Homosexuality

[intricatic]

Why the use of the word Homoerotic?

Because I'm not talking about people, desire, attraction, etc.. I'm talking about action and the reality behind the idea itself - it has nothing to do with how deserving a person is of forgiveness, or how much worse it is than any other sin, and I don't want to appear to be saying that. I'd use the generic term 'fornication', but it'd probably be misunderstood by a good deal of people.

What if two guys Love each other, is that considered Homoeroticism or is it two Guys who Love each other? And I don't mean your interpetation of David and Jonathan By the way your Cat is making me sneeze achooo

Good points, I love it. The Bible DOES NOT mention same sex attraction or love relationships ONE TIME!

That's because she's always clinging from the ceiling hissing at people.

It's just as sinful as a straight guy and a straight girl who truly love one another sleeping together outside marriage.

What if the aforementioned individuals get married?
No I am allergic to cats They make my eyes swell up and hard to breath

Matthew 19

I think everyone should read this chapter thoroughly and understand it for what it means.

I'm glad I'm not allergic to cats, I'd die. We have four of them in my house right now.

Some people are too stubborn to let go of hate.

Some people are too stubborn to let go of hate.

And some people don't hold hate, despite the popular opinion.

Exactly, its about fornication not who you love.

I thought you meant anyone who thinks it's a sin, in general. Apologies.

I read it the first time. It could be like the slavery thing, one that was relavent in its time or it could mean that there is no room at the table for Gods Gay children. I am not sure.

You have to get it out of your mind that the sin is inherent in an individual. That's not how it works. Sin is action.

Wow, I can think of hundreds of examples that prove that wrong. "His wife" "Her husband" You notice their is a lack of "his husband" and "Her wife"

My "Commentary"

I guess my point is that I find it incongruous that God would tell a certain subset that they were to refrain from Love and family. You get my point? You speak of your celibacy, but yet you have the Hope of Love and all that it brings. I would find life very bleak if I knew at this very moment that I could never have the hope to Love again. What would the purpose be? It is not good for Man to be alone. Life would then become a slouch to the finish line.

If I were called to celibacy, I would be called to celibacy. This is not unique in the world, and in hardships we can be weakest in resolve and purpose, but with Christ, all things are possible. His strength is made perfect in weakness. That's not just rhetoric, either.

You would have the love of your brothers and sisters in Christ, and the love of Christ Himself. Isn't that enough?

Sorry about your job and school. Make sure you get back into school, It is imperative. Im doing it and I am older than you. I spent 5 hours in the Library math Lab today cramming for a calculus II midterm Friday. All this because I was laid off also. I digress, Just not in the mood to answer the other questions. Night

Bah, I thought I deleted that. I'm not kicked out yet and I've told my family they're not going to be giving me the same quarter they gave me last quarter once school starts back up.

I can imagine where you're coming from, I don't mean for it to sound like an easy thing to face. I'll keep you in prayers over the job and school situation, if anyone knows how rough that can be, it's me.
