Sure it is. You asked if I would deny the scenario as his work, which I would do so due to my skepticism and the fallibility of the human brain. Then you said that god would rightfully ignore me for denying that as his work. I just skipped a step and asked you if it was true that god would ignore me for my skepticism and acknowledgement of the problems with the human brain. I just didn't think I'd have to spell it out to you like that.

If they do, it ain't from too much exposure to the science channel, that much is certain.

I would gladly serve in an eternity of hell and suffering to see the look on GC, SW, or Drich's immaterial face if they died and were standing in front of Shiva or Zeus. Picturing it makes me laugh out loud.

It would be, if this thread were that thread, but it isn't, so it's not.

Not unless he started hitting on me, or kept trying to catch me coming out of the shower. Smile

i suspected as much (seriously) because you would not have asked a origins question when the bible states God's existence preceded creation.

Quote:How do you know that?
the bible teaches God was before the beginning of creation. Think about without any part of creation to mark the passage of time, time becomes an unknowable/undocumentiable variable. Therefore to exist before the beginning literally makes one timeless.

Quote:And...If I could muster the question, why can't I comprehend the stupid thing you just said?
You choose to retain your current level of understanding, rather than a/s/k for the gift of the Holy Spirit and the wisdom He offers you.

The sound of me reading my bible if one is made.

You didn't have to add the incestuous parts there; being homosexual doesn't make someone lust after every member of the same sex. Your misconceptions aside, you would accept and love him just the same? You wouldn't try to send him to straight camp?

indeed. You asked what my homosexual son would have to do to be disowned... I told you.

Homosexuality is a sin like any other sexual sin and should be approached like any other sexual sin.
I'd send him to a camp if he wanted to go. Believe it or not, not all people who have sexual feelings for the same sex want them.

If he wanted to embrace his feelings then I'd give him what he was due, and let him go and do what he wanted to do. Let him be his own man/woman or whatever the p/c term is this week. If and when he was ready to be an active member of this family I would welcome him home. (As per the story of the prodigal son)This would be true for a heterosexual daughter or son as well. Again homosexuality is a sexual sin like any other and will be treated as such.
