See this is my problem. I want you to have your life the way you want it. I want you to be happy. I would not disparage you or your spouse at all. This however does not mean I support a law condoning it.
It's that simple.
Meh, I can be happy knowing that I'm free to be a kinder, more compassionate indivdual than you. I don't have to live with a faith that requires me to stand in the way of other people's happiness and to condemn their behavior for no real rational reason. I'm just done with dealing with closed minded people.
Ahh yea, you come of so kind and compassionate.
Like I said you don't understand the difference between "bound and "follow." Pretty simple. Following the law voluntarily has nothing to do with being "bound" by it as the people were.
Why don't you be honest and stop trying to twist everything I or the Bible says to suit your immoral needs?
And I just saw your "to to " response. You can't even admit to a grammatical error! pathetic.
Have a good life.

"According to Mosaic law, it was a sin to touch a leper. Jesus touched a leper. You claim that Jesus always followed Mosaic law. Instafail."
"Since when is God bound by the Mosaic law? Or any other law for that matter? The Bible does not say he is?"
Exactly! I can't be myself when it comes to people like you and so there is no sense in it. I value new ideas too much to waste time with people who are obsessed with the old ones. I think I'll give up this forum for awhile. Go find a new boyfriend. Maybe do some more volunteer work.
I owe you for reminding me of who I do not want to be.
I just can't get over how dishonest this is, and then to have you tell me to start being honest..
Have no more interest in what you have to say. Have a good one.

and you wonder why people react to you the way they do.
Wow! What a great assumption based on one sentence from a huge set of posts. :roll:
No, it was based upon reading many postings.
I simply highlighted your reference to Panache's "immoral needs" due to the egregiousness of the insult and the way it illustrated my point. You have made many references to people's so-called intolerance of Christianity yet here you are wagging your finger in somebody's face like that.
I think what you are really complaining about is that what you are dishing out, you are also receiving.
Since both Gardener and Blackdog don't think homosexuality is wrong, then why do they argue?
He thinks it is not immoral, I think it is. I do not however consider gay people any less than myself as I am also a sinner in immoral ways. I have committed fornication etc. How this affects him and others on some level is beyond me. It's as if my thoughts reach out and touch them, lol.
I agree it is immoral. However, it is foolish to think them lower than yourself; we're all sinners. That does not and cannot erase the fact that homosexuality is a sin and that it must be preached against. Not of hate, but of love. I would defend a homosexual from harm with my life seeing as we're both human; I don't hate the person. I hate the sin. Those who call us hateful bigots are seemingly unable to discern the difference. Fornication, to me, is also immoral. It is sex out of wedlock. You may do so and I won't stop you unless I can legally and passively; it is wrong in the Bible and, well, that is my stance.
That is exactly what I said?

I am agreeing with you there. They are equal to us in terms of general human respect, but the sin, I believe, must still be preached against lest that sin grow and pervade and worsen. You knpw as well as I that the term "normality" is continually being pushed further and further. Soon, within 200 years roughly, even incest will get it's time to shine. See YouTube. There are already small groups and organizations supporting incest that are growing.
Yea I have already had one guy on this forum say incest was OK. It's not.
I think homosexuality, fornication, and even lust is wrong.
Wow, really? Given time and the collection of like minds, nothing is impossible.
