Quote:What's wrong with you? Don't you want to live forever? Sacrificing your immortality for a good time in this life only.That you can do, but it is not a gay only thing. it is a sin thing. and all sin save one is forgivable. All one need do is seek forgiveness for said sin. But that's the real problem isn't it? No one wants to admit that sin is a problem or their problem is sin therefore they never seek to atone for it.
Quote:Guys, isn't it blatantly obvious that people are who nature made them to be. No silly books can change that.The bible even tells us this through paul in romans 8. in that we are slaves to sin and will never stop serving that master. Our only hope is to repent of this service so that when this body pays the final price for sin we maybe resurrected in Christ free from sin. If we love sin then this sin is carried on which we will be judged of and sentenced to the second death.
Quote:People subscribe to these books because they happen to coincide with what they are comfortable with.What are you talking about? it is far easier to poke someone in "hole or another", when it strikes your fancy than it is to live against one's nature, isn't that your argument? Or do you seriously believe God lovers hate sex???
Quote:This of course includes all the bigoted attitudes which people have. It is so convenient to hide your prejudices behind the veils of religion.
Quote:If people truly believed that there is a creator who knows all and will judge us one day, their natural survival instincts should at least kick in to protect them from themselves. This does not happen because nature does not recognise or acknowledge any silly made made books... Simples!Ah, Now I see where you get the name...
Didn't you start out saying

???
Wouldn't this be the instinct to 'protect yourself' that you just said doesn't happen?
