Nice dodge, you completely failed to address my point. But since you don't deny any of it, and even claim its all gods plan, that is pretty much the same as admitting the ugly truth behind my assertion.
So according to this logic, my aunt and uncle(both Methodist) who have been married for nearly 40 years and have no children, do not have a valid marriage?
This is possible only if the couple is of child bearing years, or are both fertile. If they are not, which is often the case, they are unable to have a child. Are you suggesting that such a couple cannot be sealed by God? Are you suggesting that a couple that is fertile that waits 5 years is not sealed by God until they have a child? Are you suggesting that having a child somehow creates the bond of the marriage, and not the love that they have prior to the child?
It's very naive thinking, insulting to people that either don't have kids, or chose not to have them, couples who don't have children yet, and simply faulty logic.
Therefore, I can only conclude that such foolishness is your standard, and not God's.
I'm very sure they tried to have children. Two homosexuals never try to have children through their sexual acts, unless they are really sick.
I would say that homosexual "marriage" is insulting to everything marriage stands for, with nothing of a homosexual nature that provides any redeeming quality to such a union.
GOD provided YOU with a SAVIOR --- HIS SON. If you fail to embrace HIM that is your UGLY PRIDE that sends you to hell and not GOD's LOVE. That is the truth. Your twist on it is what is UGLY.
They've had plenty of sex I am sure, but no, they have never, to my knowledge, tried to have children. They both lead very busy lives, spending the majority of their free time traveling.
In any case that still dodges the entire point. According to your post, if two people are married, yet never have children, whether by choice or by circumstances, their marriage is not valid.
Hnnngh... lllll... lllooo... LOVE!
Sexuality is a chosen behaviour? Wonderful now perhaps you can tell us, assuming you have chosen to be straight, when exactly you decided to stop being attracted to women?Homosexuality is a chosen behavior and God will not accept it. We cannot decide what is right and wrong simply by our feelings. Feelings change with our mood but the word of God never changes...Amen.

and God will not accept it.

Until death they do part. Husband and wife they are. Mother and Father they might have been... None of this fits pal boy "marriages."

Homosexuals originated from heterosexual sex, ONLY.
Homosexuals cannot procreate using homosexual behavior patterns.
Au contraire. I am a good example to children, and I know many other people, both gay and straight, who are good examples to children.Homosexual behavior patterns are not appropiate to teach impressionable children.
LOVE has nothing to do with sex;
however, the origin of the children and the propagation of the species does.
On the other hand, values (family or otherwise) are the responsibility of the parents.
And, values are best taught by EXAMPLE.
Homosexuality happens in the animal kingdom.
For example, there were the famous gay penguins at Central Park Zoo. Seeing that the animals exibit homosexual behavior, one must either assume that the penguins "choose" to be homosexual, or that, like most animals, they were acting on their natural instincts.
If heterosexual penguins are needed to propagate the species, why would God create homosexual penguins? Or did they "choose" to be gay, and if so, have souls?
Cantata chose her orientation.
I can't say that I choose mine. It choose me. I can certainly choose to act or not act on it, but can't change my sexual orientation.
Anyone who claims that it is merely a choice must admit that they are strongly attracted to both sexes, and just choose to live a heterosexaul life. I one isn't attracted to the same sex, then there is no choice available.
Since when is man an animal that he should compare his actions to one. Show me the 8 year old boy who didn't think girls were yucky or the little girl who didn't think boys had cuties and I'd show you an exceptional child. Yes, it is a choice and that choice can be influenced by one's preoccupation with sex in one's formative years. I also believe that once one does something he/she has been warned not to do, it becomes even more difficult for that one to make correct choices.
Again you make it clear that you only wish to apply your notion of “fertility" to minoritiesI'm very sure they tried to have children. Two homosexuals never try to have children through their sexual acts, unless they are really sick.
The only choice our gay and lesbian have is the choice to live their lives with honesty and integrity or to choose to live a life of lies, deceit and self-hatred all because others choose to hate them for being honest.Homosexuality is a chosen behavior and God will not accept it.
Prejudice feels wrongWe cannot decide what is right and wrong simply by our feelings.
And that is why eating lobster is a sin .because the word of God never changes And that is why wearing clothing made of two different fabrics is a sin .because the word of God never changesFeelings change with our mood but the word of God never changes...Amen.
What about a woman who knows that she will never conceive because she had her uterus and ovaries removed for medical reasons (i.e., a complete hysterectomy)? No miracle births have ever been documented for a woman without a uterus and ovaries. If the only reason a couple should have sex is if they're hoping that by doing so they'll conceive a child, does that mean that woman should never have sex? (Or are you claiming that a woman without eggs and a womb might bear a miracle child? I think that's just as likely as a miracle child through homosexual sex, eh?)I am saying that Abraham & Sarah, Samson's parents, Samuel's parents, AND Elizabeth and Zechariah; ALL had their child in later years. They were blessed by GOD. No miracle birth of any baby to any "homosexual couple" that I have found... These are GOD's standards and not mine. I would not call them foolish. I would say that homosexual "marriage" is insulting to everything marriage stands for, with nothing of a homosexual nature that provides any redeeming quality to such a union.
