That is what homosexuality is. Having sex with the same gender. It is not loving someone.

I don't take kindly to bigots, "divine" or human. Never have, never will.

I judge people by the contents of their hearts, their actions and their lives. If they are good , kind, loving and gentle people then favourably. If they don't hurt anyone else what is your problem with it ?

If bigoted , petty, mean, cruel or nasty then I judge them less than positively.

Who they happen to love ( and have sex as part of that love) is none of my business and completely irrelevant.

So everyone is supposed to believe as you do I take it ?

When your knees buckle and you bow down to God, you'll change your mind.

godspeed,

freedom

You know that's not true, and you've said as much. You admitted (in the other thread, I believe) that gay people can and do love each other. So yes, homosexuality can be and very often is loving someone, just as heterosexuality is. I'm not sorry if that offends you.

Oh and by the way, the Roman empire disintegrated AFTER it converted officially to Christianity. Take a history class, dude.
Guess I should read and stop watching the History channel!

Grow up and stop telling me what I will do .

You don't know anything about me or any of the other people on this forum. I have had experiences you will never even begin to comprehend and my knees may physically have buckled but I never bowed down to god. Not once. Why should I bow down to an imaginary character ?

I wish your knees would buckle under common sense and logic. That would be a start.

I stand by that. Love is not sex. A gay man can love another man, that is straight or gay. When they have sex or lust is when they go against the laws of God.

I'm not telling you what to do, i'm telling you what you are going to do. There is a difference.
The scriptures say every knee will bow, and so they shall....

When all is over the righteous shall stand...hopefully we'll all be standing...

godspeed,

Gay use to mean happy, joyous. Now it means Men with Men having sex.

NAMBLA is pushing for the legalization of adult men to sodomize juvenile children without it being illegal, it has nothing to do with love. It is the opposite of love.

And I've been pushing for the legalization of BigThirsty to become king of the world. Guess what.. it ain't gonna happen. However, I do find it interesting that you bring that particular group into this discussion. I'm now thinking you believe all gay men want to have sex with juvenile children.

Is that true? Is that what you think?

If so then you can see why its so easy for others to throw "Christians" into the Westboro Baptist Church crowd.. Its so easy.. becasue its so ignorant.

So 'freedom' I guess you would be fine with a gay couple who no longer has sex but just stay together because they love each other.

It doesn't matter what I would be fine with. What is God fine with.

And how is one gay if they don't have sex? I have men friends that I love, and I never have sex with them. Nor do I lust after them.
Some may be considered effeminate, thats a whole other issue.

This whole thread i've been consistent on representing what i believe are God's rules, and how i wish to teach my children without being branded as a bigot, or hatemonger, or homophobe.
If some of you don't get that i can have a belief and opinion without taking it into the emotional hate or condemnation level, then what can i do about that, you either get it or you don't...

godspeed,

freedom
