I haven't read the whole thread, nor will I, but at the point I came in, they were discussing sin in general, which is what I was discussing. Peace
So, you are saying that you read ONLY the post before you posted, because the one before that was:

pretty careless, I'd say. Seems reasonable to conclude that you were talking about homosexuality....not knowing that you really don't follow a conversation
What's funny to me is that you decided I was the one focused on homosexuality, but I said not one word about it in my "soliloquy". Now there's some flesh that got offended. Peace
Since the thread is about homosexuality I figured it was a fair conclusion. I'll make a note you'll use any thread to go off topic and lecture us on whatever strikes your fancy.
People are under the impression that being politically correct about certain things somehow helps the sinners, but they are fooling themselves, and they are fooling the sinner. There are many "victimless" sins as described in Galatians 5: The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. Calling things for what they are does not discriminate against anyone.
When you act without love toward another, YOUR Soul is damaged. What you generate within YOU is black and unclean. You hurt the object of your unlove and their Soul is damaged. YOU own both effects. There is NO WAY to call someone an abomination with love, Finn. It cannot be done.
No, jeff, just their fight to be treated decently just like everyone else. You have no authority to mistreat them, call them names, refuse to hire them, prevent them from marrying the one they love, or refuse to do business with them. Leave them alone and mind your OWN "sins."
Finn, PLEASE point out in my post where it says "harm to others" Whenever I read it it stops at "harm."
Who is harmed in my example?

I expected a dodge, and you didn't disappoint.
