That's a little bit harsh Oliver. lol I mean he's entitled to his view surely. I am a christian as well and where I can't say I agree with gay marriage because it does say in black and white that homosexuality is a sin, I have to say that the way iamned comes across is not the most christian like. As a christian I should not be pointing the finger and judging people but instead letting my own life be an example of my faith. I would on the other hand be somewhat offended if a gay couple demanded to be married in my church.
Well, most places don't right now but that doesn't mean you have to support that type of thinking, right. If you do, you are certainly entitled to your opinion but it seems you are implying its wrong because the government says so. Am I misinterpreting that?
Everyone is entitled to an opinion, as am I. Personally, I think it's somewhat small minded to say it's an abomination. I don't think anyone should be attacked for the way they feel. So what, if someone's gay they should just turn around and say "Actually, it is wrong... Blimey, why didn't I realise this sooner? I think I'll be straight now" Anyway - I don't like getting involved in this type of conversation as I don't think it ever solves anything.
Same here and I knew as soon as I saw iamneds post, I knew that there would be some angry people so thought I better come in and try to dissolve the situation. Normally a random comment helps. Anyone?
And the truth shall set you free!!! Weirfire that is the best explanation of what I personally see Christianity SHOULD be. I am not Christian nor am I anti-Christian, hell everyone is entitled to religious freedom, it makes the world diverse. I do however believe if more people would take your advice this world would be a great place for our children to grow up.
I watched "Animal House" and it made me realize that people that don't party are an abomination and sinners hows that?
Thanks spyder I'm still bracing myself for a lot of stick for airing my point of view as I know that I will still be in the minority.
nah it still conjures up the post that I am ned wrote. lol How about tigers look funny wearing roller skates?
The issue I have with this is if you truly believe they do have civil rights like everyone, whats the issue with allowing civil marriages. I doubt people are demanding they be recognized by the church...They are looking for them to be recognized by the state so they can have the same rights as others.
"Gays have civil rights like everyone else but that doesn't entitle them to marriage." Thats like saying "Blacks have civil rights like everyone else but that doesn't entitle them to freedom." Or "Women have civil rights like everyone else but that doesn't entitle them to vote or own property."
I wouldn't give you any...It is certainly your right. You don't have a hatred like some others seem to. Its that part that discounts their opinion when they are trying to claim the moral high ground given to them by God.
Hey SE - http://www.politicalcrossfire.com/ lol (By the way, when I go to that url it says I have been banned )
Whats the big deal? Let homosexual people get married. They are not harming others by doing so. They should be entitled to the same rights as every other human being, and if they want to get married - who are we to stop them. I don't believe at all that homosexuality is a sin. If I'm honest, when I was younger I used to think it was gross and have the attitude of 'God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve''... but then I grew up. People need to be a little more open minded.
