GLSEN is a recent creation by Kevin Jennings, the SIECUS org has been around for quite some time.

Thank you. Connections. Evil attracts evil; and they’re driven. Absolutely driven.

You can't be a genuine Christian *and* a “practicing” homosexual.

Because all of the straight Christians are not sinning?

Since God has condemned homosexuality in every scripture in every monotheist religion and some that aren’t, a person who willfully continues, without repentence or the desire to change, in homosexual behavior, such a person cannot be a follower of any religion in truth.

This also applies to people who willfully and without any attempt at repentence continue in other forbidden behaviors. But with man/woman sex for instance, there is the option of marriage; with same sex behavior, there is no way to sanctify it.

All I meant, Little J, is that everyone is sinning at something. It seems that people think their own sins are of a higher caliber around here. I am so uninterested in condemning other people’s sex sins.

I understand I think, Yaelle - I used to be very live and let live.

But what I cannot stand is the government forcing immorality on people via legislation and judicial decisions. It’s the agenda I loathe, not the individuals, who need help and treatment.

If promiscuity were not subsidized via welfare, within ten years society would be quite different. Unwed mothers used to be rare, and they could easily be rare again.

Civilizations are based on stable families; and when families get broken en masse, the children go feral or mentally ill, and then huge segments of society are just broken. We see that now.

It’s a huge tragedy.

Breaks my heart.

2 Peter 3:9 doesn't say God wants no one to perish but all to be saved. It says God wants no one to perish but all to repent.

Yes indeed. Heart felt repentence and the begging of forgiveness which comes from that sorrow are essential. And evidence of true repentence is a change of heart, and a changed life.

5Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I [am] the LORD.

6None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover [their] nakedness: I [am] the LORD.

7The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she [is] thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

8The nakedness of thy father’s wife shalt thou not uncover: it [is] thy father’s nakedness.

9The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, [whether she be] born at home, or born abroad, [even] their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.

10The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or of thy daughter’s daughter, [even] their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs [is] thine own nakedness.

11The nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, begotten of thy father, she [is] thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

12Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: she [is] thy father’s near kinswoman.

13Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: for she [is] thy mother’s near kinswoman.

14Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she [is] thine aunt.

15Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she [is] thy son’s wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

16Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it [is] thy brother’s nakedness.

17Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness; [for] they [are] her near kinswomen: it [is] wickedness.

18Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex [her], to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life [time].

19Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.

20Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour’s wife, to defile thyself with her.

21And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I [am] the LORD.

22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.

23Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.
Leviticus Chapter 18, 5-23.

The Lord prohibits a lot of things, with good reason. And not just in the Old Testament:
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
-Romans 26-28

The fact is that the Lord called this particular sin an abomination. The reason it is a sin is that it puts man’s judgment about this particular matter above God’s, which makes it more grievous (most sins are often against other people- lying, stealing, etc.) God wanted us to be male and female- to live as He directed. It is more important to do God’s will than man’s.... Apostasy is the result of accomodating this evil....

Not exact. Not all Christians are evangelical.

There’s still the Mainline Protestants. They’ll probably keep listening to her stuff.

Anyway I don’t understand why she had to make a ruckus. If you don’t want people to comment on your private life, don’t expose it.

Shouldn’t that be “without a bang”?

Jennifer Knapp is one of my absolute favorite singers. I have her greatest hits cd. Her lyrics for those who may not be familiar with her (which is probably most people-she has a niche audience) are really deep and really confessional. I gather this lesbian issue is something that she’s struggled with for some time and she just gave into it. Those of us christians who have srturggled with besetting sins can relate to her. I pray that their might be someone in her life who can speak Biblical truth to her and that God would draw her unto Him. She was on Larry King tonight (who probably knows nothing about Knapp’s music) and its clear that some gay activists have coached her. She keeps saying if you eat shellfish you cant say homosexuality is a sin. I love this womans music I hope that someday she “lays it down” at the cross.
