You are seriously wanting to make homosexuality a crime? I will not support such a move and I doubt that more than a tiny minority of Americans would support such a move.

I have no desire to see these United States be a theocracy. Anyone who wants to live in a theocracy can always move to Iran. After all, Ahmadinejad said a week ago that there are no homosexuals in Iran.

Returning homosexual conduct to its rightful criminal status will not make America a theocracy any more than other laws designed to regulate conduct and maintain a reasonable standard of public morality. Advocating such law does not make one a believer in a theocracy but merely one that recognizes that we'd best incorporate at least the fundamentals of God's laws into those of mankind unless we want the law to become completely void of God's intentions for us. In that case, the law would then serve Satan very nicely since, by man's evil nature, anything would be acceptable conduct.

Yes, He really did and He had written down for us so we wouldn't be able to weasle out of it.

How far do you want to go? Criminalize divorce? Criminalize forsaking the assembly of the saints? Criminalize failing to honor one's parents? How far?

And what do you propose to be the penalty for being a homosexual? Death?

We are discussing the actions of a secular government, not the church.

Yep!!

A secular government that has solidly rejected the Judeo-Christian foundation upon which it was originally founded!!!

NOT A THEOCRACY; just a government that recognized the leadership, authority, sovereignty and importance of God in the affairs of mankind!!

That is what I desire as well. On this we are in agreement. :thumbs:

Excellent post. :applause:

We should go to a reasonable standard of public morality which means homosexuality should be a criminal offense along with other disgusting sexual offenses.

By the opposite logic we would not be able to regulate just about every kind of criminal offense since one could argue that, for example, murder should not be illegal because it's based upon the word of God as recorded in the Bible.

I agree that these matters should be handled at the state level where it was originally intended but, given today's trend, it's difficult not to elevate everything to the federal level since our federal government seems to either overturn the efforts of the states or mandate something contrary to their will.

 

[KenH]

homosexuality should be a criminal offense

That shouldn't happen and, fortunately, that ain't gonna happen.

 

[Dragoon68]

That shouldn't happen and, fortunately, that ain't gonna happen.

No, Ken, it already happened. It's right there in the Bible. It's just that mankind has a difficult time accepting it.

 

[KenH]

No, Ken, it already happened.

I'm talking about as government policy in these United States from this day forward for the forseeable future.

Well sure, I'd have to agree it's not likely to happen any time soon and that's too bad because our government should be based on God's laws - it seems it once was - for the sake of estabishing and regulating a reasonable standard of public moral conduct.

 

[KenH]

Well, on that note of agreement, it's been a pleasure debating this issue with you, Dragoon68. :applause:
