I tried to explain to you that to be a priest, Homosexuality can't be allowed, but you keep insisting on wanting homosexuality as part of (your life) it... Isn't that pathetic????
Well I will the best I cacn. And I'll start this off by saying I have nothing agaisnt gays, and here comes the BUT.
BUT! The Bible says sodomy is wrong, and it says that to deny whhat we were designed for (Hederosexuality) is a sin. And being a gay priest, is, quite simply, wrong. And adovocates of gay priests arguaing that God is wrong and Gays are right isnt gonna change the fact that the bible forbids it. And you cant preach the bible without ageeing with what it say,s, annd I doubt that a gay person would want to preach Gog's dissaproval of gays.
If someone wants to be consistent about his observance of biblical restrictions and prohibitions, then he must also preach and practice abstinence from many other activities that are commonplace in our society. With a few exceptions, most people are not willing to apply the morality of the bible to their lives today, which comes down to hypocrisy.
And basically, if it wasn' t because of the bible, you don' t have any valid arguments at all. As if the bible itself is valid.

Christianity will continue to live by the Bible, or Christianity will cease to exist. The Bible is what makes Chritianity what it is. And to Deny the Bibe is to deny Christianity. So to allow a gay person in to priesthood, is to deny the Bible and in doing so, to deny christianity, thus it becomes a perversion of what the Bible states.
If you go to a church to hear what a priest has to say, what difference does it make if a priest is gay? If they never told you they were gay you'd never know.
and I'm willing to bet heavily on this. Christianity has already evolved on so many points (things the bible forbids that christians all over the globe do anywayz) this will be one of them in a few decades too

The Bible was written over a period of thousands of years, and in that time frame nothing changed which is what makes me belive that God hasnt changed. We chhange becauuse we are still evolving, God is the ulltimate being, so he doesnt change. To try and understand that or to argue that is futile. So untill a prophet comes along and an even NEWER testiment is written that states that God now indorces Homosexuality gays will not be allowed in the church. And if gays ARE allowed in the church, then, like i said, Christianity will become a perversion of what the Bible teaches.
It' s symbolism. It isn' t any holier as when I would bless it.
