BUT that doesn't mean we should turn against homosexuals. Jesus commanded us to love our neighbors, and that means everyone. He didn't say, "Love all thy neighbors but the homosexual ones."
No, homsexualty is not a sin, unless you believe it is. So i believe it isnt. And if you are so certain that homosexuality is a sin then prove it with facts, not references.

Homosexuality, to me isn't sinning, who are we to tell people who they should love and who they shouldn't love. We can't control who we fall in love with so why should be control people when they love someone of the same sex?

If we controlled homosexuals to love members of the opposite sex then shouldn't we all have to be controlled? its not fair to control over people to love if others are allowed to love freely.

-In Romans 1:26-27 Paul is very specific, “For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet.”


-In 1 Corinthians 6:9, Paul wrote, “Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind.”

Those excerpts from the Bible state how homosexuality is a sin. However, the Bible clearly teaches that God is love, as well as that God shows love. For example, 1 John 4:8-9 says, "He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him."

If you won't believe in references from the Bible, then I'm sorry I can't give you anything else. If you're looking to see some kind of physical judgment passed on to homosexuals by God, you're probably not going to see it. We don't just conclude that homosexuality is a sin because, say, statistics show that more bad things happen to homosexuals than the average person. I wouldn't believe that for a moment.

For exact references look at White Wolf's post (above).

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

Ok, here is a weird way of looking at this...

In the bible it says not to judge others. So those who say that homosexuality is a sin, then aren't you judging others?? The bible can contradict its self in many ways. Yes as White Wolf says, God is about Love and forgiveness and teaches that one should follow in Christ's foot steps. But This is reality. Things aren't the same as in those days. Things have changed in many ways. Yes beliefs are about following scripture, but then its also about personal opinions. there is a few things in the bible i don't agree with but I still say I am christian. Homosexuality, isn't a sin because its about loving someone. Love is about helping and being with that person no matter what.

It isn't a fact of certainty. It's based on opinion, religion, and how your perspective on life in general is. Those who are religious do not neccessarily believe homosexuality is a sin, but because the Bible says it is, that is what they look to for facts. It's the closest thing we have to connect us to God.

Being bisexual (bi) is when someone is attracted to the same, yet opposite sex. So they may be attracted to women, and still be attracted to men. HETEROSEXUAL is when you are attracted to the OPPOSITE sex.
