BTW Cowboy you never did answer me before, if sex is simply for reproduction, are you or are you not saying that a married couple cannot have sex once they can no longer bear kids? Sex outside of reproduction would be lust. Lusting for the physical pleasures of sex. That's what I thought. So not only are you denying certain groups of people the pleasure that comes with sex, but already MARRIED couples now too. Nice, real nice that. Why is it so important to have sex outside of reproduction? Why is the physical pleasure that important? Why can't a couple find other things to do to bring passion to their relationships? Why does it have to be sex? Maybe they use it to express love to each other? Ever think of that? Think outside the box dude, it's very freeing there. Even the Bible speaks to the pleasures and joys of sex in a loving relationship. I seriously can't believe you man, your thinking is even more extreme then some other Christians, yet we're the extremists for seeking freedom? |

Yes but why do these pleasures and joy HAVE to come from sex? Why can't they be achieved by doing other romantic fun things together? Why particularly sex? Love can be shared with each other in many many many other ways besides sex. Why would sex be so important? |

It can be just a part of it, but for you to deny them it simply because they cannot reproduce anymore is laughable at best. |

What's major about it is you feel you have the right to say whether someone can or can't do something, just cause "God" says it. I find it very scary that anyone in their right mind would think this way. If a married couple wants to have sex, they have every right to do it, regardless of what your "God" says. |

Yes everyone has the right to do anything they wish to do. That is why we are not to judge one another. They have the right, but there is a reaction to every action. And don't feel people will like the reaction that comes of being homosexual, so I try my best to spread the news and enlighten them. But nevertheless it is up to them to make the choice. And with either decision on that choice, does not change one thing about how I treat anyone. That is their choice, there decision. But again they will have to face the reaction that comes with their action, so I plead to choose wisely. |

Considering that the consequences for others being gay is not the same as it is for the religious, I guess the religious are the only ones who need to worry about it. |

Do you think that being Christian or Islamic (since they are so similar) makes a person overly obsessed with death/reward so that they cannot live life? Or even truly be themselves and genuine? (living life does not mean debauchery either) I feel that the doctrines are stifling to the person even if they don't realize it. Allowing/coercing them to conceal their real true selves behind a false shield of the religion. Not meaning that their true selves are evil as the religions teach. Example: A person who is a part of one of these religions is associated with a gay person. The two of them are very compatible and a great friendship could happen but the religious person cannot fully love and support the gay person in a healthy way due to misgivings taught by the church. (And "saving" or converting this person is not healthy no matter what you have been told" In this case the real person behind the shield would be a true friend and have a life long close relationship with another loving human. The religious shield cannot allow this person to be genuine because of the fear of hell taught by the church. Causing the religious person to be ungenuine in their relationships due to the doctrines of the church in this case causing fear. No we are not obsessed with anything. And sure a straight Christian could be friends with a homosexual. There's nothing wrong with that, they are just friends. The Christian wouldn't be embracing the sexual activities this homosexual does. They are just friends. We help homosexuals, we help murderers, we help priests, we help the hobo down the street. What label one wishes to give another doesn't make any difference. We love everyone just the same, there is not segregation or anything of such. Back to the subject, yeah it would be just fine for a Christian to be friends with a homosexual. We love all regardless of the activities they may choose to do. By love do you mean "showing them the error of their ways"? Or putting the fear of god into them? Like you do daily? How can a religious person even attend the gay pagan wedding to support their friend or sign papers showing support for the gay couple to adopt? How can the religious person spend every day with the gay person watching them love their partner and not say anything derogatory? Hypocrisy? I have a question for you Dragoness, Would you continue to be close friends with your gay friend if you discovered she was also enjoying a sexual relationship with her biological father? What would be the comparison with a natural relationship like homosexuality and a sickness like incest? You'd better believe that kind of logic is spreading. Many horses are waiting to come out of the gate. So many waiting for endorsement. At one time homosexuality was as much a sickness as incest...and now because so many have closed their eyes to the taboo of it... it is now labeled "natural". There are a lot of closet incestuous, beastial, and other participants who are waiting for the day when what they enjoy doing is acceptible as well. What kind of society are we allowing? Is this our children's inheritance? |

I judge as both God and Jesus commanded.I judge to avoid sinful,evil,and destructive people as both God and Jesus commanded.I do not judge before the facts are know I judge after the facts are known.That is why Jesus said "why don't you judge righteously"?That is also why Jesus not only allowed the court process of being found guilty or innocent he spoke about it as a form of justice.
The only people on this planet that do not judge are robots.I am not a robot. |

Jesus said "Judge not less ye be judged". 1 Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. Mk. 4.24 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Cowboy I have gone through this issue with you at least ten times in here and every time I give you bible verses it goes through one ear and out the other.I guess I will have to explain this to you for the 11th time. Jesus was talking about judging people based on appearance,rumors,slander,assumptions,false witness'sand other traits.He was talking about labeling people into a category before even talking to them.He was not talking about judgment of people after the facts were known.He was talking about judging before the facts were known. In Jesus's own words... “Has not Moses given you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. . . . Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.” (John 7:19, 24) Cowboy are you saying Jesus is a liar?Anyone can see this bible verse for what it is.Don't judge by appearance but by peoples actions. Jesus told the Pharisees, “You serpents, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell?” (Matt. 23:23) Is this not judging?Is Jesus a hypocrite?Is not Jesus judging by their actions? What about John the baptist.Did he not yell and scream at King herold and his wife and accuse her of adultery?Is that not judging? Matt. 14:3-4) Yet what did Jesus say about John the baptist? Jesus said of him, “Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist” (Matt. 11:11) So not only did Jesus tell us to judge righteously so did his apostles... In Luke 17:3 He commanded us to rebuke a trespassing brother: “If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.” In 1 Timothy 5:20 he says, “Those who continue in sin, rebuke in the presence of all, so that the rest also may be fearful of sinning.” In Titus 2:15 he tells Titus, “These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.” In 2 Tim. 4:2 he tells Timothy to “reprove, rebuke, exhort.” In 1 Thess. 5:14 he says to “admonish the unruly.” In Rom. 15:14 he tells the Roman church that they are “able to admonish one another.” In Eph. 5:11 he tells the church, “Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.” Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases? Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, then, matters pertaining to this life! So if you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who have no standing in the church? I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no one among you wise enough to settle a dispute between the brothers, but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers? (1 Cor. 6:2-6) “tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” (Matt. 18:17-18) It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is not tolerated even among pagans, for a man has his father’s wife. And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you. For though absent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing. When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. (1 Cor. 5:1-5) If we truly did not judge we would not be Christians but Atheists.Because the entire bible talks about who we should and should not associate with. |
