you're calling me a liar for suggesting that i invited my father to church. is that so hard to believe that i would invite my father to church that you're calling me a liar? you must think very low of me to judge me like that. next you'll suggest to me that i will not enter the kingdom of god because i am a liar and liars don't enter into the kindgom of god. simply because i said that i invited my father to one church and not another. my father was married by a church which performs gay marriages. you're just mad that i invited him to a church in the first place.

Again. Where is the benevolence here?



Are you serious? Homosexuals are persecuted by Christians all the time. Probably the most ignorant post I've read all day



Also doesn't mean Jesus condemned homosexual behaviour either.

Jesus is God and the word of God condemns homosexuality.....we have been here before...:)

They want their cake and eat it so it seems.
They don't believe in God odn't want to be saved, yet they want to go to church, I think I know why that is, they are trying to force their lifestyle on Christianity, I would like to know why they don't try to force themselves on Islam ????

i asked the pastor if there was anyone who was not allowed to attend sunday services, without making a reference to my father or homosexuals. he answered that openly gay couples are restricted from sunday attendance. i then responded that my father and his marriage partner are an openly gay couple, to his surprise. he then reinforced his original stance that they were restricted from attending sunday services. i did not afterward mention any of this to my father, insofar as i knew that it would upset him.

you did ask your father..

i asked him to go to other churches. correct.

your father wouldn't want to got to church...

he doesn't want to go to church, because he feels unwelcome at churches. he believes that most churches are homophobic. he's told me 'no' when i've asked him to go to other churches with me over the years.

your father would want to go to church...

A common misconception.

Since it's a choice, why don't you go and prove it by kissing a guy on the lips, with tongue?

Don't think you can do it? Find the idea sexually unpleasant? That's because you're not gay. Why can't you 'choose to be gay' for ten minutes? This is essentially what you are asking from gay people: go against your natural self and be something you are not.

Because you don't choose your sexuality any more than you choose your skin tone, hair and eye colour or foot size.

You may as well go up to someone and say "Stop being brown haired!".

Actually, biology differs.

most gays are born with their brain composition equal to that of their opposite sex.

In other words, they were BORN to be gay.

no because you are boring me actually but no also because he wants to be gay, he does not want to be saved, why don't you give him the gospel or phone the authorities again and ask them to give him the gospel...:)

your father dosen't want to hear the gospel because he knows what the bible says about homosexuality , but keep trying because he needs to hear the truth .

Same document says that homosexuality is NOT reversible even with psychological treatment.

So even your article says it´s not a choice :shrug:
