Except the sexual sins affects the person like no other sin. I think that's part of the reason people take more offense to this particular sin than stealing, murder, etc.
But I am looking for people to explain why homosexuality should be considered as valid.
So far, this "sin" hasn't affected me in any negative way... other than having to put up with bigotry.
But no one is going to explain this to you because your mind is already made up. You're just here looking for validation of your beliefs.
Do you seriously believe that people think sexual sins are more offensive than murder? Really?
I am saying (for example) those who practice homosexuality take greater offense at being called out on sin than a murderer or a thief because it becomes part of their identity.
They cant, they will simply attack you.
If a pastor or any believer comes out and says they dont agree with that lifestyle, they are attacked and labeled hate speech, bigoted, and start putting down the bible once you challenge them and more... yet the bible CLEARLY says that lifestyle is a sin, yet they still want to take part in a religion that 100% says what they are doing is wrong and must be repented of.
But be prepared for a onslaught on comments and attacks before this thread like most that deal with homosexuality gets shut down after about 2-3000 replies in a 3 day span of going back and forth.

Yeah - my mind is made up. Part is faith... part is because of how male/females are designed. There's a common sense behind the faith when you look at how the parts are designed to go together.
I am asking for the other side of this - other than just mere insults and name calling.
John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."
The bible also speaks against incest too in Leviticus, so does that mean as long as I love everyone, that im free to have sexual relations with my close family too?
Love doesn't equal disobedience to our fleshy desires.

That's not what you said. You said "people take more offense to this particular sin than stealing, murder, etc."
