We're stuck in the Holy Bible, and we make no apologies for that.

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

watching any kind of porn besides girl-on-girl. it conditions them to enjoy having another man's tallywacker in their sight, and it's only a short step to getting bi-curious.

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

This is the most insensitive thing I have seen in so long.

You are all kidding, right? Please tell me that you don't actually believe in what you have written. If so, I am scared for where you are all taking Christianity.

You have made this religion one of hatred and exclusivity.

Where is this literalist mindset coming from? One is meant to read the bible for message and contextual truth, not word for word literal meaning.

Damn it.

Can you back that up with Scripture?

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

So why isn't girl-on-girl considered gay?
Is only man with man considered gay?

I support all sexuality choices. And you should too, if you consider yourself a child of God.

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

Ah, I see your second post is almost as nice as your first one.

Please tell me that you don't actually believe in what you have written. If so, I am scared for where you are all taking Christianity.

You are scared of the Holy Bible? Why? It is the word of God you know. Those pages you catholics usually skip are not that bad you know.

You have made this religion one of hatred

It's about True Cristian love here. We will try to save everyone's soul.

and exclusivity.

Everyone can become a True Christian. They just have to do a few things. Read the Holy Bible, live by it and pray to our Savior Jesus Christ.

Where is this literalist mindset coming from? One is meant to read the bible for message and contextual truth, not word for word literal meaning.

So you thin you know better than God? Don't you think you should give God a little bit more credit?

Damn it.

Exodus 20:7 "Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain."

Is that one of the parts you catholics skip?

If you're going to quote me, quote the whole thing.
This is exactly what I'm talking about. The people in this forum are literalists who quote things out of context in order to meet their own needs when debating mindless facts that mean nothing. Religion is not about rules and regulations. It is about tradition and acceptance and love.
This is where conflict comes from, when someone feels they have a monopoly on truth.

I can find Scripture to say you're wrong; can you find anything to say you're right?

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

Please don't promote your bisexuality here. This is a family forum.

And you should too, if you consider yourself a child of God.

No thank you. We prefer to follow the Holy Bible instead of going to hell.

CAN YOU FIND PROOF THAT SAYS SOMEONE WILL GO TO HELL IF THEY LOVE SOMEONE OTHER THAN AN OPPOSITE SEX PARTNER?

NO. You cannot prove religion.
I am a Catholic, and though they have changed my name (which means my first amendment has been violated) on this forum, I am proud to be a Catholic.

We do not skip passages, we take them in context, not out of context like you Baptists.

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

So far I have quoted almost all parts of all your postings and responded to all of them.

when debating mindless facts that mean nothing

You consider the Bible to be "mindless facts that mean nothing", we consider it to be the Word of God.

Religion is not about rules and regulations. It is about tradition and acceptance and love.

Then why did God give us a Bible? To ignore it? Wouldn't that be silly?

This is where conflict comes from, when someone feels they have a monopoly on truth.

Ehm, God HAS a monopoly on the truth. He created EVERYTHING he knows EVERYTHING. I am starting to think you are not a catholic but an atheist.

Hmm. What do you take this verse to mean then?

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

[Cranky Old Man]

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

NO. You cannot prove religion.

We disagree. We think creation proves the existence of God. We think the Holy Bible proves the existence of God. Only God could have made a book that is so perfect, so complete, so consistent and so true. We humans can only be humble in admiring the LORD.

I am proud to be a Catholic.

I am proud to be a True Christian.

We do not skip passages, we take them in context, not out of context like you Baptists.

Can you please give me an example of a Bible verse we take out of context?

Re: Things that cause homosexuality:

Religion is not about rules and regulations. It is about tradition and acceptance and love.

Do you have scripture to back that up or are you just citing your opinion? Please do not bother telling us what you think we should do on our forum, thank you very much.

This is where conflict comes from, when someone feels they have a monopoly on truth.

And yet, you are doing exactly that...... irony.
