William Cohen calls for gays in military.

==How am I wrong?

 

Exhibit "A"

Good cover, maybe. The big deal is that there is a good deal of self-loathing in suppressed homosexuals, which often erupts in violence. Guys who are truly heterosexual are much less likely to attack homosexuals.

 

What on earth are you talking about? What issues? where on earth did I claim that homosexual acts are proper? In fact when did I say anything about homosexuality at all? All I did was ask for clarification on what "godly anger" constitutes. I was asking if you meant murdering a homosexual who comes on to you, as you have said in previous posts? I for one do not think that is godly anger, and before I jumped to a conclusion I figured it would be better to ask. Excuse me for trying to be polite.

 

Is ‘bashing’ sub-Christian?

EVANSTON, Ill. (BP)--Recently, my Apologetics in Contemporary Ministry class was turning through the premier issue of Salvo, published by the folks at Touchstone. Salvo is a hard-hitting publication, one designed to discomfit sub-Christian and anti-Christian ideologies arrayed against “the faith once for all delivered to the saints.”

The magazine featured some carefully crafted mock advertisements. One invited people to the “Church of Darwin.” Another parodied PETA with a pitch for PETI (“People for the Ethical Treatment of Insects”). Most of these ads performed the classic “reduction to absurdity,” drawing out the embarrassing implications of an opponents’ stance –- “If he had his way, look what sort of craziness he’d get us into!”

In the course of our discussion, a student said he would be reluctant to pass the magazine on to a non-believer since some of the material could be seen as “bashing,” so I asked whether “bashing” (as in “gay-bashing” and “Bush-bashing”) was a bad thing, per se. What was bashing anyway?

huh? I already pointed out I didn't say one iota about homosexuality one way or another. I hardly call that defending anything. I am not trying to make you look suspect, I was just asking for clarification. I get it you are talking about the laws of God, however, that does not DEFINE godly anger. Is murder godly anger? Is assault godly anger? Is putting a person in their place by explaining why homosexuality is wrong godly anger? What is it exactly? :BangHead:

 

==I will ask the question again...how am I wrong?

 

No, my friend, you seem confused. I know what the thread is about, but I just was asking for clarification of YOUR POST. I do not think the homosexual lifestyle should be forced on anyone, including our soldiers. However, I hardly think the "don't ask, don't tell" policy is forcing the lifestyle on others, nor do I think the military acknowledging the fact there are ALREADY gay people in the military is going to force a lifestyle on our soldiers. What one does in their bedroom with another consenting adult is their business, and it is between them and God. Does this mean I do not think homosexuality is not a sin? NO, it is, but is no greater than any other sin. In that same manner I do not think it is godly to kill homosexuals for their sins. Two wrongs never make a right.

 

==I am not defending homosexuality. Maybe you are not reading my replies?

I said:
"Since our military contains many fornicators, adulterers, drunks, and porn addicts, among other things, why pick on the homosexuals? Honestly folks if we are going to promote kicking gays out of the military we must also promote kicking out the other immoral people."

Does that sound like I am defending homosexuals? Or maybe you are also accusing me of defending fornicators, adulterers, drunks, and porn addicts?

So, here, you are wrong.

Now,


So, yet again, I ask you the "same" question...how am I wrong?

 

The condoning of killing of homosexuals on any christian board is tragic.

 

My thoughts exactly!

 

==Ok, I think we are having a breakdown of communication here. Let me, once again, ask this question...how am I wrong?

 

Who has defended homosexuality in this discussion, Wayne?
