It's alright. Jesus loves you, even if you are a filthy sodomite.
Aerotan2008-11-07 23:15:33
You wanna take a shot at my back? Fine.

If you're so convinced of your position, then cite it. Book, chapter, verse, and version.

The idea that Homosexuality itself is condemned in the teachings of a man who preached tolerance and acceptance is laughable, at best, and foolishness, at worst.

So. You're making the claim that being gay is somehow immoral. Back it up.

Yrael's being sarcastic, don't worry. Fairly certain he doesn't care.
Yrael2008-11-07 23:27:24
Leviticus 18:22! I know there is something in John, also!

This is how a matador must feel.
Aerotan2008-11-07 23:38:14
Leviticus is old Jewish code, which doesn't apply to Christians any more than the prohibition against eating shellfish. Which is also in Leviticus. Furthermore, John went out of his way in that particular statement to let people know it was his opinion, not Jesus'. However, I'd like to draw your attention to John for another passage.

QUOTE("1 John 4:7-12 @ NIV")
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Stop taking Yrael seriously.
Noola2008-11-07 23:49:12
Yeah, Yrael was just being silly. He'll just get sillier if you take him seriously.

Which, actually, can be quite funny. wub.gif

whoa there nelly


Didn't someone cite that in California the provisions already exist to give all legal rights of "marriage" to "civil unions"? Honestly, I don't see what the fuss is about if say, preparing taxes looks like:

Check box 101.A if single adult, 101.B if minor, 101.AB if you are married or in a civil union:

101.A
101.B
101.AB etc etc.

That's not even separate but equal, that's just synonym.

If this is actually the case and all the rights do exist, Prop 8 was very nearly literally an argument over using the word marriage.

And yes, Yrael b' trollin'.
Aerotan2008-11-07 23:59:27
Sorry, just seriously miffed by the whole mess. unsure.gif
Yrael2008-11-08 00:06:52
I was serious!
Honest!

Fine, spoil my fun. I even went digging through the pope's speeches. Ignore the fact I had Yakety Sax on repeat.

Why, yes, Yrael, he does. Jesus loves me just as much as he loves that child molester down the street. He loves you just as much as he loves that drunk guy who beats his kids. Jesus loves Aerotan just as much as he loves that crack whore down on 32nd and Broadway, in New York. Jesus loves Desitrus just as much as he loves Celina. And so on, and so forth.

No, those aren't personal attacks. Jesu doesn't care who you are, or what you do, he loves you anyway. Might he disaprove of things you do? Sure. But that doesn't make you less of a person in his eyes. Think he loves that guy in church in a suit, more than he loves that guy in shorts and a t-shirt, in the same church? Nope.

Don't confuse Jesus with his followers, as they aren't the same. I'm not going to pronounce judgement on who is right, and who is wrong, because it's not my place, plain and simple.
Shaddus2008-11-08 00:11:15
By the way, don't confuse the things I've said on the matter, with the things someone who is a religious fanatic would say. I am neither religious, nor a saint. I merely think religion has sent more people to hell than "sin"

Not that I know of, I tried to pick random idiots that people think of as bad, or wtf ever.

I don't even have to *try*.

I love you.

Hey, there's a thought. Does it make the supposed hell that much more terrible if it is really there to *improve* you? I'm sure I'll find out on death. I'll let you know.
Shaddus2008-11-08 00:25:37
What is Hell, but a big flaming swat on the rump after death, if you didn't follow the rules?

Heh. These are only my opinions, of course. But I don't see anyone who HAPPENS to be homosexual, as any different as someone who isn't. The way I see it, the more men who like other men, the better the male/female ratio goes up. ninja.gif

Big deal. So some guy likes other guys. It's a double standard anyway.


Guys who are attracted to guys? Eww, Gross.

Two lesbians?

:silence:

What, no gagging?
