There will always be a controversial dispute on whether gay sexual orientation is considered a "sin" or "wrong." I personally don't have a say in whether it's considered "wrong" or "right." I feel that citizens of the U.S. should do as they will. No one should be criticized for what they believe in or what they have no control over. If a boy wants to wear a dress, then that is his business and he has free will to do so. It is not our job to determine if it is a sin to the Bible. It is God's job to decide! I would like to point out that in the Bible: Matthew 7:1, it quotes, "Do not judge others, and you will not be judged." Meaning you have no say in whether gay/bi sexuality is wrong!
What would you do if your child happened to be born a different way than your, "Biblical Standards?" Would you disown him and treat him as if he weren't human OR would you be the uplifting and encouraging parent that would do anything to make your child feel as comfortable as can be in a world so mischievous?

ReplyDeleteI would like to point out that your bible also says:
ReplyDelete"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination." -Leviticus 18:22
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." -Leviticus 20:13
"Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God." -1Corinthians 6:9-10
I agree to a certain extent with what Brelin is saying when it comes to the part about letting God decide and for us not to judge one another.
ReplyDeleteI would like to point out in Raymond's response: In Leviticus 20:13 it was not talking directly about homosexuality it is talking about having non-marital sex
How exactly is it talking about non-marital sex? Its pretty clear to me its talking about a man lying with a man as he would with a woman.
DeleteIn responce to a preivous speaker the Bible is talking about pre-marital sex because if you was to read the verses before you would see that it was talking about pre-marital sex. Even Though homosexuality is an abomination to God according to the Bible it is not our job to disrespect them or to bully them but its our job to help them or to pray for them if you want to get religous.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure you're thinking of Leviticus 20:10, not 20:13.
