    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    The thing is, I don't believe in black and white morals. I don't believe in good and evil, at least not the same way you do. I think that there is a balance of what is good for yourself and what is good for the community(or tribe might be more accurate) that makes up what we consider good and...

    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    It doesn't really matter that much how you say it. No matter what it still sounds terrible telling someone that the way they are is sinful. This anti-gay thing is what will kill the modern church. Either the current churches are going to have to reform, or other more liberal churches will take...

    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    That's why I used the word might. It really depends on who you ask. If you were to ask me this would be my answer: The things I identify with I consider to be central to my personality; If you hate the things I identify with, in a way you are hating me; By extension you are hating the other...

    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    And seriously, how is being gay an inherently bad thing? Edit: And don't just say the Bible told me so.

    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    That's not any better. That means you hate their lifestyle, which might be worse actually.

    Is this normal?

    When I was a Christian, I would get angry too when people would say anything negative about my beliefs. Now I'm the one saying negative things about it. Next time someone says something negative about it, instead of getting angry try and figure out why they said that.

    When jesus returns

    Statistically speaking, it's unlikely it'll happen in your lifetime. I mean it seems that every generation of christians have thought that the end times were near and they were all wrong. Either way, I agree with the chill out advice.

    How can we tell ppl that homosexuality is wrong?

    So I don't know where this convo has gone, and I don't really care. I'm just going to reply to the op. So if you are going to tell someone something is wrong, then you should probably provide some reasons for that (Note that I'm not saying that just because something isn't wrong that it is...

    Why do people feel the need to insult others?

    Some people are just asses and don't know how to be anything else. If you think that your family members are being unfair, rude, or angry, confront them about it. If they are even moderately reasonable they will probably listen to what you have to say. Though I think a better piece of advice is...

    Blasphemy?

    According to this you haven't blasphemed to the point of unforgiveness:What is blasphemy against the Holy Ghost? If you had you would probably know it. I've committed unforgivable blasphemy a few times, and it was quite deliberate. I would demonstrate what it is, but I believe it is against...

    Are All Sins Equal?

    Nah, there is an option for "No, sins are not equal" and "Yes, all sins are equal except blasphemy". I don't believe that sin exists, therefore I cannot participate in the poll because there is no neutral position.

    Phobia of dying - please help me!

    I know I'm an atheist and death is something that we have different perspectives on, but this is how I resolve death. I believe that when I die that I will cease to exist. I didn't exist before I was born, nor do I have any memories of that time. This has never bothered me so why should death...

    Way to resurrect this long dead thread, but put simply, this is untrue.

    Do I have to learn evolution in school .....

    How would 3.8 billion years not be enough for life to get to where it is today? I would like to see the math you are looking at, because 3.8 billion years is a very, very long time.

    Would you smoke pot if it were legal?

    I think that there are laws against it everywhere in the US, or at least nearly so.

    Would you smoke pot if it were legal?

    Which was my point. It might be of personal relevance/interest, but in the larger scheme of things(peoples' safety/the law), it is irrelevant.
