<< Is this to say that you are an ok person because you don't take a stand against immorality? >>

I don't really know. What do you think? Am I an evil person? What do you want the government to do with people like me? Should we have trials? How about bringing the Inquisition back?

<< The gay lifestyle is perverted, the whole agenda of equality for gays is perverted, and anyone who stands up for gay rights is perverted. >>

You sound like your prefer hate to forgiveness.

So...... the gay lifestyle is perverted?! I take it that you are a male. Suppose that you were born with female hormones or female tendencies. In fact, some are born with both male and female sex organs, or mixtures of both. What would you do with these awful people? Would you want them stoned? Perhaps we could have stonings of children, who are born with gay tendencies, right in the cafeteria of grade schools at lunch. The children would then learn how compassionate your god is, and about the compassion of His followers.

<< It's a good thing the bible spells out the sin of homosexuality or else there would be even more people scratching their heads wondering if it's ok or not. >>

Yeh. I've read it:

"Leviticus(20:13) If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death."

So, people that are blessed by God to be born gay, should be put to death. Nice guy! Do you sit around at night pulling the wings off of flys?

<< I live in a state that is trying to allow same sex marriage and I guess it's people like you would would vote it in because you don't want to deny people their rights. >>

So...... you would deny a lasting relationship to two men or women who love each other? Marriage is more than just about sex. Could you be overly concerned about sexual behaviour?

There is about a 50% marriage breakup in this country. That means that many more couples are living together in misery. Marriage is not really working very well for opposite sex couples. The real shame is that we don't teach our children effectively enough about long term relationships, and the importance of selecting the right partner. Sexual education in our schools has been flunking the test for years. Hmmm!? Perhaps we heterosexual could learn something about commitment from the gays? Whatcha think?

<< Well, as for me and my house we will serve the Lord our God and do our best to make sure gays stay a minority and not a majority over here. >>

Well, I wonder how well you are doing at serving your lord? How well do think you are doing at serving my Lord?

After all, there is a good possibility that Jesus was gay. Also, seeing that your god doesn't hesitate from creating gays, you are openly criticizing His great work, aren't you? Is that a regular sin or a mortal sin?

Regards, Bob
