I believe God, but he showed me people like you are wrong. Therefore I will trust what God has shown me, over your ill informed opinion and ignorance.

That wasn't my question. You've answered why it's unnatural (although I find your explanation for that completely unconvincing - not to mention that many homosexuals do not have anal sex - I even know a few gay virgins).

Here's what I asked if you want to take another shot: Without invoking your Bible - which holds no influence over me whatsoever (or our secular laws) - explain to me why my homosexuality, my loving another man and him loving me back, is "sinful." Why is it wrong? What harm does it cause?

Being gay is not a choice. If it were, you would be able to turn gay for a day, and then turn back to straight. I guarantee you can't do that. By the way, when did you choose to be straight? Please describe in detail the mental process and decision making you went through to decide to be straight.
I know gays who came out of homosexuality. They chose to be an over comer of lust and lustful thoughts.

You could always turn your computer off or just avoid threads that bother you. Personally I don't understand why you would be here if it bothers you, this is a forum and people come here to BS, if I were you I wouldn't take this stuff so seriously, this is entertainment.

Talk to your maker. He will answer you if you listen.

And I have answered but you do not like my answer. I have told you and you have been given free choice by your maker.

Your beliefs are different than mine- so be it. God loves you and I love you.

Don't you see, That is the problem, You don't understand your illness and no matter who explains it or how it's explained you dont get it because you don't want to admit your sick so it does nobody any good to explain it to you over and over. It' a waste of everybodies time. You still want to think people with a different view than yours is hate.

Please, explain it to me. I'm still waiting. I'd love to hear an actual argument for once (although I highly doubt you'll supply one - you'll once again avoid actually supporting your position by again saying something like "I would tell you, but I'd just be wasting my time").
