As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

As for you and your house, its up to you what you do.

If you think homosexuals are being unfairly discriminated here in the United States, perhaps you will get your way one day. That's not out of the realm of possibility in a society governed by laws.

However, Judgement Day won't be as ambiguous as our laws. One thing Muslims and Christians agree on, which by the way number in the billions together worldwide, is that there will be a Judgement Day. The law of averages suggests that the homosexuals are not on the winning side of this equation.

I understand that, but when you throw around a word like "sodomists" and it's clear that you're targeting homosexuals with that word, I don't see anything wrong with pointing out the fact that most heterosexuals are "sodomists" too.

Yeah? So? And in the 1950s, it was considered highly inappropriate to say the word "pregnant" in polite conversation. Things change.

And some blacks prefer to be called African-American. And some old people prefer to be called "mature". People can call themselves whatever they want. I still don't understand why that bothers you so much.

How many homosexuals go around saying, "I am a sodomist" instead of saying "I am gay?"
Oh my god, please you are seriously stretching here. Sodomy is an act Einstein. I'm a heterosexual, should I instead be walking around calling myself "a vaginal sex" person? No, because vaginal sex is simply an act, it doesn't describe me as a person or group. Where the hell do you come up w/these things?

I see. Judgement day is going to be based on majority rule then.

I'm glad I don't believe mythologies.

Judgment day. When all those who judge, when explicity told "Thou shall not...", will be judged?

As Dylan put it..."Everybody must get stoned."

The word pregnant was inappropriate to say on TV. I don't think it applied to actual life, though.

Because homosexuals essentially hijacked a common word to make themselves sound more "acceptable."

Nope. Not majority rules at all. It starts with believing in God and his teachings. If that is not something you're interested in, so be it. But that does not negate what billions of people believe, and that is that there will be a Judgement day.

But, if you want to put a majority rules component to it, then how do you reason that BILLIONS of people worldwide are somehow wrong?

I'll put another twist on it. If you don't believe in God, then what year is it?

True, it applies to many heteros, but it does still include all practicing homosexuals.

It is inaccurate to say "most heterosexuals," though.

Wrong, my friend is gay & he does not engage in anal sex. Any other inaccurate assumptions you'd like to throw around?
