What totally ridiculous comments!!! This post is about same sex marriage, the actions of the homo...act is part of same sex marriage. I admit, I am disgusted at the actions of homosexuals, but I do not dwell on their aberration in my real life. I feel awkward when I see tow men kissing in public, or carrying on like they have to promote themselves to those that are not interested in their promotion, nothing would arouse me less than the thought of anal sex with another male, or female for that matter. So stop the stupidity, Please.
I consider myself to be trying to be a true Christian...Homosexuality is not a Christian ethic.
Stop calling us "homo"s. It is incredibly offensive.
One does not "try" to be a Christian. You either are, or you are not. There is no "try." By your complete lack of even a base line level of human empathy, or Christ-like love, it does not seem you are even trying.
Stop calling us "homo"s. It is incredibly offensive.
Thank you. It is a disgusting, offensive word that is used for one reason: to degrade and demean people. I've zero respect for "Christians" who make a big deal about their beliefs.....then mock and demean the LGBTQ community. Especially when it is done to advance their religious agenda.
It is rather strange non Christians are trolling the Christian area of this site, but I see no or barely any Christians trolling the atheist section or the pagan section.
Sure being a Christian does not mean you will be popular and even have worldviews that is different from non Christians. Jesus Christ warned the believers about that.
Anyway the GLBT crowd are targeting Churches due to their stance on gay marriage and will continue to do so. The GLBT crowd even if there are Christian supporters there believe God can change his stance on homosexuality but the Bible is clear on its stance on homosexuality.
Sure eating pork was forbidden in the old testament and it was aimed for the Jews, but Jesus states that all food is clean, and it is not what comes in the mouth that is unclean, but what comes out with the heart desires that can be unclean. Yet homosexuality is seen a sin in both the old testament and the new testament.
My "conduct"; also known as my "behavior or my "lifestyle"
I spend a lot of time with my computer, because that is one of my passions. It's the only thing I'm really good at.
I tend to stay up late because I'm a night owl.
I also spend a lot of time with friends, I go to church, which I lovey much, and attend a women's study/prayer group once a week, which I also very much enjoy.
I talk to friends on various social media platforms, because I love my friends.
I pray often.
That's really all I do, aside from eating, sleeping, showering and other things. The other things, just to calm your fears involve waste removal, and I'm not going into detail about it.
If you're concerned about "what I do in bed", quite frankly, that's none of your business. But for full disclosure, I'll tell you, please forgive the next sentence for being gratuitously graphic:
It's a bed, I sleep there.
So that's my "conduct." My "behavior." My "lifestyle."
Please, I await your reply with anticipation, really I do. Do tell me what is so abnormal about my "chosen behavior", and why you refuse to see me as an equal?
What you do in your bedroom and with who(of legal age) does not concern me one tiny bit. I respect others liberties. And, I'm betting I would like as a person knowing you were gay(assuming you are). As I stated earlier, I do not believe marriage is the business of governments.
Where I differ with many here is whether homosexuality should be given official recognition as equal to our natural biological state. If it were normal and natural, it would reproduce and not be such a small portion of human sexual activity. IMO, it deviates from our natural state. This is not to say that it is wrong, evil or repulsive.
Geekigurl, it is not my intention to insult anyone and I sincerely hope you are not offended.
This is an example of when gay marriage is leagalised in a country where things can end up:
Also there been cases in Canada where there is political correctness go overboard in regards to gay marriage.
television anchor on a prominent sports show was immediately dismissed after he posted his support for “the traditional and true meaning of marriage” on Twitter.
A Roman Catholic bishop in Alberta, Fred Henry, was charged with a human-rights violation for writing a letter to local churches outlining the Catholic position on marriage.
An evangelical Christian marriage commissioner in Saskatchewan was successfully sued for refusing to marry a homosexual couple, despite assisting the couple by putting them in touch with another marriage commissioner who would be willing to conduct the ceremony. Hundreds of Canadians have faced legal proceedings over same-sex marriage | Christian Concern
When gay marriage is legalised in a country, it not just christian organisations that are targeted but the churches as well despite if there is separation of church and state. I believe it will continue to do so.
So much for a society where it has traditionally valued free speech, and political correctness of a nation can destroy the foundations of a healthy democracy.

It is disgusting, and offensive. But they don't care. They claim to love us, but they are empty words. There is no love whatsoever in their hearts toward those different from them.

Free speech goes both ways. Free speech does not mean you can say whatever you want without any response. What you want is free speech for you only. It does not work that way.

Even as a Christian, I did not argue against gay marriage based on the bible. The bible has no place in American law.

Well of course you can get a response but, of course even if you disagree with someone does not make it a right not to take a stance on it.
Anyway this is the road where Western society is at:
“Our culture has accepted two huge lies. The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.”
Where I differ with many here is whether homosexuality should be given official recognition as equal to our natural biological state. If it were normal and natural, it would reproduce and not be such a small portion of human sexual activity.
We're referring to the natural act of sexual intimacy between two consenting adults that has nothing to do with reproduction ...even by heterosexuals most of the time. So, as long as intimacy or sexual bonding is occurring (as intended either by homosexuals or heterosexuals) then why should reproduction even come into the equation? If you want reproduction then we seem to be doing fine in that area according to the figures re world population.

But, now that you've stated your opinion (which is your entitlement) and we've all heard it, it's not something that you're going to keep repeating or making a big deal about ...right?
