I can't stand when people "threaten" things with Hell. It should simply be that people want to do the right thing because they desire to be moral people, not just hanging punishment over their heads. As you know, I do believe Hell is a real place, but I do not think it needs to be used that way!
The sinner that put that sign up is immoral, they are misusing words to intentionally threaten and hurt people!
Fucking hilarious. You know, I know a group of people who are moral just because they want to be, and not for fear of punishment. They're called atheists... and they think you suck.
Stealing doesn't hurt people, but mean signs do? Get bent with your stupidity. Seriously.
I thought you were done. I knew you couldn't resist. Lol.
You obviously missed the point I was trying to make about stealing, but I guess your retort made you feel better. I don't mind if people here don't like me. The anonymity of the internet gives some people the gull to say all kinds of things they wouldn't say in real life.
If you think you have the ability to throw down and you live in the united states why don't you meet with me? You can even come armed with pepper spray if you're afraid, but I doubt, while looking into my eyes any of you can act the way you are right now.
Care to meet me aleialoura? Don't be afraid....

Typical. Ad hominem. Nice job.
Yes it is abnormal. It is a far cry from normal sexual behaviors of the vast majority of people and animals.
Disease may be too harsh a word, but I say it because cancer is an abnormality, sickle-cell is an abnormality, schizophrenia is an abnormality. All these are called diseases. I throw homosexuality in that lot.
Please try again.
Actually I read a book while I was living overseas and the writer was a Christian who struggled with homosexuality, but refused to act on it because he was devoted to serving God. He often said it was a disease within him, thirsting, desiring to be fulfilled, but he would not allow his body to control his mind, his actions.
I think disease is a good comparison in that sense, but yes, a harsh word.
"And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Hebrews 11:6
