Actually it's the opposite. Murder is prohibited (maybe you're familiar with the sixth commandment?); lesbian sex is not.

It's not my definition. It's simply not prohibited. My definition of prohibition would be that somewhere in the Bible it's prohibited. Unlike murder, it isn't. See the difference?

we get the point, unless god says no, you go! as you seems to interpret what you read and hear as you wish; I rather enjoy the use of the mind but to misrepresent, is actually against the biblical commandments.

After reading through your posts it appears if someone was either correct or incorrect, the 'truth' of the matter is, it's all about you! So only you know when you fibbing because any one can see the stripes on your back.

Not my life, run it how you wish. Reality shares that adverse contributions to existence eventually go extinct. and no religion or country ammendment is going to fix that..... nature runs the show, darling!

Who is "we"? I don't think that is the point at all. The original post asks why does God hate homosexuality. So naturally the debaters will use the words of the Bible to support a position as to whether or not God hates homosexuality. In this case, the point is that God does not seem to hate lesbians because the Bible doesn't specifically prohibit a lesbian relationship.

However, I seem to get your point. Regardless of God's position, you hate homosexuality. You don't need God's word. Your "expertise" of the natural world completely justifies your hatred and intolerance for homosexuality. Got it.

Apparently you cannot read; play as you will but please it is a blatant lie to ever sell, preach or convey the same sex relations is normal.

Dogs kill cats.... can I use the model since it is in nature, too!

Lions kill cubs just to bring the lioness into heat; is this where pedophiles came from?

And we all know homosexuals love the religious networks as the catholic sect is still righting checks for all them youngsters who were taken advantage of by folk like you who think it is OK to convey same sex as normal.

This is a religious site talking about the development of people, not to find groups within a theological gang to continually rehash what is plain in all of existence.

It is almost as if this site is breading self serving monsters. People like you who simply will not face facts just to keep a cause alive because no one can do a damn thing about it.

Fine! I am not your judge...... the majority, the total.........'we the people' are who set the tone of existence. And if what you preach is good it will live, if not, remember you dig your own hole......... lie in it!

Okay. Well you may want to say "I" next time instead of "we". I also read Auto's posts and I don't agree with your position/response to them.

Bishadi, I am not a religious person either. But when a poster specifically asks for a religious perspective on homosexuals, people will use the Bible to form their argument. That's all I was trying to say.

I don't agree with anything else you said (what I could understand of it) but I will refrain from responding since we are getting off subject....

Apparently you can. You seem to be continually lying to yourself.

Hooray! You understand! The Bible is man-made, and therefore anything in it is only there to further the agenda of the writers.

Quote:

Well, nature has killing, homosexuality, stealing, raping, etc. I guess that speaks for God, huh?

Quote:

No, actually the opposite is the blatant lie. They are perfectly normal. And it seems to me that you're the one misunderstanding others' posts, so I wouldn't accuse others of not being able to read.

No, the sites that are all one denomination or religion do a lot more of the breeding of self-serving monsters. Here you get a nice mixture of people to keep that from happening.

Nature does have all of that stuff, you're right. So, why does God create all of that stuff and then expect "nature" to be "unnatural"? That's like painting something blue, and then saying "I don't want that to be blue.", and then expecting the thing to change to red.

I do love how you connect the allowance of homosexuality and the molestation of altar boys. Maybe you missed the point. Homosexuality is OK, sexually molesting anyone including kids is bad. The church is more to blame than those of us lobbying for homosexuality. It's classic repression. These priests are extremely repressed, and crack under the pressure. It's precisely because they are told not to have sex, and that homosexuality is bad that they end up molesting these kids. If it was OK for them to be who they are naturally, the molestation rate among them would drop to nearly nothing. Essentially, if we had our way, there would be less molestaton of children.
