount of conviction.

That's just it JIA..your words HAVE NO POWER

Now why the f*ck do you think that is ? If you really are a conduit of God, why do you think nobody on this forum takes you seriously ?

How do you rationalize the fact that everyone on this fkn site, Non-Christians and even Christians alike think ur a fkn joke ????

All you do is post Bible quotes, you have nothing else to argue with..oh wait...i forgot.....queer little "chick tracts" 🙂

You're a total fkn idiot man, calling those who don't buy into your fkn cult the "Anti Christs"

YOURE A JOKE !!!!!!!!
