along with about 90 other abominations...most of which you are more than happy to ignore
An abomination is an abomination no matter how often the Lord used the word.

We can debate whether or not a woman, who is pregnant because she had been raped, has the right to an abortion, but the Lord said homosexuality is a sin (Lev 18:22).
I've never said that it wasn't.

Like I said, he didn't use the word "abomination" when talking about fabrics.

And I suspect he didn't use the word "abomination" in connection with shrimp, either.
He doesn't say using the Lord's name in vain is an
abomination either, but if He says not to do it, that
should be enough... right?

How do you make that connection? Killing an unborn baby was a sin in the IT and Jesus changed none of that in the NY.
We were talking about homosexuality, and originally we were talking about school prayer. Maybe you should start a thread about abortion.

The Constitution doesn't grant equal rights for sinners. If you murder someone, you go to jail. Same if you rob a bank or rape someone.
in accordance with the rights and legal protections guaranteed in the constitution

Do I hate these people? No. But I know what they do is wrong. How did I know? Because our Lord, who only wants what is best for us, said so.
Everything you posted says you do hate.

Yes, I agree with that.

Hate? I understand that sin destroys our lives, so I stand up against sin. You can call that hate, if you wish.

How do you know he is wearing a uniform of mixed fabric?
did you know you can find things out by looking them up?

Amazing i know.

For instance you can look up who makes major league baseball uniforms - (its a company called majestic athletic) and from that company you can find out that they make major league baseball uniforms out of wool, polyester and cotton.

Why? I didn't change the subject, I just answered your posts.

Unless the fabric is 100% polyester. Then I guess
he's in the clear. :)
I would have thought in those days the uniforms were made of cotton.

you support discrimination and you arrogantly refuse to even use the names of the people you want to discriminate against correctly that is how the shoe fits
I don't support discrimination. I just believe the Lord when he says a man should not have sex with another man (Lev 18:22).

Perhaps one can google what fabrics were used to make St. Louis Cardinal baseball uniforms in the 1950's and 1960's, but right now I have all I can handle keeping up with all of these posts.

I haven't stated I have an exact plan. I just see a country that has gone badly astray. I was touched by a picture of a T-shirt on Facebook that said something like:"Dear God, why do you allow such violence in schools? Signed - Concerned Student. Dear Concerned Student: I am not allowed in schools. Signed - God" I was touched by that.
I was just quoting what you wrote.

The problem with that shirt is--as you have been told many times in this thread--that God is allowed in schools. Any student can pray anytime he or she wishes to do so.

We can do whatever the Lord directs us to do.
And any student in a public school can pray to God anytime he or she wishes to do so. What cannot be done is to mandate prayers.

I don't think organized prayer is allowed in schools, is it?

Mandating prayers might help get this country back on track.
