Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

I think that god would want us to be happy and to be true to are selves. Would you want somone to live a lie? Not to be happy like you just because they want to be with the same sex. You cannot help to be what you are. All you can do is be true to yourself. Dont get me wrong its not my choice to be with the same sex, and I wouldnt want to see it on the streets, but who you are and how you feel thats your choice you should not judge them. It takes all kind of people to make a world and we are all differnt in are own way thats what makes us who we are. If we start taking out things that we didnt like about eachother then we would all be the same.

How dull would that be?

In my opinion, I stated this before, we believe in what we do because of our lifelong conditioning. First you have to believe in the foundations of what is or isn't a sin before anything is can actually be considered as such.

If you haven't even been capable of attaining that knowledge, what becomes of that person? From what I understand, ignorance is not an excuse. Again, who needs that type of judgement, or who actually wants it? It is purely circumstantial and based on preference. That alone can be seen as imperfect, therefore void, unjust, and unreliable.

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

Hey well almost everything is a sin dont you think? So why should we care about specifyin on homosexuality?

That should be the least of our worries, like gay marriage, we shouldnt spend so much effort trying to stop it, we need to redirect that energy to keeping criminals and child predators off the streets...

...cuz those crazy yahoos are the sinners to begin with. And how is homosexuality a sin in other peoples eyes anyway?

I mean a homosexual never hurt anybody simply just because they were homosexual right?

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

Homosexuality is a sin and nothing can change that. Ever. But, of course, I don't really mean that. I've read a few scriptures in the Bible about homosexuality being a sin, but I HAVE noticed one little thing in doing so. The Bible describes homosexuality as a desire towards the same sex. Desire can also be classified as lust. So, the Bible probably meant that commiting LUST with the same sex is wrong, but never said that LOVING the same sex is wrong. But, that's just what I think.

Thats cool, cuz i can love the same sex as well, but i dont really care about having sex.

Its just too much artificial happiness for me whether its with a guy or a girl.

Besides sex is gross!!! (and so is food, i mean it.)

Your post doesn't answer my question and if you think it does, than you are missing the meaning from mine.

Sins in general. Let me spell it out for you. From your logic, physically doing what is considered a sin, is a sin; but just because you don't do what you think, isn't. Right?

Ever hear that whole saying about lusting after a woman is the same as cheating on your own?

Now picture a situation that is almost the exact opposite. A person fell onto the railroad tracks and is incapable of getting themselves out of danger. Now there are spectators with this ability, but they hesitate; this hesitation could be anything from the fear of death to just not wanting to help a stranger.
They don't act upon their thoughts..even though they want to help the man desperately: He dies of course. Should they be held responsible?

Why isn't a person held accountable for any real thoughts if the action is within their ability? You can actually be gay and want to lay with the same sex but never do it...aren't you still somehow going against the whole plan then?

Why is the belief foundation any less significant than the actual act? You don't have to be gay to sleep with the same sex. Isn't that concept called freewill? I thought this was one of the main arguments which distinguish humans from animals?

Action is significant, but the latter isn't? We seem to think that way, but you are suppose to be held accountable for any form of action right? Thought that is how God was suppose to judge?
