    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    As I previously stated, in many Middle Eastern countries, pre-marital sex is forbidden. Therefore, heterosexual men frequently engage in sexual relations with boys or young adult males--most of whom are also heterosexual.

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    So, today's Bibles are telling Christian readers that the opinions and prejudices of the translators are the modern-day "word of God" because THEY object to homosexuality and THEY believe that homosexuals should be sentenced to death. Not a very convincing argument, in my opinion.

    007 Trump

    And Trump certainly seems to be hell bent on establishing himself as King in this country. If you think that it is horrible that the monarchy is based on who one's daddy/mummy was or is, all you need to do is to look at how Trump has made his presidency a "family matter" with Ivanka and Jared...

    007 Trump

    That was hilarious, and I certainly didn't see it as anything other than a great satirical piece mocking the great orange doofus.

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    The manner in which modern translations have stated things is not particularly relevant, since what you quoted reflects the current-day agenda of hatred for homosexuals. You need to consider how things were viewed at the time those scriptures were written, and the activities engaged in to this...

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    The thing is, though, that the "homosexual behavior" was almost exclusively engaged in by heterosexuals, and it still is today.

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    They should interpret them by relating them to the cultural times and mores when they were written, and not take something written several thousand years ago that referred to same-sex relations among heterosexuals and twist it to try to support an anti-LGBT agenda.

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    No, it does NOT say that homosexual relationships are sinful. Nowhere does it mention homosexuality. You also need to consider the culture at the time those scriptures were written, and, actually, much of those cultural activities are still in practice today in Middle Eastern countries...

    Christians and Jews Who Sanction Homosexual Sex

    Considering the fact that homosexuality is just as normal as heterosexuality, I would say that your priest is absolutely correct and is not "dancing around" anything. Unless, of course, you consider it to be "dancing around" if he stated that, although the Bible condemns promiscuous sexual...

    How Did 2008 Affect You?

    Lost quite a bit of my 401K, and since I was close to retirement (been retired since 2014) it was pretty scary. Fortunately, I was always fairly conservative as far as my fund choices were concerned, so I didn't do as badly as some people, but it still hurt. Now working part-time to fill in...

    Oh, Alrighty then, Trump just misspoke

    Barely affected prices? Well, I suppose that's a matter of opinion, and it will take awhile before the price hikes to manufacturers "trickle down" to consumers, but I work part-time for a small manufacturer near home that uses steel for its products. All prices are going up on their products...

    Oh, Alrighty then, Trump just misspoke

    Doubtful. What it appears to be are attempts from dictators to stroke Trump's ego so that he lessens sanctions against them and so that he alienates our allies, and Trump seems quite happy to go along with them. He is certainly not the brightest bulb in the pack despite his bragging about what...

    Oh, Alrighty then, Trump just misspoke

    Considering the entire context of Trump's comments, it is apparent that he did not misspeak. What he said in Helsinki is exactly what he meant. His handlers made him retract that one word, which did not, however, change the context at all. It was also interesting to note that when Putin was...

    Oh, Alrighty then, Trump just misspoke

    Quite a few Republicans spoke out about how horrible that press conference was, but I wonder if they will just forget the whole thing in a day or two and let the Orange Pumpkin continue to roll along without protest.

    The New System

    Haven't you been following the thread? It's the magical fairies! They can cause words to appear without a computing device (although they do really seem to like the nectar I serve them through that pop-out plate holder on my computer.)

    Parents on their way to prison for not providing medical care for child.

    JWs tell those of other religions to examine what their religion does. Examine its history. Examine what the members of that religious group do. But when it comes to the JW organization, all we hear is that JWs should not examine anything. JWs should just put up with all of the...

    Parents on their way to prison for not providing medical care for child.

    LOL The JW religion has been around for over a hundred years, with all of its various leaders and groups of leaders declaring that they are the only "channel used by God" and they are the Faithful and Discreet Slave spoken of in scriptures. All of these men have appointed themselves without...

    Parents on their way to prison for not providing medical care for child.

    One simple question...how do you know for a fact that the current GB WERE appointed by Jehovah? Give us the verified proof.

    The New System

    Shouldn't take too long? Really? As of July of this year, there are 7.6 billion people on the earth. There are around 7 million JWs, many of whom won't make it into the New System. There will also be, I'm sure, collateral damage with millions of animals being killed, what with fire balls...

    The New System

    Oh, thank you...thank you. I was so afraid that I might have been doing something silly! :eek: I'm glad, too, that you reassured me about the smoke thingy. That was becoming just a tad worrisome, but now I know it's all good!
