I neither endorse the Bible nor otherwise. It is far above my ability to add or detract. I believe that it tells the truth. But if I did not believe that, it would not make the Bible any less true.
And you have suggested that homosexuality among consenting adults is the moral equivalent of murder.
The Bible has outright said that. I happen to believe it is true in this regard also.
Do you want to stand by that position?
Absolutely.
Consenting adult homosexuals are morally worse than murderers?
Do you honestly believe that?
Of course.
No.[I am not familiar with "Mac the Knife."]
Oh, the shark, dear
Has big teeth, babe,
And he shines them pearly white.
Just a knife, dear
Has Mac Heath, babe
And he keeps it out of sight.
(Forgive all the "dear"s and "babe"s. It's a jazz tune.)
By the way, as I've told you more than once before, if it were just an issue of the private behavior of consenting adults, we might not be having a conversation at all. But part of the disease of SADs is they have to spread it. My objection, from the perspective of this forum, is the public policy issues the SADs insist on raising precisely because they have no interest in keeping the issue private.
Shalom.
Interesting.
You have said from the beginning of the conversation, that consenting adult homosexuals were the moral equivalent of murderers.
I took this to mean that it was the moral nature of the behavior you objected to, and not whether such individuals practiced their behavior privately.
Are you now saying that you have no objection to consenting adult homosexuals, so long as they practice their sexuality privately?
Or are these people still the moral equivalent of murderers and deserving of death, even though they practice their sexuality privately?
