IMHO homosexuality is a behavior like alcoholism. But then, I do not know

But you should know as the Lord is very clear about it.

Do you also include pedahilia and beastiality in the mix as comparable to alcoholism...where is the line drawn in your opinion?

When we as Christians stop calling sinful actions against God "behavior" or "diseases"...then we just might one day lead those who practice these sins to repent and find In Christ the forgiveness they need. As long as we excuse the actions for something other than what they are in God's eyes.. these people will have no hope....and most will die in their sin.

That is a good point. I do equate beastiality pedaphilia and homosexuality in the same boat. I should have called it sinful behavior. I was an alcoholic that was saved by God's grace. My behavior comments were more about how homosexuals think they are a minority like African Americans.

then we just might one day lead those who practice these sins to repent and find In Christ the forgiveness they need.

Do we do this work? I sort of rest and let the Holy Spirit do it.

I agree it is our sin when we enable sinful behavior in others and we need to repent.
