Dwight, you seem like a decent person to me. Why do you have such a bee up your bum about Homosexuals. You really do come off sounding pretty bad you know. I do not think it is too late for you to purge the hatred you have for these people out of your heart. I have a few gay friends and they have had a terrible time dealing with hate and bigotry over the years. They are productive members of society, who vote and pay their taxes, just like you and I do. They tell me they knew at a very young age they were gay. Christine might be on to something with the womb theories she mentioned. Actually scientific studies are much further ahead on this topic and it is pretty well a given that Gayness is built in. If they were born gay, then it must be God's will. Who gave you the authority to question God's will? purething p.s. I couldn't give a sh#t if you prayed for me or not!

<What if everyone is perfect just as they are?> I meant that I found it hard to believe that God, if He exists, would be such a mean God that he would create beings, some of which were imperfect in the sense that they were homosexual, and then consign them to a sinful state unless they abstained from sexual expression their entire lives. Who are we to make such horrendously confining rules for other people, and decide they are sinful if they do not abide by those rules? Incidentally, I already posted a story about oystercatcher birds, who are lesbians as I recall. The scientific literature is absolutely full of examples of homosexual animals, not just in thought but in deed. Is it really possible that God would create animals like that, if He meant homosexuality to be a state of disgrace? And are animals free from sin in a Christian sense? Incidentally, look at the post you wrote me. Don't you think that is slightly offensive to someone who is not even a Christian? What if everyone is perfect just as they are? Christine, do me a little favor. I want you to write down on a piece of paper every single time you have an ill thought towards anyone else, and every time you speak ill of or to someone else. Sins of commission are in thought, word, and deed. Do the above record keeping for a couple of days, and try to be honest--God knows your thoughts, so it won't do any good to not count some of them. You may be able to deceive me, but you won't be deceiving God. Good luck. I think you'll find that you sin much every day, and deserve nothing but punishment, just like the Bible says. Well, whatever. Homosexual sex acts described scientifically, right here!!! qrd.rdrop.com
