    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    (ROS777;6137) It's a sin.The problem for society is when homosexuals recruit and lead others to sin.Recruiting children, teenagers and those down on their luck and with political correctness falsely saying it is okay.Jesus said that offenses would come but woe to those they would come by. It...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    I know of a few homosexuals and their early life and the abuse from adults did infulence their sexual lives.This is pedophelia and not homosexuality; it is illegal and immoral in many ways. I was referring to adults. No child should be forced into any sexual relationship with an adult, whether...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    It is not, however, in many of the Islamic copies out there as well as other copies in our own language. If you have any answer to this, by all means share it but even the so-called "experts" can't really explain why. I cannot either; but if there is one thing to take away from it, convictions...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    I hear this one all the time. Are you aware that the clause that you quoted only shows up in a couple of the copies?It is in the original copy, signed by Adams. This quote demonstrates that our founding fathers wanted a free society for all. "Wall of separation" was actually originally in a...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    Of course it has, although, it has been mainly restricted to southern states. The abolishing of slavery was opposed by many christian groups, so was women's rights, and lastly, so was equal rights for minorities. Again, I've never mentioned marriage. That is a religious institution. I am...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    (ROS777;6248) 1. A confused child, coming from an abusive home, befriended by a homosexual teacher, boy/girl scout leader, pastor, neighbor or school teacher can and does lead the child in a homosexual lifestyle.A runaway teenager living on the street gets hit on by homosexual males/females and...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    I'm going to give you an example why I, personally, think that homosexual civil union should be allowed (note: this is not the same as marriage, it has nothing to do with the church). A man is severely injured in an automobile accident and ends up brain dead and on ventilatory support. He has...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    Swampfox,You miss my point. By pointing out concentration camps I was responding ros777's statement about the majority. This government was not conceived to protect the rights of the majority, it was concieved to protect the rights of the minority. It is not our job to tell others how to...

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    Mathew 5:44But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;This one is probably my favorite.

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    How is allowing other citizens to live their lives freely discriminating? Christianity says that homosexuality is a sin but not all religions do. The majority in the 1700's were for slavery, the majority in the 1800's were against women's rights, the majority in the early and mid 1900's was...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    (SwampFox;6205) Problem is, such things as marriage are not a natural born right. Marriage is a privilege from the state and not a natural born right. That is true, marriage is a privilege from the state. Civil union can also be a privilege from the state that gives some legal rights onto any...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    The same way that blacks were descriminated against pre-seventies, ie not allowed in certain establishments, not being served, forced separation.

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    Then I will give you another example of why I do not think the bible should be taken literallyDeuteronomy13:6 If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and...

    What should be the Christian's Response to the Homosexual?

    Sin or not it is their choice and no one should discriminate against another individual regardless of race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation, especially in a free society.

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    (SwampFox;5961) I could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure I am correct in saying that abiogenesis has yet to be proven. There's enough speculation to around in this area, but no real consensus exists. While there is still speculation, the framework is definitely there. It centers mostly around...

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    When I read Peter 2, it seems to me it is talking about the flood and then a world after judgement and not a pre-adam world."What we refer to when you start talking about evolution is the specific theory of evolution as an origin and an unintelligent one at that."I'm not quite sure what this is...

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    Kriss,I am sorry, but I cannot find, in Peter 2, where it talks about three world ages. Could you give me a little more detail? Their is a lot of scientific proof of evolution and natural selection. I am in medicine and have taken many years of biology, anatomy, physiology, and microbiology...

    Should we interpret the Bible literally?

    There are too many errors in Genesis. I cannot believe in creationism, there is too much biological and microbiological proof of evolution and natural selection.
