We know that Mormon Bishop Mitt Romney has promoted it for 20 years as a politician, and the Mormon church supports it and has let them be members for some time now.

And then some...

Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men
from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them
."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

Doonesbury Cartoon for Feb/08/2013

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.


Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.



2 Peter 2

1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.
Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.



But there IS hope!!!

1 Corinthians 6:9-11

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
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.


If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...

It is actually defined both broadly and narrowly, so I think the best thing is to qualify what is meant by chaste. It always means no sexual relations outside of marriage, but is often used to mean celibacy.

However, I see “chaste homosexual” as an oxymoron. Unless you buy into the argument that people are born homosexual, in the same way one is born male or female, homosexual describes an act and a conscious choice, not a state of being.

What makes you so sure their claims are legit? I always exercise a healthy skepticism for victim claims that come decades after the fact. And the timing of their emergence doesn’t strike you as suspicious, right after the BSA announcement continuing to disavow homosexual leadership that angered the agendized homosexual left ? Sorry but you’re wrong. Homosexuals have never been allowed to serve as Scout Leaders. If a few well closeted ones slipped through that’s not BSA’s fault nor the LDS Church’s fault. If you’re looking for homosexuals in this, it’s the people behind this suspiciously timed lawsuit, a concoction they no doubt had waiting in the wings to discredit two organizations gays despise, in the event of an adverse decision to the homosexual agenda from the BSA.

Actually, that is not what the BSA decided. The BSA continued the ban on gay Scout leaders, but allow gay boys to be a part of Scouting so long as they adhere to standards of moral behavior. Not allowing gay Scout leaders was by far the biggest concern so predatory types couldn't get in there and go after defenseless kids. Gay boys are a far lesser concern. Most will keep their sexuality to themselves for fear of being made fun of, so there is little danger from them. It is not ununsual for young teen boys to be confused about sexuality at that age. Most who are grow out of it. Why penalize them for their hormones messing with their brains and emotions? Perhaps being a part of Scouting will help them find direction.
