I think all fornication is sin. Homosexuality is called an abomination in the Bible.

More to the point of my post however is that you can find a Homosexual Pride Day, and a Homosexual Pride Parade and the Homosexual movement has its own lobby.

The Bible condemns fornication. All sex outside of marriage is a sin. This country is sex obsessed and fornication of all kinds has become rampant. It is all sin and many people love to wallow in sin without remorse which is utterly shameful.

One very large reason that homosexuality has to be openly condemned as sin is that it is being openly and aggressively promoted in open rebellion toward God. This sin is promoted with its own days (set aside specifically to promote pride in this sin), with its own parades (marching to celebrate and flaunt this sin in order to make people more accepting of this sin), and this sin has its own lobby (working to get politicians and judges to force people to ignore this sin).

If you are seeking a deep theological discussion, I am willing. Your question, I suppose, would then be, does the Bible say some activity is worse than others, or is it possible that some sins are worse than other sins?

I agree. I can't help but think that without heterosexual fornication becoming so prevalent, homosexual fornication would have stayed in the closet as well. I could be wrong of course, it just seems like 2 sides of the same coin to me.

I'm not sure if I'm up to holding up my end of the discussion this week (lots of other things going on), but I can try, and I think it would be an interesting discussion. I'm not sure the Bible is entirely clear on the matter, at least in the New Testament. At times It seems to suggest that there is a heirarchy, and at other times that sin of any sort leads to death.
