It most likely wasn't even the worst of the sins. Was homosexuality in one of the ten commandments? It may be in the whole 'unnatural law' bit, but these people were guilty of perhaps far worse crimes than that of homosexuality. I see and read far more trials involving honor, courage, love, greed, and selflesness, than trials involving homosexuality. Saying that it was the cause or using it as an excuse doesn't seem to bear much logic.

Eh, guess the dispute over whether or not Sodom and Gomorrah actually existed wouldn't mean anything either I suppose. There are plenty of writers who use names, symbols, metaphors, and previous occurrences and situation to pass along their message.

Did they come up with the name Sodom and Gomorahh before the destruction or after? Sounds a bit too convenient in my opinion.


i will look it up and post it but there is proof of Sodom and gomorrah existing in some dead sea scrolls they found and for the reason I'm sure they were but being gay is being righteous it was just of many things that god didnt aprove of i have yet to read any scripture that says god let the lover of only
men into the kingdom of heaven , yeah i know that isnt what is stated.

but the point is that you cant just sit there and say that god condones this
because if he did they would mention it as a good thing

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

Well, I'm not going to try and explain away all the rotting, religiously extremist, and down right ignorant tripe I've read on this thread so far like I usually do (AIDS exclusively a gay disease? ). I've got a life now . So I'll just share the truth with all of you.

Homosexuality, or being gay, is not a willful trespass of satanic influence against Allah or whatever you devout religious goers call it. It is infact a condition of the brain which cannot be helped; A hormonal imbalance or a malformation which occures during those 9 months floating around the womb.

Homosexuality is not simply a sex fetish like being obsessed with feet like many of you may so ignorantly assume. Being gay is not a choice, you are born that way; Like someone is born with Down Syndrome. Do you think they chose to be born with Down Syndrome? Hell no, and just like being gay I bet that most if not all of them wish they were born normally.

No one would simply choose to be put through mentally crippling torment and persecution just so they can have their way with someone of the same sex. The only reason someone would put up with that is if they couldn't help it. Why can't they help it? Becuase they were born that way.

Take yet-to-be transgender children for example. The youngest ever case of transgender feelings (I don't know the more complicated word) is age 6. Now a child cannot simply choose to act and play the part of the opposite sex. There are very few proffesional actors who are 6 years old, so it is highly unlikely that these children are simply wanting to play dressup for the rest of their lives. However, it is more likely and quite frankly udeniable, that these children are born this way. They do not have a choice; This also applies to homosexuals.

It's not a choice, it's how they're born. How is this concept so hard to grasp?

Call it whatever you like; A malfunction, disease, malformation, hormonal imbalance or even (ugh) a fetish. Just please don't go around blasting away with your ignorance calling it a "Sin".

And for God's sake (no pun intended) don't go around with a mind as narrow as a damn toothpick thinking that AIDS is a gay-only disease specificaly designed to punish homosexuals. Your mother could contract the epidemic virus just as easily as any gay man nowadays. But if believing God killed your mother will get you off that bollocks called the Bible then by all means keep believing that AIDS was created by a pissed off deity.

That covers gays, but what about Andrognyns? I mean theyre not gay, les, bi technichally speaking. They like either sex, but not becuase of theyre sex you know? So how could that be a chemical imbalance?

(and if you dont know wat Andrognyn is heres a link to wikipedia that will explain it)

Androgyny - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oh and for those of you who dont know, gender and sex are two completely different things, so dont get them confused, i recommend looking up these two words to avoid confusion, if you check em up in the wikipedia it explains it rather nicely.

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

I personally aren't religious at all nor do I believe in the bible or anything, so to me it is definitely not a sin. What I believe it comes down to is just, along with everything in life; people just like.. different things. o_o What type of people you like, what you believe is beautiful/looks good, and even what gender you're attracted to. I don't think it's within anyones right to condemn people just for being who they are.

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

If homosexuality is not a sin, God would have created another man for Adam instead of Eve.

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

The bible say it is a sin but but if god made every one with a purpous that means that he ment for some people to be gay and or lessbean. I personaly belive in a higher power like god but think that the bible is a load of crap. and thats my thought on the story

Re: Is Homosexuality a sin?

i dont think its a sin if a guy likes another guy or a girl likes another girl, but what i dont get is why sometimes when guys are gay they think they have to act more feminine around people instead of just acting like another guy, unless they were already feminine to start out with. i think its stupid when gay guys act feminine and talk all girly and stuff. it ticks me off.
