  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Yet another homosexuality thread.

Becuase you can never have enough homosexuality threads. ;)

I'm going to state right up front that I am not a Christian. The Bible and scripture mean next to nothing to me.

So, I'd like you to prove to me that homosexuality is wrong outside of a Biblical context.

its biologically an improper use for sexual organs... women are physiologically designed to have sex with men and vice versa

No such thing as love? You must have had a lonely childhood.

love is just a nebulous term to describe the need to mate between people, or more accurately the inflow of brain chemicals that produces that, its biologically no different than eating large quantities of chocolate

humans arent special every creature has a process like that if not that process exactly

so here is my point... the original question told us to put aside the Bible and God and answer the question. i heartily believe that without God without God there is nothing good, special or unique about people... were just another kind of animal and just like all animals rather than having some kind of special purpose were all just slaves to cold, calculated and inescapably precise scientific laws that predetermined everything about us.

love, purpose, worth and the ability to choose your own path, in my beliefs, come solely from my superstitious belief in God.

i believe in love, i had a wonderful childhood (i fell in love with my husband on a field trip when i was 8) with a big family (hello? mexican) and i believe sex is more than reproduction and relationships are more than sex and love is more than just a relationship.

but i believe that because of my belief in God... the one i was asked to suspend at the beginning of this question. and that God has made certain things lawful and certain things unlawful... one of these things is homosexuality... but along with that is hatred of homosexuals... people we are called to love

So? Are you gonna sit there and claim that people only have sex in order to reproduce? People also have sex to show affection and intimacy and, of course, becuase it feels good.

What kind of Catholic are you?
Surely you believe there is such a thing as affection?

To answer your first question: a theologically very rigorous one. Despite the fact that Annette and I disagree on a multitude of theological issues, she has certainly earned my full respect (that is, in addition to the respect I would intrinsically give any fellow Christian). I would encourage you to carefully consider what she says, because Annette doesn't usually make a statement lacking a good deal of analytical reasoning.

Ah, I see where you're coming from now. Is your belief in God inseperable from your belief in the Bible? If there was no Bible, would you still believe in God?

And....what is the appropriate action to show affection between two intimate members of the same sex?

Do you have any reason why a human cannot have a sex with animal or own sister, mother..etc?

You aren't actually trying to compare those acts to homosexuality again, are you? That comparison is kind of---I'll censor myself---silly.
