Can someone enlighten me as to what passage in the stupid bible is interpreted as labeling homosexuality a sin?

Romulus · 06-07-2007, 07:02 PM

Romans 1:27
In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

1 Corinthians 6:9
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders

heres a couple and there are more but this should do for now

Romulus · 06-07-2007, 07:40 PM

If they do not have a relationship with Christ they wont.

So , you are saying that innocent and noble homosexuals, just because they may not have a relationship ( I hope u mean the spiritual one ) with Jesus, will not go to heaven !!!

Paul was such a prude.

Yes. John 14:6 says,' Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." '

This may seem narrow-minded, but it is actually quite simple. Even though we are not perfect, there is still a way to get to Heaven. A homosexual can be a Christian. It is just another sin, like lying. Just because we lie does not mean we cannot go to Heaven. We just have to accept Christ as our savior. We will never be perfect.

But the problem is, homosexuality is a fact of nature. How can that be a sin?

All sin is part of human nature. That's why, according to christians, we need a saviour. Because we can't help but sin. It's in our genes. We have to pay for the mistakes of our ancestors. Fair, isn't it?

No, the Bible definitely teaches that homosexuality is a grave sin. Soddom and Gommorah was rained down with fire and sulpher because of the homosexual acts. In this story God destroyed the homosexuals. Why do christians try to paint a rose colored picture of what their denomination stands for?

(I'm not representing my opinion of homosexuality as I am not christian-just what the Bible plainly represents).
