The phrase "former homosexual" sounds like " former asian" or "former bird"

You can change your behavior, but not your race. Your analogy is not valid. He could call preface it by the word "recovering" if you like--as in "recovering alcoholic."

The Christian does not tolerate racism because it is an assault on the sacredness of God's creation. Our unique race is an individual gift from God. In the same way, sexuality within the bounds of God's law is sacred, and homosexuality is an assault upon that what God created.

Mankind did not create marrige, it was a creation of the Lord.

Marraige existed in pre Christian times as a lifelong partnership between a man and a woman and basis of family and disposition of property.

an alcoholic who doesn't drink is still an alcoholic. He doesn't drink to avoid the effects of his alcoholism.

Thanks for confirming the thesis..

Marriage long predated Judeo-Christian monotheism. Romans, Greeks, Hittites, Sumerians, Egyptians et al practiced marriage. Your assertion that Marriage was a covenant of God is only true if you accept their pagan view of God or you dispute their notion of marriage ( remarkably similar to Judeo-Christian views by the way)
