[QUOTE="Beanieboy, post: 50640192, member: 138244"] 2 posts that mirror my OP? Well, imitation is the greatest flattery. Do Hindus realize what they are asking of Christians? They are asking them to deny the belief that only through Christ will people come to God! They demand Christians to deny Christ, and the Word! And they will raise little Hindu children praying to Elephant head gods, and lead them to hell! Except, you let them live their lives, and they allow you to live yours. My OP, by contrast, was simply trying to make sure that Christians saying, "leave the gay 'lifestyle' ", who often seem to be thinking it is something like, quitting smoking, a habit you give up, a simple "act", and nothing more, like giving up chew that you spit into a nasty bottle, but that the "gay lifestyle" is a gay life, which includes houses couples buy together, relationships of love, support, companionship, etc. I don't ask you to leave your spouse. I don't ask you to admit that you love for your spouse is just lust, because I know your heart. I don't use Paul to say that the only reason that straight people marry, rather than remain single, is because they are weak in the flesh, instead of strong like Jesus and Paul, and the disciples, while not demanding celibacy of myself. I don't ask you to change your religious beliefs. I don't ask you to be approving, or give me your blessing. My understanding of Christianity is that I give love, rather than ask others to earn it, because that is how it is given to me. You can even say that God hates me, and that I am no Christian. Be my guest. Rather, my only real sin against heterosexuals, is to simply being treated as an equal under the law. You don't have to approve of me at all, much the same way you don't have to approve of Hinduism. And if that is asking too much, I'm sorry. [/QUOTE]
