I see you continue with the same problem, if you even read what I post you read into it what you want to argue not what I've stated. If you had taken the time to correctly read what I posted you would have seen that I stated the scriptures do not condemn homosexuality, it condemns the actions taken. These discussions could go better if you would read what I say and not what you want me to say.

Your misconceptions about what I do and don't understand aside, you agree that the Bible does not condemn homosexuality, but just the act itself. Firstly, where's the harm in gays getting married? I mean, in your eyes, as long as they're celibate, they should be able to love each other and garner the same rights that heterosexual people that love each other and enter into a legal contract with the government do.

Secondly, where in the Bible does it state that Homosexuality is unnatural? Are you just referring to the act itself being unnatural? The Bible states that it's an abomination, but not unnatural (no, the antonym of abomination is not "natural"). If you get this viewpoint from a secular understanding, where and when did you learn that homosexual acts are unnatural? Would this also make heterosexual oral pleasure an abomination? What about masturbation? Wet dreams?

All these things occur in nature, which makes them essentially natural. Your argument falls completely flat from a secular and a biblical standpoint. Let's hear the ad hoc rebuttal...c'mon, we're waiting!
