There is a gay gene, it’s called skinny jeans.

I think its wrong. Even for adults. I don't believe that mutilation is a proper course for a mental illness. Psycho babblers don't want to admit they are almost witch doctors. I don't think pretending some ones delusions are real benefits them. There are people who suffer from delusions and I don't believe its a choice. I also don't think every child who wish's to be a different sex will retain that desire.

Lol

All sin is forgivable. Christ said repent and change from your evil ways.

I see quotes from Roman's ch 1 speaking of things in regards to a reprobate mind.

The subject is obout openly gay.

Roman's 1; 29 also speaks of other sins that are referring to a reprobate mind. One of those words is debate in the kjv, in other versions I believe it is translated as strife. In the kjv this word debate sets rights between murder and deceit.
Roman's 1;32 says ( who knowing the judgment of God, That they wich commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same,but have pleasure in them that do them.

So I have a question to my T Man friends. If we debate or have strife over such things aren't we guilty of the same?

The very next chapter and verse is Roman's 2;1 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. Vs2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them that commit such things.

So isn't the judgment of sin wich we are all guilty of for God ?

Aren't we as Christians to live in the spirit not in the flesh?

Gallatins 5: 22- 23 But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness faith, vs 23 Meakness, temperance: against such there is no law.

I agree and think that's what Amy Grant was saying. That not to discount the LGBT, etc group, as there was hope for them based on what Jesus said.

To the person who said Jesus never condemned these people, He condemned all sin, not just this particular sin. But, He did promote repentance and turning from your sin no matter what the sin was.

I see you are in fine form again today Posco!

I know a few gay people. They are decent, hardworking and trustworthy friends. That's my experience, but this isn't exactly San Francisco either.

Not a recruitment tool, it is what is meant to be. Nothing more, nothing less. Is normality forbid also???

Couldn't help myself.

Did this thread somehow equate bullying of someone who has zero control over their situation to pointing out someone’s destructive behavior?

I think people are trying to equate a mental illness with a sin.

Is alcoholism a mental illness?

Stealing?

Cheating on your spouse?

I think some people are predisposed to these and are more difficult to resist than other folks but they are choices regardless.

It was bronze age not long out of caves people that decided being homosexual merited a death sentence. That fact ought to be kept in mind.

It ain't limited to San Francisco!

Back during the time of all the outrage over the killing of Matthew Shepard, a 13 year old boy, Jesse Dirkhising, was bound,tortured,and raped to DEATH in Arkansas by a loving gay couple.
It got almost ZERO coverage.

Yeah, they just want to be able to get married.....

EXACTLY and we know that schools will try to keep it from the Parents!!! Talk about BULLYING!!!
