    *i*n*c*e*s*t* (???)

    This is exactly the reasoning behind a few other sins as well, though I will not mention them so we can remain on topic. What many Christians have trouble understanding, or at least believing, is that sin is only sin because goes against God's Will or Purpose.

    Question for Christians

    Perhaps you should go check out one of the hundred or so other threads that talks about what the Bible says about homosexuality. First of all, if you want to argue purely on OT grounds, then you should research the difference between the laws in the OT that are placed there for ritual purity...

    Question for Christians

    Lesbians are also at higher risk for STDs and other health problems than heterosexuals.59 However, the health consequences of lesbianism are less well documented than for male homosexuals. This is partly because the devastation of AIDS has caused male homosexual activity to draw the lion's share...

    Question for Christians

    livehope.org does not have to be unbiased, thank you very much. The purpose of me placing it on the boards was so that our good friend Volos could find the missing ex-homosexuals of his. Unfortunately, some researchers don't look to deep. God forbid those darn ex-homosexuals grouping together to...

    Question for Christians

    Correction: What does exist is a growing number of poorly conducted extremely biased studies that are performed by gay advocates themselves. There is far more evidence, and logic, to suggest that homosexuality is a result of environmental factors then there is of genetic factors. "Current...

    Question for Christians

    Let us clarify something early on here: it is not a choice as to which sins are more of a stumbling block to certain people then others. The choice comes from whether or not those people act out on their propensity towards that sin. Exactly. I pretty much agree with your first paragraph, but...

    Canada and the gay marriage decision

    As an ex-gay, I can personally tell you that it is innaccurate. (Though I did grow up in a rather liberal area...) Did I suffer discrimination beyond what I currently deal with? Of course not. In fact, as an ex-gay, I would say that I suffer far worse discrimination currently. Have you any idea...

    Canada and the gay marriage decision

    Which is why I wait for more such studies to be done in Canada. The only one I have found for Canada is quite sub-par as far as survey methods go... Ouch. Sounds like a generalization, and an inaccurate one at that. Almost all Americans feel alone, depressed, and/or looked down upon for some...

    Canada and the gay marriage decision

    http://www.marriagedebate.com/home_includes/SSdivorcerisk.pdf I thought this might be interesting to those of you that think that SSM will pose no threat to marriage... The survey revealed a high rate of legal divorce among homosexual couples in Sweden. Gay male couples were 50% more likely...

    I am an ex homosexual and a happily married man

    Well, let me answer your first false assumption that there have been no successful changes in orientation. Firstly, you rely on biased information. And yes, you are right that I say that a lot about what is posted here, but tell me, am I wrong? Honestly, you guys choose the most liberally biased...

    I am an ex homosexual and a happily married man

    False assumption. Please support your claim that God made you gay. Really? You go to Pride parade as an ex-homosexual, and then we'll see if what you say is true. Believe me, I have been there, and I am telling you that is the truth. 1. No one has yet provided any citations of this so called...

    I am an ex homosexual and a happily married man

    Pardon, but I need to interject something here that I was not quite clear on. I am not arguing what the definition of homosexuality is. I am arguing that the definition should not be what it is. Because, you will note, since the definition of homosexuality is based on desire, and not action...

    I am an ex homosexual and a happily married man

    I agree, though I do not believe it is always God's Will for everyone to make a full recovery from homosexuality. Afterall, Paul himself could not get rid of the "thorn" he carried with him. Sometimes God has something for us to learn that we may just not be getting. So are you saying that a...

    I am an ex homosexual and a happily married man

    Interesting how us ex-homosexuals get attacked far more then homosexuals do. Cripes, and it shows the hypocricy of gay-advocates when they DO attack us. How interesting... At any rate, I also am currently a heterosexual male who was saved from my homosexual attractions through counciling that...

    Response to Mel White's Gay Theology

    We can already see that Mr. White is going to argue the term arsenokoite. Let me point out that my only intention is to deal with that term, and not touch on malokois. In other words, stop sinning because you have faith, and love in God. Not because a law book tells you to. But...
