Is it wrong to advocate homosexuality as a sin?

"I was told that..." by whom? I know a man who has been convinced by a semi-popular conspiracy theorist that many of our leaders are actually reptilian aliens. No, I'm not kidding. Whoever told you this information is operating at approximately the same level of sanity.

But don't believe me, either. Do your own research.

Furthermore, because of their influential status, many or their employees and members become gay to get promotion and offers

No. Doesn't work that way. People don't "become gay" in order to gain advantages. Were it that easy, I'd currently be set up in housekeeping with a nice lawyer who had a thing for me.

Then don't bring it up, as doing so has only hurt your ability to effectively communicate your point.

but i decide to mention it as you talk about San Francisco state.

As Autodidact has already informed you: Not a state. California is a state. San Francisco is a city in California.

And what's really funny is the thousands of gay people who have pretended to be straight over the centuries, for the precise reason HoI mentions, but that doesn't seem to bother him.

Autodidact, have you no sympathy for my closeted straight brothers and sisters?

Exactly. So why did you bring up rape in a discussion of homosexuality? Since rapists come in all sexualities, it was completely irrelevant to a discussion of the morality of homosexuality.

I brought it up in response to a thread that was posted and because it is homosexuality we are discussing here, isn't it?

If you think homosexuality is a sin, I guarantee you that the problem is with you, not homosexuals - period.

Sorry, but i never mentioned anything about sin -that was a long time ago. However, if you want my view about this forum topic's question the answer is NO and that is from a religious and non-religious view point. The bible doesn't support homosexuality neither do i accept it as a normal person apart from religion.

Thank you for the correction about San Francisco, i appreciate it. The point i mentioned stands though, you may not accept it but it does happen. Did you say people don't become gay? some do.

I don't understand how anyone can make an intelligent argument against homosexuality. What people do in the privacy of their own homes - so long as it doesn't hurt anyone - is nobody else's business.

If you are not personally gay, that's good for you. But I don't see why others being gay would be such a problem for you. I guess anything can be rationalized in the mind of a bigot.

But why did you think rape was relevant to the discussion? You're the one who raised the issue, so you must have thought it significant.

My point, rather simple, is that homosexual rape is no more an argument against homosexuality than heterosexual rape is an argument against heterosexuality.

If I conducted a poll, I wonder how many people would find Pat Robertson, John Hagee, Fred Phelps and James Dobson ickier than Leonard Bernstein, Billy Zane, Alexander Godunov and Ellen Degeneres?
