Rcwj75, don't worry, for the Bible specifically addresses "homosexuality/lesbianism."

"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them hath committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." (Leviticus 20:13) (Also read Genesis chapters 18 - 20, and Romans chapter 1). ~ King James Version

The Bible also covered "Bestiality/Beastility."

"And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." (Leviticus 20:16) ~ King James Version

God covered everything is His Word!

Loon, sorry, but you are wrong, for I am "not" that other dude. And, I did think up those words myself. LOL!!!!

If you would take those Q-Tips out of your nose, then you might be able to think more clearly, and wouldn't jump to such judgemental conclusions!

Rape,child molesting, arson, vandalisim, buring the bible and whiping jesus are not listed in the ten. love your neighbor does not say you cant love him with your mouth below the waist.

Young Stalin, let's see. If you are a follower of Stalin and his teachings, then that implies that you are an atheist, or agnostic, which answers as to why you made such an uneducated observation.

Jesus said that there were two great commandments, and they are to one, love God with all your heart, soul and mind, and two, to love your neighbor as yourself, for "On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." (Matthew 22:37-40) ~ King James Version

So, if we follow God and do all He says, plus love our neighbor as we would want to be treated, then do you think we would rape, commit arson, molest children, or any of those other sins that you mentioned? I should think not, for they are all sins against mankind, and against God! So, if we love God, and our fellow man, then it would automatically follow that we would do none of those other things, understand?

Exodus 20:17, KJV

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's.

all the best.

wrong.

covet: to desire wrongfully, inordinately, or without due regard for the rights of others.

how can this law be twisted to condemn homosexuality? because it mentions manservant? if this is the original wording, then it implies ownership of a human. the manservant is treated as property, ie: slavery

i believe your god's word for sexual intercourse is fornication. nowhere in your law is it mentioned.

hmm, a god that takes slavery into consideration...i believe this is not a god i would choose to follow.

It is in the Ten commandments. You shall not covet your neighbors wife or your neighbors house and honor your mother and your father.

Although you cannot see because of the darkness of this world. Your hardcore Gay lover, is in reality your mother or daughter, for girls, or your father or son, for boys.

And your longterm hardcore Gay love relationship deprives a women from her husband and a man from his wife.

The darkness is a real SOB, how's that for Knowledge?


Show me a gay man or woman and I'll show you a person who has issue with a parent. The gay love is a surrogate for something you are missing in life.

Kat, since you like to quote the King James, then read this verse, spoken by God to Moses......

"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them hath committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." (Leviticus 20:13, King James Version).

I love the King James, too, because it is so plain and poetic! Kath, the Bible plainly "condemns" homosexuality and lesbianism. He destroyed Sodom and Gommorah because of it! Where do you think that our term "sodomy" comes from? It comes from "SODOM," where the "Sodomites"(Gays) were boinking each other in the butts and God was so enraged that He sent down fire from Heaven and turned them into toast. Just read Genesis chapters 18 and 19 out of your trusty King James, Kat, and you will see God's attitude towards gays!

One more thing! I know that there will be those who will say, "You serve a mean and hateful God, so I want no part of him." Or, "Your God is not loving." Well, to nip all of that garbage in the bud, read this, and meditate.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." (John 3:16, 17)

"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." (II Peter 3:9)

If the gays "repent," then God will forgive them. But, they must change their "lifestyle." If they don't, then I pity them.

Have to disagree with you on that one.
I know a few people that 'bat for the other side' and on the whole they're quite well balanced,compassionate individuals (a lot better behaved than some overtly religious folk I know).
Sounds a bit like religious propaganda and/or wilfull ignorance to me.

If your opinion is correct then wouldn't 'everybody' who had a traumatic childhood be homosexual?

I know a lot of people who play well balanced and compassionate people in public who are total pychopaths in private.

The OP just asked why a prohibition against homosexuality is not in the 10 commandments, i provided an interpretation that it is.

If your opinion is correct, all people handle their personal issues in the same manner.

I don't doubt that what the homos feel is genuine love for one another. I just happen to know that in the darkness not everything is what it seems. and your behavior and refusal to accept its root cause could keep you from what you really desire.

Nobody is here to judge.

So the god of your bible only speaks to married couples. so, sex between an old man and a baby girl would be ok if neither is married?

Illicit sex is whatever is looked down on in society. The god of the bible didn't address it all.

Gay people are part of our lives. They are people we love and are connected to. They contribute to society. They just happen to feel a deeper connection to members of the same sex. They are no different or less capable than anyone else.

This is a diversion perpetrated on the masses to confuse and lead in the wrong direction...the walls are starting to crumble.

i got a u2u from a banned poster who opened up his/her bible and attempted to forward a convoluted interpretation that may or may not be what the writers of said bible had in mind.

This may be off topic, but the confusion and many different interpretations of what the bible says has caused more harm than good, imo.

my reply to him/her:

please find god outside of the bible. there is much deception going on that has been going on since the beginning of civilization.

no god in his right mind would have allowed what we as a people have created in his name. ie: israel, chosen people, manifest destiny, righteous war
