I think it is. If I felt it wasn't a choice then I would not consider it a sin. It all comes down to how you view the Bible. If you believe that the Bible is God's word then you probably believe homosexuality is a choice and a sin. If you believe the Bible is a flawed cultural book than you do not believe it is a choice or a sin. No one argues what the Bible says about homosexuality. The arguement is more about whether or not the Bible is correct.

 

I would agree with you that ACTING on homosexual urges is a choice but I would think most homosexuals didn't choose to be attracted to their own sex rather than the opposite sex the same way I didn't chose to be attracted to females and not males, it is just who I am.

Saying that, I do think under extreme circumstances someone can be rewired. I base this on two therapists I knew who often treated victims of rape and molestation. They mentioned young girls who are raped/molested seem to become lesbians at a much, much higher rate than average. I sometimes wonder if that torment may have affected them to a point that a relationship with a man is just too terrifying to enter into so they subconsciously are attracted to women.

Hide yo kids, "The Gay" has gone airborne.

Of course its just who you are, because God made man to be with a woman and for a woman to be with a man. Therefore homosexuality is a choice, God did not create humans to live this way. The Bible clearly states that homosexuality is a sin and those who live in this sin will be judged for their actions by the Lord our God. But hear this, this sin is no greater than any other sin, everybody will be judged for their sinful actions as well. Does this mean we hate Homosexual people? Absolutely not! Hate is a sin in itself and we have no right to judge. Sin is sin no matter what it is, it is all equal. Jesus said That he will give us a new command and that is to "love one another just as i have loved you," (John 13:34) and to treat others as you would want to be treated.

So you've chosen to like women. You weren't just naturally attracted to them? Because if we say being homosexual is a choice, then we also have to say being hetrosexual is a choice, unless we're lying to ourselves.

Not true at all. Heterosexuality is natural. Homosexuality is unnatural, in my opinion.

 

I see just as much anger from the pro-gay (not meant to be derogatory) crowd when they clash with the conservative crowd as I do the other way around. Both groups get too angry with each other. Mistakes are made on both sides.

If ones a choice, the other has to be as well. Otherwise, you're (general you're, not you specifically) being hypocritical.

I just think that is incorrect.

 

To me its like you're saying that if I choose to dye my hair from red to blonde and you choose to keep your hair the natural red, then you chose to have natural red hair.

 

I am a redhead, its what I am. Until I chose to become a blonde. I can reverse that decision if I wish (although its a lot easier than choosing to go back to heterosexuality). I may think that I truly was a blonde born into a redhead's body. But I still chose to become blonde.

Old Testament God or New Testament God? :bag:

Did I read correctly? We're comparing loving a person of the same sex with dealing drugs?

Don't forget, y'all. God makes no mistakes. He definitely had a reason for making Jeffrey Dahmer the way he was. Just like he makes queers go through a life of hell denying what they are.

This actually had the potential to be a reasonably intelligent discussion where ideas on the subject could be shared without sarcasm.

God created us perfect in every way. Eve ruined it. :facepalm: So you can thank her for that, lol.

God stopped creating on the six day.
