Apparently, you have a deep-seated FETISH about anal sex?

If you believe that marriage is merely for procreation or that of legalizing sex, then you are sadly mistaken.
Love is the uniting factor, not the structure of sexual compatibility, nor the capacity to produce children.

Why do you feel the need to make ridiculous comments like that? It does nothing for your cause. Just more bigotry filth from you.

What do you propose to do about it?

What does your side want to do about it?

Do you want to keep ostracizing these human beings, or accept them into society? What does your side want to happen to homosexuals?

Have you invited any of them into your church? Have you asked them to come sit in your pew with you?

I already proposed the solution. Follow God's laws on sexuality and we will have strong marriages and practically no STDS.

Why do you want to encourage them to continue in a lifestyle that is obviously harmful both physically and mentally?

I've posted this before, but I will ask you to tell us WHICH of god's laws do you want to apply?

Point being, saying that there is "only one true set of beliefs" means nothing. Fundamentalists think their version is the one true set of beliefs, liberal Christians think theirs is, muslims think theirs is, atheists think theirs is, pantheists think theirs is.....
No, liberal Christians specifically do not think that there IS only "one true set of beliefs", unless you consider "other spiritual paths have validity" as a "true belief".

Again - people do the dividing, not Christ. See 1 Corinthians 1:13-16.

Jesus wanted unity among His people. See the end of John 17. He prayed for that specifically - that we are one.
Agreed.

So, you are sticking by the whole, "All gay people have unsafe anal sex" line, even though it is patently false???


Also, please, do explain how being gay is harmful for someone mentally. Because the only thing I can see as "harmful" about being gay is having to deal with ignorant bigots who would rather you be dead than walking amongst the "good people" having equal rights and whatnot. In other words, the only thing "harmful" about being gay, is the people who make it that way for them.


You know, the ones that call them abominations, and say they shouldn't be able to be served by Christians or get married to their loved one. Or the ones who say hateful things when they see them holding hands, or showing any PDA at all. How about the ones that beat and murder them? These are the ones that make it "harmful". Without them, there would be no harm had for simply being gay.

This old chestnut again?

Why not ask Jesus? Oh wait, I'll save you the trouble. Here's what Christ said:

Quote:

“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a] 5 and said, ‘[b]For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
Matthew 19:4-6


Just because God permitted other types of unions does not mean that He approved of them. He permitted polygamy, but even warned that it would bring harm and strife. And it did. Only God's design works best.

It appears to be your focus point, not on the relationship itself.
If you take away the anal sex, what are you condemning?
