Re: Re: Is being bisexual a sin?

According to the definition of homosexual, you are still gay because being gay does not exclude doing it with the opposite sex, as long as you are attracted to or have sex with the same gender.
I think everyone at their core has bisexual attractions, but not necessarily bisexual desires.

first off...being gay is not a sin. Homosexual sex is a sin. But then again...many stupid things are.
Correct!
You can be gay because you are sexually attracted to the same gender. but you have not sinned yet unless you act upon it by actually engaging in the same gender sex.
More ever If you are indeed gay as far as emotions and feelings but you have managed to abstain from acting on those desires. not only it is not a sin but IMO it is a VIRTUE . 😮💨
Therefore even within the context of religion , the simple fact of being gay is not a sin in itself. It is the actual act that is a sin.
And outside the context of religion there are no sins 😈 and I wonder why atheism is so attractive!?!?

w00t I actually just realized that jest before I wrote it. I was thinking this morning!
Atheism is attractive for reasons other than being "guilt free." As an athiest I have a loght of guilt for things my fellow humans to to eachother. In some ways...it MORE my problem because I cant jsut say "oh god did it....blah blah blah" If being an athiest damned me eternally, I'd still do it becuase I believe its right.

First off...nothing is simple about religion. To sum up my beliefs in a list would not do my answer justice. I'm not athiest for any lame reasons like "I felt god abadoned me" or something.
I'll start with this: why God doesnt exist.
First. Plainly put...there is no proof god does or does not exist.
Truth is very hard to atain. To prove somehting correct you have to rule out every possible negative. This is usually not possible. In science, if you rule out a certain degree of nagative over a certain period of time...your hyopthesis turned Theory becomes Law (as close to fact as you will get ever in Science).
I will post this and continue.

I never thought of guilt as a reason for atheism. If I were going to be an atheist I suspect that it would be to deny that a larger force has control of my life. for me it would be a control thing.
But, I'm not an atheist and believing that I were in control wouldn't change the facts one way or another. so...

Look around. Did someone make the watch on you or your friends hands?
Did someone paint that painting on the wall in your house?
Did someone design and build the cars you see on the road?
Look around, is thier design in everything you see?
Open your eyes. God's handiwork is all around you! 💃

Well if you accept there isn't any proof either way (the lack of proof is hardly proof for the lack of deity) why aren't you agnostic?
My fault for making it two posts. I like to give complete and though answers.
Ok. There have been many god's/religions thought history. People think theirs is right. Most often, people are raised from birth being religious. They are taught how to walk, read, and believe. Simply because thier parents do. Most people don't change thier relgions (significantly). One thing that is common in religion is that other are wrong. its always "mine is right"
Now...what we see here is children being told something before they have logical thought and knowledge of abstract concepts. They don't know if it is right or wrong...they are told so.
Everyone's religion cant be the only right one, but which one is right then becomes an issue. It seemse to me to be mostly an arbitrary point based on who your parents are.
Therfore...I can conlude that no particular religion in itself is factually correct. Now...this is not to say that religion doesn't have redeeming philisophical values...but there is no one facutal conscious god behind the universe.
Beyond this (contrary to JBF's belief) there is no direct evidence for any sort of holy or divine experience ever taking place thorugh human history. Religion was invented to explain the natural world. Lighting is cause by Zeus throwing lightning bolts. Don't piss him off an you wont get hit. Its only natural to project human like attributes onto a god, because that is all we know. Therefore...Zues becomes human...has a wife, affairs, children. Its not a jump to make him angry... To protect themselves...rituals (sacrifices) are created to attempt to please the god.
Thus because we need to explain things, (from lighting to war) human-like gods are created. Evidence of their existance. "sure...its all around us!" Lightning happens....it must be Zeus.
To be continued for yours and my sanity's sake. Death to long posts.

That's just asinine.
In fact Whob, just about everything you've said in this thread has been asinine. Be it under the guise of "The Spinner" or "The Gay Guy".

If you are so intelligent then why don't get it straight in your head and figure out who you are talking to first.
Or is it so cloudy up there that you don't know your ass from a whole in the ground. 😮💨
I will show that you are less intelligent than the whob you think I am: You are so gay and I mean in real life.
So who is the whob now whob? 😈
And if you were so intelligent how come you wasted all your "intelligence" and precious time reading my unintelligent posts in this thread. and how come you were even waiting for my unintelligent response... yes! this one. And You are going to respond to it anyway..... Otherwise you will be conceding as defeated. so which way would you go "Guy Guy"? because you can't pull the Bi... thing on this one.
😮💨

Actually, I'd not seen the thread before today. So, I actually started on page one and didn't see your first post until the last page. It's not difficult to figure out when you've entered a thread. You bring the IQ quotient down by quite a few points. Then the interesting threads are just you verbally masturbating your different personas.
So, in an act of desperation you're actually going to accuse ME of being both Whob AND Gay Guy...thus, making it obvious that you are all three, Whob.

very Correct! and I was well aware of that. The use of 'you' is just a figure of speech. And does not pertain to the real you: I don't know anything about you, therefore I cannot comment on you personally and I can only comment on what I read, and that is all it was. I hope this clears out any misunderstanding.
Note: If there is ever a need for it and I see it happening with another member here, they Will know it for sure because I don't try to hide.
Just have fun! and think of me as I don't really exist 😉
