Just out of interest, what would you consider as an example of a worse or more ignorant perspective (within Christianity) than 'homosexuality is a sin' ?

It'd be more of the manner of how against it they were, and why.

I mean he's not saying lets off them because they're different.
I can't answer too clearly, I have a terrible hangover-_- I was hoping to have fallen asleep by now.

But surely if you're a Christian who is against homosexuality it's essentially for the same reason... because it says in the Biblical books of Leviticus and Deutoronomy that homosexuality is a sin.

Won't be long before they switch to bombs.

Good for him for saying he's not going to cast judgement while simultaneously casting judgement on all homosexuals.

People should just learn to let people be people.

I always love this line of thinking:

Quote:
Yes, you may be physically attracted to people of the same sex, but how you act on those attractions is entirely your choice.


This is why that logic is flawed. If it was a "choice", any heterosexual has the potential to find members of the same sex physically attractive.

I'm a heterosexual man. As such, I do not find other men sexually attractive and nothing could ever make me "turn gay".

And similarly, I don't think there's anything that would make a homosexual "turn straight"

That is why the choice thing is such a load of crap. If it's a choice, then anyone should be able to just change their mind and find a member of the same sex sexually attractive.

But that doesn't happen. It's the same reason I think those people who postulate that theory are closet cases themselves. They do find members of the same sex attractive and can't reconcile it with their bigoted brains..

Of couuuuuuuuurse.

In their heads they're like "Well I look at guys all the time and think how hot they are, and I'm straight right? These gays can just do what I do".
