The membership increases by over 300 million in 25+ years Reuters is focusing on this degenerate. "Values" gap indeed.
Dueteronomy 22 does not concern itself with sexual prohibitions - it is about dealing fairly with others. If you appreciate context, then you must admit my argument is strengthened by consideration thereof.
But there is Breast cancer....
I simply don't think they considered female homosexuality to be sex at all. There is no evidence to support the view that they share our modern conception of it; that there are many obvious places to mention it, and they are not mentioned, but the male version is specifically mentioned, supports this conclusion.
Sounds like something God would allow then...
Breast cancer strikes married women as well, and also unmarried non-homosexual women. It doesn't, to my knowledge, prefer homosexual women over others. Compare this to AIDS which infects homosexual men at something like 100 times the rate it affects normal men. Moreover, we haven't yet figured out what triggers breast cancer, so drawing any conclusion based on a small difference is dubious; whereas the means of transmission of HIV and the factors that facilitate it are well known and unmistakably attributable to sodomites.
I'm not implying that there is any virtue to female homosexuality. There are many evil acts that are not specifically forbidden. I am saying is that it is of virtually no importance, and the language of the Bible reflects that.
What does 'thou shall not enjoy the fruit of thine own body' mean then?
Yes, I agree, but it has to be real repentance. IE. no more talk about abortion, being gy, or supporting euthanasia. The trouble here is people often talk the talk but do not walk the walk. Please, let's not have a revolving door here.
Ping to self.
Let me ask you this then...
If God were to give the law today, would female homosexuality be forbidden?
Whould not, "thou shall not lie with thy neigbors wife apply equally to the female reader? The places where man in general are used, or "you"?
Thou means you the reader. So how could a woman reader have a lesbian relationship? Is the daughter of the neighbor not forbidden to lie with out of wedlock?
Its all about seeking both society's and the Vatican's imprimatur of their sins.
Agreed. I don't know why anyone would not be sincere though, God isn't fooled, and knows what's in the heart. Jesus would have allowed Judas to repent. If the sinner can't admit the sin, then they will never come back through the door.
What....you didn't like my OT joke?
I don't know what Deuteronomy you're reading but it's about misrepresenting virginity,adultery, rape and incest...usually with the result of a good stoning.
Instead of ignoring the fact transsexualism is the same pathology of homosexuality, why don't you ask your Rabbi if Deut 22:5 isn't about sexual context.
Or just remain closed eyed to it, I don't really care anymore.
The example jesus gave was that he used overwhelming love and kindness along with forgiveness to showman the error of his ways, and to bring people to salvation. He saved more souls that way. The heritic drives away and divides people, and often condems his own.
Loved it.
