Christianity - the real target of hate in gay issue

[shuamort]

Oh sorry . . . it is called a sarcastic remark . . . . since I don't need to be spoon fed myself, I presume no one else does . . . . my mistake . . .

Verses are unrelated to homosexuality:

The complete passage describes how the ex-Christians engaged in orgiastic, presumably heterosexual sexual activities. This type of behavior was common among Pagan fertility religions in Rome during Paul's time. Paul writes that, later, God "gave them over" to something new: homosexual behavior. This implies that throughout their lifetime they had had a heterosexual orientation and had engaged only in heterosexual sex. God influenced them so that they engaged in homosexual sex. This was, for them, an unnatural activity. They were criticized because they were engaged in sexual activity which was unnatural for them. For a person with a heterosexual orientation, homosexual behavior is "shameful," "unnatural," "indecent," and a "perversion." The passage in Romans is not a condemnation of homosexual behavior. Rather, it disapproves of sexual behavior that is against a person's basic nature (i.e. homosexual behaviors by people whose orientation is heterosexual). Presumably this would condemn heterosexual behavior by gays and lesbians -- activity which is equally against their nature.

For the vast majority of adults, those who are heterosexual, it is indecent for them to engage in homosexual activities. For the small minority of humans who are homosexual, it would be indecent for them to engage in heterosexual activities. As C. Ann Shepherd writes: "When the scripture is understood correctly, it seems to imply that it would be unnatural for heterosexuals to live as homosexuals, and for homosexuals to live as heterosexuals."

And of course pagans were not invented until after the dark ages . . .. . hahahahahaha

Maybe I should change it to We let christianity rule the majority of the western civilization and we know this time as the dark ages for a reason .

at least when pagans had their say culture didn't stagnate.. yes it was more primitive but we accredit most wonders of the world to this era. When christians ruled we had the caste system and enforced ignorance.

Phew! Am I glad you disagree with me . . . . I would hate to have a natural man, like yourself, start agreeing with me on the meaning of Scripture . . . .
