Nonhuman animals feel love, pain, suffering, joy, pleasure just like humans do. And sorry to burst your bubble, but there are lots of people who are zoosexuals in the west.

"You could move."
-Abigail Van Buren,
(Dear Abby),
in response to a reader
who complained that a
gay couple was moving
in across the street and
wanted to know what
he could do to improve
the quality of the
neighborhood.

Scripture time:
MATTHEW 24:3
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
MATTHEW 24:4
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
MATTHEW 24:5
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
MATTHEW 24:6
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
MATTHEW 24:7
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
MATTHEW 24:8
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
MATTHEW 24:9
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
MATTHEW 24:10
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
MATTHEW 24:11
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
MATTHEW 24:12
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
MATTHEW 24:13
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
MATTHEW 24:14
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Um, so quoting scripture is gonna fix it? I was thinking more along the lines of getting off our duffs and doing something about it.....but you can quote the scriptures if you think it will do any good.  |

The phrase "two consenting adults" seems to be the pivotal point of these debates and usually leads to broader questions like: Why stop at two? Why not two or more? Does the government have the right to tell us how many people ought to love each other at any one given time? Why does the government allow serial polygamy, but not group polygamy? Isn't this also a restriction of personal freedom?
My question: Where should we draw the line and why? |

I believe in the power of God's Holy Word-it states it is the power unto Salvation. The Word of God, did Jesus well when His ministry began in the wilderness-days and nights without food and water, Satan kept coming to Jesus trying to tempt the Incarnate God-Jesus-He answered Satan with the Word of God. Yes, I believe the Word of God never returns void.

So what does that have to do with what I said? I believe in the power of prayer but I also believe that faith without works is dead....... |
