Even if a genetic predisposition can be found for homosexual behaviour it does not make it "right". If it did there is a clear genetic link fo those males with an extra y-chromozone. They are genetically predesposed to violent behaviour. So if we allow homosexual behaviour because it is genetic then we will also have to allow violence on the same argument.

"Right" and "Wrong" are defined by ones moral orientation such as religion

If you happen to be a subscriber to a religious idea that declares that homosexuality is wrong -- then for you it is!

For homosexuals do declare that we can not call it "wrong" violates our right to believe as we see fit.

Violence is wrong and so is homosexuality

Even Jesus tells us that we must first remove the speck from our eyes before removing the speck from our brother''''s eyes. In other words, or worse, you are ALLOWED to point out the sins of your brothers/sisters in Christ in love.

You sir seriously need to read the Bible more.

%u201Cif you are not committing the SAME sin"???
singinrick, I can''t believe that even you would make a pathetic leap like that..

Don%u2019t you think that Jesus (Or the writer of the phrase) meant you are not to judge others until you have removed ALL specks from your own eyes?

I believe %u201Cspecks%u201D implies plurality.

You sir need to stop thinking you know it all. You can take verse from the Bible and find one meaning and I can find a totally different meaning to the same verse. What makes you the expert? Is this not judging when you say I am wrong? The last time I looked in the mirror, I did not wear a crown of thorns nor did I have holes in my feet, hands and side, therefore I know I am not the second coming of Christ as for you, I think you do think you are him. Satan has reservations for you and your pretend right wing supposed Christian fanatics and you won''t need to much clothing because it''s going to be HOT!

It would be nice, if people would stop quoting scripture long enough, to recognize the implications of proof that homosexuality is genetic.

But apparently, more people want to throw the bible around than consider what you are being told here- which is sad.

So in summary:

1. Homosexuality is genetic. These people don''t have a choice. It''s the same genetic truth that makes Chinese people Chinese, tall people tall, and smart people smart.

2. It''s unethical (and perhaps illegal) to discriminate against anyone based on genetic makeup.

3. In order to eliminate homosexuality from the population, you would have to practice eugenics and gene manipulation on a massive scale. Which is wrong.

4. The bible, doesn''t negate point number one. Nor does it grant allowances or permissions to pursue genetic discrimination or eugenics.

Some of you people need to grow a compassion muscle.

Without getting the Bible into it, homosexuality is a curse on humanity because it denigrates the community of man. We are supposed to be better than animals, yet we make excuses to emulate animal behavior. Homoseuality is one way of emulating animal behavior. I''m sure you can think of many more ways of doing that. But, homosexuality, both male and female, is of the sort that makes one less. It makes one less becuase it is a sign that the homoseual has given up on themself as a human being. That''s right: as a practicing homosexual you have quit on yourself as a man or woman. It is our, humans, goal to improve ourselves in everyway. Animals are merely requiried to perpetuate themselves and not get any better. Look at the instinctions resulting from climate change. Humans survive because it is in their nature to overcome these things. Homosexuality is a halt to any human progress. Why? Because they quit on themselves and on every other human being. They are anethema and have no place in society, regardless of their talents. Please, don''t quote me the many contributions of the gay community. In the end, it is all about sexual contact to all homosexuals, male and female. And, in that regard, they abase themselves.

jairod: well, i guess my role is to be a stumbling block. To say that an intelligent being created all of this, therefore he is looking over us and judging "sin" seems to be a logical chasm that not even Evel Knievel on a fast motorcycle would try to leap.

singinrick, I''m not making excuses for anything. I''m pointing out the hypocrisy of some. I believe in God, Heaven and Hell, but I don''t believe in picking and choosing what "rules" I will follow and the ones I won''t. You can''t just run back to God every time you sin and ask for forgiveness, that''s not the way the game works. As for you, you are not following Gods word by judging others therefore you fall into the hypocrite group. Have a wonderful day ricky.

honestabe8: Why you don''t believe is a mystery to those that do. What you cll superstition in turn is referred to as blindness. You may value your reasoning and logic, but that is roadblock to seeing the truth behind the words of many a sage. In general, it is agreed that there is one, all encompassing intelligence that set the comsos in motion. Nothing happens without a cause, and all philosophers agree and the prime-mover, the sine qua non, if you will, of the existence of the universe. For some, they call this God. And, by extension, as is the tradition of many, when God spoke the words of creation, that Word was with God and the Word was Jesus. Perhjaps it is beyond you to understand because you have been chosen by God to act a stumbling block for those whose faith is weak. You are the means of wht they have to overcome in order to strengthen their own faith. You, my friend, are the Pharoah to those who believe.

If Jesus Christ preached, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone", then shouldn''''''''t you shut up about the whole issue? Or are you without sin?

And where is the bible passage banning homosexuality?

Posted by hungry1968

-Hungry, I bet your thoroughly enjoying that a person who claims to be a "Christian" is siding with you on this issue aren''''t you?

Besides, you''''re not a Christian, so why in the world would you care about what the Bible says.

You aren''''t saved, you don''''t have the Holy Spirit, and you can''''t used God''''s word because you''''ve rejected it.

There''''s no point in showing you anything from the scripture, because you don''''t want to know the Truth, you just want to ridicule Him. Jesus Christ loves you too though, and he offers His free gift of salvation and eternal life if you will believe and trust in Him.

This is typical singinrick non-response. I believe it is called Subterfuge (doublespeak).
Instead of honestly engaging and trying to convert, or whatever, he only shows his true colors.

BTW if there is any ridiculing here it is of you, not Jesus.

All human being should be treated with respect and allowed to live as they please as long as what they do does not affect the life, liberty or pursuit of happiness of another individual. That being said,
gay marriage has nothing to do with civil rights or human rights. We do not need to re-define the definition of marriage...it is and should always be between a man and a woman. If *** want to set up some kind of partnership so be it but it does not mean that I have to agree with it. What is destroying this country is the breakdown of the family and the secular progressive agenda trying to be jammed down our throats. Society, in order to be free, must have limits and morality...both of which are disappearing.
A let everything go society will not survive.

Hungry1968....here you go AGAIN, from the NEW Testament:

1 Corinthians 6:9:(NIV)

9Do 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

1 Corinthians 6:9:

9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

This is the King James Version simon.

Look up the Hebrew meaning of effeminate, and the Greek meaning.
Have a good day!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The same chapter and verse worded differently in different (recent) versions of the bible

Isn%u2019t it interesting that the bible can be re-interpreted at will, even to the point of %u201Cofficially%u201D creating a new version?

%u201CLogic and religion are mortal enemies%u201D.

Funny too that he only mentions of homosexuality in the bible come from Corinthians 6:9 in THE NEW AMERICAN version.

Isn''t it kind of odd that someone translated the version into the words they wanted specifically banned?

Scary that you people live your lives according to this "translated" version of the book.
