its a figure of speech that shows god never said to hate gay people. so shut up

by Anonymous 13 years ago

maybe you should shut up because in the bible god says love "should" be with a Man and a WOMAN. I'm not agains't homosexuals but that is what the bible says. p.s. when proving a point you don't gotta be so rude -.-

by Anonymous 13 years ago

well maybe you should think a little more. godd may have said that woman and man should be together but he never said man and man shouldn't be together or same with woman and woman. my point is that they shouldn't be hated for liking their own gender. it's wrong to be disrespectful in that manner. it's their right to choose who they want to be with, not yours

Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.' (Leviticus 18:22) If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable.

I'm just throwing this out there. In response to Leviticus: Leviticus is a holy code written 3000 years ago. It also includes prohibitions against round haircuts, tattoos, working on the Sabbath, wearing garments of mixed fabrics, eating pork or shellfish, getting your told, and playing with the skin of a pig. In response to the Corinthians: Being Christian isn't about "inheriting the kingdom of God" or rather, "going to heaven". It's about serving God, and if you're only doing it to get to heaven, or inherit the kingdom of God then you're doing it wrong. I do not kill because I as a human believe it is wrong, not just because a book tells me. Similarly, I serve God as a devout Catholic because I'm happy to do so, whatever, some people don't like that, but I say, "I'm happy with it, and I'm not affecting you, so there really shouldn't be a problem, you know?"

The word "homosexual" isn't used in the bible. That word was not used until the 1800s. I'm Catholic, before you try to bash me. I have not read the whole Bible, but I have read some parts of it. I know that the Bible has been translated over and over. I'm just saying, "homosexual" was not a word used back then.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I know you won't get this unless you go all the way back here and check it but I'm not here the bash anyone, and in response to "homosexual" not being in the Bible: (Dictionary.com defines it as:) ho·mo·sex·u·al (hō'mə-sěk'shōō-əl, -mō-) adj. Of, relating to, or having a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex. The word "rapture" is also not in the Bible, however it describes the event. My point is: if the Bible talks about things by describing it, not listing a vocabulary.

as long as were taking parts from the bible; when god made eve he said "...thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee." so does that mean youre against womens rights too? i mean, the bible said it. its not like sociatal views can evolve and change with time.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

"Wives submit to your husbands." Yep. We don't have to be against their rights, though, because guess what the Bible also says? "And husbands must love their wives as their own bodies." In other words: The wife must submit to the husband, but the husband must love his wife and not abuse this power. The Bible also says "slaves obey your masters," but then also says "and masters obey your slaves." Sociatal views changing has nothing to do with this. God's word is God's word - it wasn't written by any random man, this is the word of God and is meant to be treated as such. But one thing that never gets contradicted for deeper meaning is that a man shall not lie with a man as with a woman. Their is no contradiction, no food for more thought, just that. IT also says that God loves everybody, INCLUDING, as he says in Timothy, murderers, [list of bad sins], those who have relations with the same sex... So no, we aren't supposed to hate them. We love them as God loves them. But we don't believe that it is okay or in any way not a sin, but how can we judge when we too are sinners?

It does say in the Bible that a man shall not lie with another man (not in those words, but that's basically what it says). But you're right, it never says to hate them, it's just that people do because some people think anyone who goes against theBible's teachings is a horrible person or whatever. Or, other's hate them because they they're different than themselves.

Why does every get so mad about this topic. Gays always get angry and start accusing everyone of not accepting them. This always brings up huge arguments. Homosexuals should relax and learn how to be more passive.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's not that I hate gays, because I don't, i just think it is really really disgusting to see two guys frenching. And just because you're gay doesn't mean you have to act like a woman by changing your voice and what not. I guess I'm just really disgusted with their way of life. But im fine with gay people that don't make it totally obvious in public. Like Oscar from the office. He should be a role model for all of y'all.

i dont know about you, but ANY two people sucking face infront of me i find discusting. just because someone is gay doesnt mean all they do is have sex; its just like any other realationship. but your right, they should all just hide who they are; i mean ew. what are they thinking, having a personality and feelings for other people? gross.

"i doubt you read the bible -.-" "its a figure of speech that shows god never said to hate gay people. so shut up" So...You didn't even read the Bible to check for this? You just heard a figure of speech and decided it must be true? It never says to hate anyone. God says to love every man past their own sin. He DOES, however, say that it is wrong for the same sex to elope or have sexual relations. And, no, I personally have nothing against gays or anything on this matter, so that's not why I'm arguing with you.

Just search the article, "Can Homosexuals Make It To Heaven?" from the blog esoriano.wordress.com written by Bro. Eli Soriano. The article is based biblically, with articles from the Bible. You'll be surprise. The writer, dubbed as the most sensible preacher of this time, also explains the authenticity of the bible that even science cannot despute. It's a must-see blog for the Atheists.

There are some people in this world who live their entire lives based on a single, ancient book and think they are living the good life. I don't understand them, but I have to respect them up until the point where they interfere with basic human rights. I wish they would extend that same respect to the love between two same gendered people, but I can only lead by example. Hopefully, everyone will come to an understanding on this some day.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Please don't call it a "single, ancient book" as if it's irrelevant, because that's highly disrespectful. Since you said you want to respect Christians I actually think you'll listen to me (thank you for not being anti-Christian!!!) so I'm just going to say this: Since we as Christians believe God's word is eternal, the Bible will always be relevant to us, and it's kind of offensie to hear the sacred word of God referred to so passively. But I'm glad you are athiest and not anti-theist, there's way too many anti-theists these days.

"Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality" 1 Corinthians 6:9 "If a man practices homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman, both men have committed a detestable act." Leviticus 20:13 There are more verses in the bible about homosexuality, drinking, cursing, etc. Here is how it is. God loves EVERYONE, but he hates the SIN that we do. For example: Let's say that I kill somebody. Well that is considered a sin, and God still loves me for who I am, but he is disappointed in the way that I acted, and the path that I just chose to take. He still loves you if you're homosexual, but he is very disappointed and angry at the sin that you have committed.

All of you who are saying that it is wrong for man to lay with man should really shut up. It may say it's wrong, but it doesn't say it's illegal or anything. Besides, you have no say in How other genders feel about each other. That's wrong. This entire thing is pointless.

The bible was written and put together by man anyway. If go" was supposedly all-loving and all-accepting, then why are there so many types of people that are preached against in the "good book"?

I just read all of these comments and all I've come up with to say is that there seems to be some contradictions in the bible.

I just don't understand why people want to make others unhappy for being who they are, it's not right.

People need to understand that the Bible was written by man and as such has the biases of man (and by man I mean human beings; not trying to start a gender war here). I was raised catholic but I was also raised to think for myself and not let a book rule my life. I believe wholeheartedly in God and I refuse to believe that he would have a problem with any form of love, be it gay or straight. If people stopped nitpicking and looked at the basics of any religion they would see that God just wants us to be good, kind, generous and understanding.
