Oh please do explain/elaborate upon what homogenous means.

You implied that homosexuality is nothing but an "oral or other fixations." Homosexuality is an innate attraction. Behavior, or being orally fixated with something has nothing to do with it.

And I for one have no problemo with anyone expressing racial pride, it's the enforcement part that's a problem.

As I stated I may be in somewhat of a different position because I can choose.

I don't think many Christians actually know that verses like 1 Cor 6-9 were re-written to use the word 'homosexuals' only in the 1940's.

Or that the KJV translators 're-wrote' the Hebrew word qadesh (which means cult prostitute) as 'sodomites'.


Blue Letter Bible - Lexicon

Just one example is:

Deut 23:17 "None of the daughters of Israel shall be a cult 6948 prostitute nor shall any of the sons of Israel shall be a cult 6945 prostitute.

KJV:

Deut 23:17 There shall be no w-h-o-re 6948 of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite 6945 of the sons of Israel


Blue Letter Bible - Search Results for KJV


Strongs 6945 qadesh = male temple prostitute


Strongs 6948 qĕdeshah = female temple prostitute

Re-write the bible? c'mon. Who's been doing the re-writing?

So you don't actually know that verses like 1 Cor 6-9 were re-written to use the word 'homosexuals' only in the 1940's? Or that the verse had been previously used to condemn masturbation, not homosexuals for centuries?

Or that the KJV translators 're-wrote' the Hebrew word qadesh (which means cult prostitute) as 'sodomites'?

Also I' am familiar with living wills, so that would not be a problem for me. Now if there is some type of gay tax penalty, fault the right entity- the governments.
What are you talking about? Living wills? Tax Penalty?

Interesting Freudian slip. Perhaps you could look up the meaning of the word homogenous.

Freud certainly could clear-up things for a great many here but as we all know psychiatry was poo-pooed in '72-'73 by money and influence, so let's not go there.

Have a great one....Be fruitful and multiply.
