Like Pleroo, you are dodging the question.

Based on statistics I've seen posted on this forum, I think the answer is yes, in some countries that is true. Now you: do people, whether gay or straight, risk contracting STDs outside of a monogamous relationship?

Oh, good grief. Plenty of straight men act like total creeps and participate in behavior that is risky to themselves and harmful to others. Ask any woman who has been raped. I guess all heterosexual men are abominations because some of them are a**hats.

God does not just have love or express love, God IS AGAPE LOVE, period. That is a huge difference that you seem unable to contemplate or understand. The only judgment we face is of our own making. We will reap whatever we sow and did not repent of. That means Hitler, after his death, had to personally experience ALL the hurt and harm he inflicted on millions of Jews and others during his life. That may not be Hell, but I am sure it seems like it to Hitler. The thing is, it is NOT God doing it.

Moreover, as a human, is it possible that you comprehend wrong about God and His love. What happens if your understanding is wrong and your influence will bring a bad consequence to those who believe you (i.e., God will not judge and sentence). Where's your love in this case?
Again. We will reap whatever we sow, period, but no more and no less than we sow. We are establishing our own consequences.

Yes.

Are you still saying that gay sex is not harmful?

Betting my life on what? That a God who is Love isn't sending anyone to eternal torment. Or that God is perfectly capable of convicting people of things in their own life that need tending to?

I did not make any such statement. You did, though. Do you stand by that?

It's not a dodge, just a question to get you to think.

Lol. Neither homosexual sex not heterosexual sex is harmful in itself, but risky promiscuous behavior is harmful whether gay or straight. Agreed?
