Apparently you don't know Koine Greek from a Greek laundry list. It's not
clear at all and there is plenty of ambiguity. If Paul wanted to refer to
"homosexuals" clearly and without ambiguity, there were commonly used Greek
words available to him at the time. He didn't use them.
Mais, non! Sodom was destroyed because of souvlaki, not sodomy! That's the real Greek translation.
They were eating too much pork. With tzatziki.

Makes just as much sense as some of these self-righteous hypocritical Bible-humpers.

(They are humpers rather than thumpers because they are also obsessed with sex. )

That's the pedophile mindset which links babies to sex perversions

Take it somewhere else.
Sorry to burst your bubble, I'm not a pedophile. I took your own argument & presented a situation to support your "theory". That's not my problem that you took it as a perversion, I was simply using your own words in my deduction. You are the one who called it learned, not me. So, can you answer the question?

Romans speaks more about the "godless" and I have to say many gays are Godless. Death is a separation from God, not actual killing of people. Amazing how people can't get this part!
Leviticus actually says that a man who lays with another man shall be put to death. So if you believe the Bible is the word of God, you have to believe that gays should be executed. That's the problem with literal interpretations and believing that the Bible was written by God...

Leviticus 20:13: Concerning homosexuality

NKJV: (New King James Version) "If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them."

Yeah, well - we are talking about secular law and only a few cannot grasp that their holy book doesn't enter into such a discussion. They keep bringing it up as though it meant something to anyone but themselves.

Alas, it's good to hear that the bible condones lesbians. Seems to be a step in the right direction. The porn industry realized this decades ago.

Realistically speaking, yes liberals are liars - at least a certain portion of them. So are conservatives and even several moderates.

Thankfully, I'm not one of those moderates. By all means, start a new thread titled as such and we can discuss away.

It's rather despicable to deliberately attempt to harm an organization who have done so much for people in need for do many decades.
To be fair, it was the spokesperson who was saying it and as such it was interpreted as the SA saying it since they follow the religious doctrine known as the bible. A black for them for sure.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself, but as most of us already know all too well, liberals are often shameless when it comes to promoting hate and discontent ... truth and honesty be damned!
You know you nearly had me, but then you called me liberal and I stopped taking you seriously. I've said many a time: I am a moderate. Next time you want to talk about liberals, start your own thread about it, okay?

I read what you posted quite well, thank you. Your concern for my reading comprehension level is touching.

Doesn't change the fact that there are those in the religious right who think like the spokesperson does.

Remember the pastor calling for the corralling of homosexual men and women and putting them into separate pens, only dropping food once every couple of days?

You don't have to watch the video below, but I wanted to post it just so you know I'm not making this up.


Pastor calls for death of homosexuals

Oh cool. While that's nice to hear, the fact that there are those in the SA who believe in such filth like the spokesperson spewed forth is enough to keep my money from them.

I'm sure they're a great organization and all that, but their views conflict with mine so I won't support them.
