Fleet is right about that one. The way homosexuals have sex, oral or otherwise, is "sodomy". However, I've yet to see a reason that "sodomy" is bad.
President Clinton said that it was only fooling around - and not a sexual relation.

A poll of U.S. universities at the time said overwhelmingly that sodomy wasn't sex.

Please give us an example of a "Christian word" that is not in the dictionary.

Yeah, but there are races of homosexuals.

That simply means you were born heterosexual, nothing more.

Had you been born homosexual you would know that just as surely.

Could you share with us exactly what Jesus said about homosexuals?

I would prefer a red-letter quote, if you would be so kind.

Thanks.

I want to say something about Gay marriage!! Everyone can do whatever they want it. If gay people want to get married It Is Okay for me,go ahead and marry. That will never change anything in the world. I think that the poverty will still exsit everywhere.

People always listen to their own mind not yours, so we don't need to fight.
I really don't care who you sleep with behind the door.

In Egypt we don't have a problem like this one but I like to say my opinion in general.
In my life I accept all kinds of people and respect their desires and needs.

And the fact that billions of people believe does not prove that there will be a judgement day.

Again, I'm glad I don't believe in mythologies.

I don't want to. Another commenter did. That's what I was questioning.

And billions of people can be wrong. Everyone thought the world was flat at one time. Truth is not a popularity contest.

I also think they are wrong because they cannot prove they are right.

It's 2009. Is that a trick question?

Does it really change anything? Will gay people love thier partner more? It seems like gay people dont care about shoving thier lifestyle down everyones throat. Because they are gay, everyone who is not MUST accept it 100%?
It would be a non-issue if all you homo-haters our there just let them live in peace, they wouldn't feel the need to "push it down your throats" (funny choice of words when talking about gay people)...

Honestly, I don't see how anyone can be against gay marriage because it has no direct effect on their lives. The thing is, marriage is more than just a piece of paper, it's also a powerful contract that has a lot of meaning in various legal areas, including insurance, hospital visitation and inheritance. Simply put, it's a lot more than just a piece of paper, it has numerous tax ramifications. Nobody is forcing your church to do anything, and I have no problem with the Baptist Church saying "we wont marry gays within our faith" because there are plenty of other sects of Christianity that will.

Nobody is forcing Gay marriage on you, by voting to support it I am not saying that you or your son MUST marry a man. I'm just giving the option to people who already have it tough enough (who wants to be a gay person with all the ridicule and hatred for them?), but by taking your position, you are FORCING Gays to live as you think they should. That's not America.

I wonder how Christians would regard homosexual acts performed outside of a marriage relationship - especially if it were legal for gays to wed.

Well sure - For instance some homosexuals are Caucasian, whilst others are Catholic.
