homosexuality is pronounced unacceptable by God.
Efforts are underway to find a genetic disposition to the 'condition', if you will. Whatever the results of the latter, does not diminish God's determination. It is the best I can do for you. I wish you well.

Whatever the results of the latter, does not diminish God's determination. Why would God be so cruel as to give someone a genetic predisposition to a trait he finds unacceptable? It's like saying, "I find having brown hair unacceptable. By the way, I'm giving you brown hair. Enjoy your stay in Hell." "He supposed that the intent of the Gospels was to teach people, among other things, to be merciful, even to the lowest of the low. But the Gospels actually taught this: Before you kill somebody, make absolutely sure he isn't well connected." -Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

What can I say... it's good to know that genetic superiority is what determines who gets into heaven.
God sounds like a great guy. "He supposed that the intent of the Gospels was to teach people, among other things, to be merciful, even to the lowest of the low. But the Gospels actually taught this: Before you kill somebody, make absolutely sure he isn't well connected." -Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.

Dan Carroll asks:
quote: Makes perfect sense when you consider this is the same God who ordered the genocide of the Amalekites and who hated Esau for no reason. I still don't understand what it is that makes him so much better than Satan.

genetic inferiorities have progressed since the time Adam could not contain himself. there is no genetic superiority to be found on this planet Well then, I'm confused. How can a person possibly be genetically inferior without another person being genetically superior to them?

Cool. I've been meaning to do that. But you haven't answered my question.

To PecosGeorge:
homosexuality is pronounced unacceptable by God. This claim is contestable, and has been conteste by many in this thread alone. Kindly support your claim before you make a statement so bold.
Efforts are underway to find a genetic disposition to the 'condition', if you will. Whatever the results of the latter, does not diminish God's determination. It is the best I can do for you. Interesting. So Homosexuality is not a willful choice (according to you) afterall. So they are (according to you) naturally (genetically) "un-reproductive" and "unnatural"? How bizarre?! that statement even sounds a little (godforbid!) contradictory?! Shed a little light this way please, if you're kind. Patiently awaiting your reply. "Respect is like money, it can only be earned. When it is given, it becomes pittance"

No more rounds, Dragon. You are aware of the scripture that speaks against homosexuality. I did not invent the decree.
As for what homosexuality is or is not - it is spoken against in the scriptures, that alone is what it is to me. As to giving it acceptance of any and every kind in society and whatever it is to be called, it is still spoken against in scripture. Thank you for your interest. I am not designed to defend scripture, they do not need it, and I do not defend my beliefs. They are mine - you may respect that if you wish, if you do not wish, that is also all the same to me.
