I think a lot of people on here don't know what the word homosexual means. It means you have an attraction to people of the same sex. Nothing more. Sex has nothing to do with that. It's something extra.

ahh but see.. I didn't mention lust. I mentioned love.



Right.. which is why I said love.. and not lust..



Again.. which is why I mentioned love.... and didn't mention anything about perverted sexual desires (as you did).
You're a trooper bigthirsty ... but you'll never win your arguement. LUST is how they feel it..oops, sorry, I meant to say "see" it : )

This is not hiding behind God's Word this proclaiming God's Word. You choose not to listen because then you might have to change your lifestyle which is not convenient for you.
Hummm.... so far, I think Lesbians are exempt? Unless they are "effeminate" lesbians : ))

Nice try...but I don't think that arguement will work.

why not? All I've seen and or heard so far about lesbians is "unnatural". Well it's all a mute point anyway as I live by the 10 commandments - God's Law - period!

Homosexuality - Definitions from Dictionary.com

Quote:
Sexual desire or behavior directed toward a person or persons of one's own sex.

Sexual orientation to persons of the same sex.

Sexual activity with another of the same sex.

A sexual attraction to (or sexual relations with) persons of the same sex
These are all definitions from various sources.

The key word is "sexual" and it is either associated with a "thought for" which I already discussed or an "action of".

One can not negotiate with God. Those who pick and choose do not follow him, but dictate to him what they will follow.

Question What would Jesus do?

So is Jesus contradicting God when he tells you that you should love a gay man or women as much as you love yourself?
Or that you should treat homosexuals the same way you yourself want to be treated?

"...in your opinion" - you forgot to add that part to your post. And where did I say I pick and choose? I don't agree with the bible.. it's a book..a story... a translation..an intreptation by man for man.

the practice of homosexuality is condemned in some religions. dropping your membership in that group if you are homosexual would be appropriate and show good standards. i dont think attacking others is appropriate for any church group. i dont think gay militant groups attempting to change a church or attack it is appopriate.
gay churches already exist join them if you wish.
