I agree with you CCCP, except for the fact that Jesus built a following on being very compassionate to poor and weak people. Upper class folk didn't like him.

Wait a sec; cccp, are you saying you would be perfectly fine and not at all disappointed if one of your daughters "married" (I shudder to use that word relative to two people of the same gender.) another woman?

They are 12 and 14. Eeesh no way.

but what if they were 25 and 27? Would you be okay with either of them marrying another woman?

I don't take a lot of the Old Testament literally.

I am not well versed but was the Bible not written 50 years post Christ's death? What does it specifically say about gays?

You are referring to the New Testament.

I didn't say cannot. I said it wasn't part of the plan to my understanding.

My argument is that we need to use the golden rule and treat everyone with kindness and respect and God will judge. Love the sinner, hate the sin.

So we should love murderers and rapists? Who are we to judge? God will do so anyway. Correct? We should love the sinner....killer of Mollie Tibbets? God will judge him?

Yes. You got it.

God will judge them. Are you equating being gay to murder?

I am just listing sins man. Are some sins worse than others in the bible? So why do we have judges, prisons?

A sin is a sin. ALL are sinners. GOD will not live in or among or with sin. GOD is perfect.

But you quoted for it in your god is against homosexuality post. Dont cherry pick.

Tang didn't write the Bible and he's not GOD and he can't change the rules. Pay attention please.

GOD cannot exist with sin. Homosexuality is a sin. All of us are sinners. We must love and forgive.

You must live with and love and hire and work with homosexuals and RCBRACCO. You just can't go out and kill them.

We all have the option to reject our lifestyle and seek forgiveness. We write and talk about it. GOD will decide.
