Eric,
Sweet, pretty kitty. If Lizzie sees her like that, she may back off a little.
Remarkable resemblance.
Well, he came close enough for many others to see it the same way I did - as supportive of something other than concluding it is anything but a choice or by extension a bad one (in this case particularly - a sin).
Either you are conservative or you aren’t - social mores included.
I have some respect for you and have read many of your posts. I’m not trying to get into an argument with you about this, just trying to explain why I said what I did (apparently not to your satisfaction). We can agree to disagree if you prefer...
I have no problem with you, and I can understand how others can come to the same conclusion that you did. He disagrees that homosexuality is a choice or a sin. I believe that the act of homosexuality IS a sin.
I do not believe that homosexual attraction is a choice.
I did not make a choice to be straight, I just am. I am no psychologist so I am assuming that it’s the same for everyone, and yes I know what it means to “assume.” I guess since I made no choice, I am just straight....I figured it was the same for everyone else.
To this day I have never met a gay person (and I’ve met damned few) that chose their attraction. They DID however choose to engage in sinful acts. IMO and only my opinion, having those attractions and not acting upon them does not make one straight, it makes them celibate.
yeah, I can see your side of it based on your experience. Regardless, it’s been a good discussion, thanks.
Let's Get this thread off the Homosex. discussion and onto some Links for Herman Cain Name Recognition Buttons, Bumper Stickers, etc.
