The sin that is taking the world by force.....

[Zaac]

To be honest, I could care less if people go do their gay thing in private. I mean, really, what is preaching to them going to do? Nothing. Not a danged thing. At all. They're never going to be any different, so you're just going to introduce anger or distress for no good reason other than to make yourself feel better. It is futile silliness. I lived next to lesbians for 15 years, to be honest they were the good neighbors, they didn't bother anybody. Why on earth anybody would feel the need to make a butt of themselves in protest of them existing is beyond me.

What I do care about though is the fact that so many of the gay crowd are about the most perverted exhibitionists on the planet. Some seem to live to throw it in your face any chance they get. It is ridiculous. Mature married hetero couples don't act like that. Otherwise, I honestly don't care, just keep it to yourself please. If we're talking about sin in general, there is way more sin going on in the hetero world so there is no need to get hung up on the gay scene alone if sin is your concern. If sin was your concern you'd be up in arms about hetero activity just as much, but nobody does that now do they.

That's just it. SIN isn't his concern. If it were, it would be addressed from a spiritual perspective of dealing with the heterosexual AND the homosexual sin.

This is once again, whether or not he wants to admit it, about politics and his fear.It's about being divisive and scaring folks that their "freedoms" are being taken away by this group so now we in this other group, out of fear and anger about our freedom, need to respond.

This is more of the same old "liberal vs conservative" stuff bandied around on here masquerading under the banner of being informative.

Some of these folks just need their daily "atta boy" pat on the back to feel good about their brand of Christianity.

If this was anything more than a talk-radio, talking point partisan politics rant, then you would see just as you mentioned, as much concern if not more about the heterosexual sin that has inundated every media outlet.

The pet sins get the topics when the forces need to be rallied.:laugh:

Wasn't the truth that the church seems to want to have our culture set morality and not the Bible though the heart of the OP?

I don't know if you just post from your phone and are too lazy but this post is incoherent.

You still have mot said if you would support a pastor/Church stating that active homosexual behavior, without any desire/regards to repenting, would be grounds to speak out against that happening!

Was trying to say that the main point of the OP to me was that some in the Church are using the culture/society to drive what our moral standards are, and not the Bible!

Don't ....

No argument there.....

It's just that I see you and him carrying on this long argument from thread to thread, and he says one thing, and you are not getting through! He is well versed in militant discourse. He loves to call people homophobes, unchristian, inhumane, insensitive, hateful, and his big word is HYPOCRITE.

I was simply observing that you are beating a dead horse, and I think you could put your time to better use! BTW - you have my ear and heart. I see nothing wrong with your arguments, but then again, to your opponent; I am one of the good old boys, the problem with today's church, and it was only time before I slapped you on the back and called you one of us. :laugh:

I wish you the best, but, in my mind, you will never get that to change its mind! :wavey:
