Dictionary definitions are emotions. The reams of peer reviewed studies you have been presented are emotional.
Whatever. I do not treat people I don't hate the way you treat homosexuals. I wouldn't treat my worst enemy the way you treat homosexuals. But if that is what you consider caring about people it just solidifies that my decision to leave religion and your god behind was a good choice.
Really? Seriously? You tell me I'm full of hate and suggest I'm a bigot because I disagree with you. I'm sorry if you can't handle a simple disagreement. Perhaps you ought not to get involved in the discussion to start with if you are unwilling to discuss it rationally.
]Both sides have their share of constituents who keep bringing it out in the open and both to me are distasteful.[/b] I get tired of hearing how horrible it is to be gay and I do not appreciate seeing gay marchers exhibit sexual affection en masse in public. I am uncomfortable seeing movies or tv programs where gay couples are kissing but that is just my personal taste and if they can show heterosexual kissing and hugging it's only fair to show affection among gay couples as TV has nothing to do with Christian values at all.
By the way, I wanted to say that I agree with this. I don't think the public lewd behavior does the cause any favors. Of course, I'm equally uncomfortable seeing heteros being lewd or couples going at in public (including the passionate kissing) or in movies. I don't see love in that, I see exhibitionism and attention-seeking. It cheapens ... the higher ideals of love. It shows a lack of self-control and respect and caring for oneself, for the person you are with, for whatever relationship you are in. But, maybe I'm a prude. I dunno.
I think we should provide a special place where people who choose to be homosexual could all live together and have to deal with those who don't approve of their choices.
OP: You wanted Christians to think about this. Well here ya go! A response. This poster listed "Christian" as his religion on his CD member profile. Happy?

"Rationally."
Hehehe.
I guess in Viz-speak that means only using biblical quotes to back up one's "logic."

Well when you ask for a Christian's opinion, your going to get facts based on Biblical principle. If you don't like it, then don't ask. I suggest you continue on canoodling with your atheist cohorts if you want a detailed discussion arched to your ideological preferences.

I don't think you're the go-to guy around these parts when it comes to discussing what's rational or not.
err ... look at how and why the bible was assembled. Man is misusing the words of god to be a weapon. Look at DNA and the chemicals that make you up to understand that "gay" is an inevitable outcome. Now, is it "god" or Humans that don't understand?
for today you are right. The word "never" is foolish here in that it implies far more than you know.
But you are 1/2 right. Nothing in of itself explains any universal will. And DNA is a storage method not an "explain" method anyway. DNA shows us how god may be working but the reasons are unkown for now. And DNA shows that "poof there it is" is not even a reasonable guess to how he works.
