thanks for that, and jesus NEVER spoke of homosexuality
there is not one word recorded of him saying against, if it is that big a deal youd think he would of said something or someone would have wrote about it from his words

noone can convert anyone to being gay, its so ridiculous

Sorry to burst your bubble, but all of my answers come straight out of the Bible - if *you* need more proof than that, then I can't help you.
I am guessing you haven't even read the Bible - so how do you know what it even says, much less if you don't want to "believe" in it - or are you simply going on what others have "told" you about it?

So if the topic stays closer to the whys and not the whos - it might go smoother.

And if that is the case, then Christians who castigate, "hate" and generally want to reign on other people's parades are in for something of a shock when they have the one on one with the big guy. At very least they're going to get the "that was my job, not yours" rebuke, and depending on how un-christ like (turn the other cheek, let he who is without sin, love your fellow man, forgiveness.. etc) they've been it could get a whole lot worse.

I mean, I may be wrong, but non-acceptance isn't Christian, is it?
It is gods place to judge and no-one elses - isn't it?
I take it that you subscribe to that group that has twisted the story of Sodom and Gomorrah to mean something other than sexual immorality?

I understand your God is a homophobic pervert that watches people having sex .. but what do you care ?

I hope you all burn in imaginary hell.

Sad thing is, that little moral goes right over your head, doesn't it. Think about what Jesus could have been implying, in a broader sense. Then look back at your posts and see how many stones you've thrown in judgment.

The Bible says homosexuality is a sin, and YOU guys are the ones identifying yourselves as homosexuals, NOT ME, so I'd say you've pretty much judged yourself.
