You still did not answer the question. Did you serve? If you didn’t why do you think you should have the right to say having queers in the military is a trivial matter?
Please don't misunderstand me... I'm on your side.
I never claimed (nor would I ever claim) that having queers in the military is a trivial matter. As a bible-believing Christian I agree with Romans 1:18-32, which makes it clear that homosexual conduct is the fruit of a depraved mind: "...their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened," so it says in Romans 1:20. For this reason, "Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another," so it says in Romans 1:24.
I'm opposed to gays in the military. I'm opposed to gays period, just like I'm opposed to child molesters and Islamofascists.
What I had asked about discussing wasn't the queers themselves... my opinion is clear on that... but the policy. As Jim Robinson has made his wishes clear on that score, I will respect his wishes as I respect him, and not discuss it further.
I will say that the true fix for this problem, if you want to fix it well and for good, is found right there in Romans. Turn the hearts of the people back toward the Lord, and this problem goes right on away, along with a hundred others.
And no, I have not served in the military, though I have the utmost respect for those who have. It's a life of self-sacrifice, sometimes to the bitter end.
