Church and state are seperate in the United States. If homosexuals want to be married, that is all legislation. But for homosexuals to engage in sexual acts with one another and live like a man or a woman, that is God's territory. And it is up to them if they want to abide to God's wishes or not. But I have many friends who are homosexual, and they get me, and I get them. They're not religious people. what happens to them will all be up to Him in the end, I try to reserve my judgment towards them to myself and myself only.
Well I for one thank you. Seriously, best position you can have on the subject from your perspective.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
