Hi, BF!

Just because I don't buy your particular line of bull, does not mean I am "unteachable", and every time you say something this ignorant, you further prove my point. You guys NEED people like me to be "unteachable" and "dishonest", so you can continue to float along blissful in your little bubble of ignorance. Thinking I am nothing more than an angry God hater helps you with that. And it's funny, because I keep asking you guys where I have been dishonest, and you can't ever seem to come up with an answer... Why is that?

Oh good grief. This again? This is why I say you've displayed an obnoxious attitude and are unteachable.
I've told you what I meant by this many many times. No (huge eyeroll), homosexuals are not alcoholics, or kleptomaniacs, etc.....some might be, but they are are not the same sin. The fact that you can't get past that simple little statement speaks volumes.

They're sin. They're all sin. We are called to deny our sin and follow Christ.
I even went as far as to post the official definition of "equate" which means to say the two things are the same and she still ignored it. Someone like that just can't admit they are wrong on anything. I guess they think if they keep repeating the false points enough, people will believe it.

You mean like quoting and misrepresenting us? Is that wrong?

Saying that we equated gay people to pedophiles was being quite dishonest. We even specifically said that we do not believe such a thing at all and you still continue to make the claim. Enough with the word games. You know exactly the point we were making.

Repeatedly having something explained to you about what I believe, then continuing to lie about me and misrepresent what I say leads me to say you are unteachable. Either that or you're maliciously dishonest. Unteachable sounds better.

Are adulterers having to "deny themselves", BF? I fail to see how this relates to homosexuals. As an adulterer, you are making a choice to commit adultery, and you are harming others. Again, not remotely similar to being gay. Wanna try and explain how it is?

I said you are equating the two, not that you are saying they are those things. Why do you guys always do that? Change what someone said? Do you have a handbook that shows you how or something?

The point, since you clearly didn't address it, is that you equate being gay to other sins, yet you treat it differently. Why is that? Why do you think God calls for gay people to "deny themselves", but not others? And please, do not use examples that make no sense, such as being an alcoholic (not part of who you are, and a choice, and harms), kleptomania (a crime, not part of who you are, harms, a choice), or adultery (not part of who you are, harms others, a choice), because those aren't comparable.

You do know that a lot of people do not consider being gay a sin? Including many Christians? So there is no "sin" to be embraced. There is harm in EVERY community, Jeff, and I haven't said otherwise. Being gay in and of itself does no harm. Having gay relations, in and of themselves, does no harm.

Those STD stats? You guys have only shown it for gay men. What about gay women? The damage to Christian business owners? Brought upon themselves, by being discriminatory, and just generally being idiots.

As I have said before, on this very thread, I disagree with anything being done that early in life. There are bad parents everywhere, as well, and the mom in your article is clearly one of them. And these are straight parents, as well, so you can hardly blame the gay community for that, can you?

And I explained to you what I meant. Just because you aren't smart enough to read and understand it, doesn't change that fact. If you don't think that two things are the same, similar, etc, you wouldn't use one in an argument against the other. So, come back when you have an ounce of integrity and honesty, and we can talk. I know that won't happen though, because you have made it clear that you don't there is anything wrong with equating and comparing gay people to pedophiles and other things.

Yes.

Homosexuality is a sin. So is sex outside of marriage.

Completely irrelevant. The Bible never gives a disclaimer to a sin for a condition of not harming anyone else.

If God is important to us, we should be willing to deny ourselves. Whatever the sin.

No. I'm not. Just please stop with this stupid nonsense. I will not be responding to any more posts of your's if you continue this garbage.

Explained many times before what I meant. Your dishonesty and continued ignorance matters not in the least.

Like what, BF? What did I misrepresent, EXACTLY. Please, do tell, so I can explain to you what I said, again. Maybe the 41st time will be the charm.
