August 25, 201016 yr Woods, we Kool. I learn something everyday. And I learned to just not comment on things sometimes. The child is there and is loved so the bottom line for me is this child.
August 25, 201016 yr i think you have some great post and I agree with you a lot. But IMO you can not be a Christian and be gay. It says right in the Bible that homosexuality is a sin. A person IMO can get away from homosexuality and be saved, just as you can drugs, gambling, stealing. But if you continue to be gay then you are going to hell. So, sinners can't be Christians?
August 25, 201016 yr And you know this how? how do you know how the little girl will be raised to think or taught? Based on how your friends do it. Well not all are the same. I know this because I know two different children raised by two different sets of homosexual parents. The kids are straight...in their teens and happily dating members of the opposite sex. Perfectly normal and well-adjusted children. The have jobs, are in college and really happy mature kids with lots of friends.
August 25, 201016 yr I'll ask the same question to you. You're acting like these parents want to raise a big gay army to defeat all heterosexuals, starting with the men, because you disagree with their lifestyle. I choose to use real life scenarios. Heterosexual women like myself are far more likely to try to raise an Amazon army to defeat all the men.
August 25, 201016 yr Heterosexual women like myself are far more likely to try to raise an Amazon army to defeat all the men. Ooh, now that's how I want to be conquered! :banana:
August 25, 201016 yr So, sinners can't be Christians? I thought that Christendom was rife with them, but perhaps not.
August 25, 201016 yr Heterosexual women like myself are far more likely to try to raise an Amazon army to defeat all the men. (In my best Arnold Horshack voice): Ooh, ooh! Pick me, pick me!
August 25, 201016 yr If you don't believe a little girl living with lesbian parents who show their affection for each other around her every day won't influence her life and her lifestyle then you are not considering everything. I'm not sure she will grow up to be lesbian but the odds are more so that she might than if living with heterosexual parents. Will they have different beliefs and views than many others? Of course. Will it increase the odds of them being gay? :lol: Not a chance.
August 25, 201016 yr It's well within their rights to do so. I would ask if children of other "sinners" are barred as well but that's just me. I agree 1,000%. This is yet ANOTHER example of what I term cafeteria-style Christianity.
August 26, 201016 yr I have known several homosexuals over the course of my life, many of whom I am proud to call friend. Not a single one of them have ever tried to "convert" me, whatever that really means. As Christians, we are told that we are made in God's image (Book of Genesis). Having said that, I am 100% certain that homosexuals are born homosexual, and do not choose their sexuality at some later arbitrary point in their lives. Sure, there are a few exceptions to this rule, but for the most part I'm correct. So, if we are in fact made in God's image, and some are homosexual as determined at the date of conception, are these homosexuals truly doomed to Hell?? I just can't accept that as being the case. No way. Never. And.... What's the deal with so many so-called "Christians" picking and choosing which sins "they" feel are an automatic ticket to Hell? Huh? I get a bit tired of people picking certain sins which they feel strongly about and then quoting scripture to support their arguments whether it's homosexuality, alcohol consumption, coveting, mowing your yard on a Sunday, etc. Unless you are Jesus (and you aren't), don't pick and choose "sins" using your cafeteria-style Christian beliefs to point out others perceived shortcomings. Let's face it. We are all sinners. None of us are worthy enough or have the right to condemn others' sins (real or imagined). I mean, think about it. Does a fat heterosexual condemning a thin homosexual have a better chance at eternity? If I wanted to (and I definitely don't), I could find scriptures in the Bible related to the sin of gluttony. It's dinner-time. Gotta go.
