My assertion that a homosexual orientation is an aberration akin to impotence because they inhibit reproduction is based on the premise that both are fixed qualities. Neither is chosen. Your example is drawing what I assume is an unintended conclusion that homosexuality is chosen. In no way...

Overanalyzing everything has led you to misinterpreting all that I've posted. The physical survival of the human species is dependent upon heterosexuality. Reiterating what I originally posted, Helen Fisher in her book the Anatomy of Love explains, "If you raise babies that have babies, you are...

The social implications are what is troublesome. Since the survival of the species is dependent upon heterosexuality, then naturally that is what our social structure is built upon and which has conditioned us to survive on a social level. Any other course taken would have led to an early...

I merely thought that it should be pointed out. Wells thats just lovely for swans, but humans are an entirely different equation.

What I was inferring is that impotence among heterosexuals is an aberration of nature because it prevents reproduction. Not the person themselves. Same for homosexuals, it is their sexual orientation that inhibits reproduction, and should likewise be considered an aberration.

Might I add that just because something appears in nature, does not automatically make it beneficial to nature. Helen Fisher in her book the Anatomy of Love explains, "If you raise babies that have babies, you are what nature calls fit. You have passed your genes to the next generation and in...

Whether it is being interpreted as "living being" or "living soul", the hebrew term in question is the word Nephesh. And it is used 475 times in The Old Testament in reference to the assumption of a soul in the following books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges...

I beg to differ. Genesis 2:7 reads, "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." The hebrew word used for breath has another interpretation meaning spirit, although its only used as such once. Even...

No problem, reply when you can. "In your patience possess ye your souls."  (Luke 21:19)   

Likewise, there are many areas of the Bible that are candid and concise.  Should Leviticus be an exception?  Not necessarily. You're the one who brought up the "cause and effect" theory.  I merely applied it to see if it was sensible or not. Don't forget that...

I'm giving up on leecappella.  If fragmentsofdreams still wants to reply to my earlier response then I'll converse with him. 1 Corinthians 15:23-24, Apollo Belvedre

3.  You're reading things that aren't there.  Remember this is a book of laws, meaning that the laws must be written clear enough so that more than just the author will be able to understand them.  That's why zakar is used instead of iysh, to detail that...

1.  I don't dispute that. 2.  I'm not denying that. 3.  Good point, and this is why.  True, in the begining there were no numbers to distinguish between verses I'm well aware of that, but you seem to be overlooking one simple fact.  Every act prohibited...

Concerning the emphasis that's given on the presence of the word "abomination" in Leviticus.  The Hebrew word for abomination (tow'ebah), is only used six times in Leviticus.  This is done deliberatly to describe the kind...

Let me just point out some things that seem to be inconsistant.  First the information that you provided begins by saying, "What on earth does a verse about Molech have to do with a well ordered text that talks everywhere else about sex?"  Later on it trys to ascribe...

I'm getting anxious to move one.

Foolishness, pride, blashpemy, envy, lasciviousness, covetousness. Good point.  There is no witness to marriage higher than God.   1 Corinthians 15:23-24, Apollo Belvedre

I've heard people suggest that David and Jonathan's relationship was a homosexual one before, but closer inspection proves that to be totally absurd.  Read 1 Samuel 20:17, this is what it says: And Jonathan caused David to swear again, because he loved him: for he...

You misunderstood.  I was merely reproving PastorFreud's condenscending response to Outspoken.  Other than that I attempted to make no correlation between anything.  Its interesting though what you appear to be saying.  Your description of "a...

I hope you're not implying that to damage oneself is perfectly alright. "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.  All...
