Was just having that conversation with my daughters and wife at the dinner table! Question in History class was “Is human nature basically good or basically bad?”
While most of the people that our family comes into contact are generally good people (including me I would like to think), deep down we are all touched by sin. And while my belief in Christ and the social constructs and laws keep me from acting on my lustful or vengeful thoughts, they are still sin. It seemed odd to me to hear a homosexual talk about knowing Christ and not acting on his “natural” desires - but in thinking of the many things that I don't act on it makes sense.
And of course the ultimate goal I suppose is to not even have those sinful thoughts.
What makes a homosexual a homosexual is acting on it and having homosexual sex, other wise he is not a homosexual.
Good response, I agree, if it were not for Christ, God only knows how I would keep my desires in check. I honestly don't know what anyone, who does not have Christ as their Lord and Savior, has to live for.
