What difference does it make if he’s 23 and a grown man?

If he’s heading for a path of self-destruction, it behooves those who love him to try to save him from it.

I don’t see any of you guys who are criticizing his parents for *interfering* criticizing the homosexual who tried to influence him towards homosexuality. The gay who was trying to turn him towards homosexuality was also trying to influence a 23 year old grown man who could make his own decisions. Where’s the condemnation of them?

If I saw my son, who I carried for 9 months, bore, and raised heading in that direction, no way would I just sit back and let it happen without a fight, age notwithstanding.

If someone saw another drowning, they would say, *He’s an adult, let him learn to swim*, they’d try to save him.

There was a student at a local college who committed suicide over his gay lifestyle a while back because he couldn’t reconcile his lifestyle with his beliefs. I can’t imagine the torment that one would be going through to think that taking one’s life knowing what the Bible says about homosexuality, is the better option.

I can only hope that he really, truly knew Christ because he’s certainly no better off otherwise.

That’s what these parents are trying to prevent in rescuing their son from this lifestyle.

MANY of them become alcoholics/substance abusers.

What are you talking about!?

I didn't criticize his parents. I was criticizing the juvenile mindset of his gay friend, who apparently believes that a 23-year-old man should have his parents pay for his car without conditions.

The problem is those critical of his parents and what they are trying to do, don't believe in Christ. The idea that someone can step away from the destructive “gay” lifestyle threatens them. They mock God through their ridiculous and ignorant remarks.

What is also threatening and maddening to those that are obnoxious on this thread, is that Exodus International has had major success stories of “gays” that have permanently left the destructive “gay” lifestyle. Some don't want to hear this or accept this. They don't have the stones or belief in God to over come this disturbing and perverted lifestyle.

Thanks for trying though ... maybe some closet “gays” on this thread might find help by stealthily looking over the website - Exodus International. http://www.exodus-international.org/ You are so right, netmom, age is not an issue. The issue is caring about the person. Many Christians I know would gladly give their life for their country, family and other loved ones. For some here, that's a quaint concept. They don't relate to it, so they MOCK concern and love that others show. It's a pity - perhaps they don't have that in their life and why they MOCK God and family that care about their son. What's also a pity is that Christianity is free. The price has been paid and still they reject Him.
