Herbrews 13:4 says absolutely nothing of homosexuality, Drich. You have to first consider homosexuality impure to be able to take that meaning away from it. Tell me where the Bible says it is impure.

'Sin' a concept invented by very religious men. It's total bollocks.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Nobody (as far as I know) is advocating that any religious institution perform ceremonies for marriages that are contrary to their doctrines. Rather, it is about legal recognition of such marriages.

Perhaps you should watch the news. In states where homosexual marriages are taking place churches who open their doors for community events (like non member marriages) are being sued to allow homosexual marriages to take place in their buildings. Citing discrimination.

This is not say religions are being forced to marry gays it is saying that if a church opens it's doors for non church activities like bingo or non member marriages they will also be made to allow for non member gay marriages as well.

All sexual activity outside the confines of the covenant of marriage are considered "impure." See Every single verse I left in my first response to you.

"American Jurisprudence", you can sue anyone for anything. Call me when a court rules in their favor.

"You had bingo on thursday and so I decree that you must now marry teh gayz" :gavel slams:

I think not.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Or are you saying homosexual activity does not involve sex?

Then please take the time to explain you take on the "God of the bible."

So, it makes premarital sex a sin. If you let gay people get married, which your quotes say nothing against, that would not be a problem.

Again, show me where it says homosexuality is a sin. Let's not assume every homosexual is having premarital sex so you can argue with that verse. Specifically, where does it say it? And . . . where does it say that men can't marry men and women can't marry women?

I already have. The god who is silent on this issue. I prefer indifference to intolerance. Sure, it's a choice between shit and a shit sandwich..but this is the judeo-christian god we're talking about, so I'll take it.

Adding the "activity" for good measure, eh? For shame. Being homosexual does not mean you are having sex. Next dodge.
