What a provactive post.
No "organized" religion, that I know of accepts homosexuality. Not Christians, nor Jews, nor (particurlaly) Islam. That would certainly includes the Buha'i faith.
We (those of us who are gay) are people whom were given a different path in life to follow. We fall...
If one has "not found oneself in life", regarding (their) religious beliefs, then, it may well be time to "shop around".
I think that we all want to find that religion which comforts us the most --- and offers the most in (that particular religion's) beliefs, as would be offered to us.
It...
There is much more evidence in this world of an "evil" supreme being, than in a "kind and loving God"
Take airplane accidents, which kill many; how about "drive-by gang killers'? How about other disasters, which take the lives of the innocent? How about rape and murder of innocent children...
There is nothing wrong with celebrating Chirstmas, on Dec 25th, as most of us know it.
The only problem is that most classical historians are in disagreement as to just when Christ was born. That will, forever, remain an unanswered question.
However, cling to Christmas day, as you and I know...
Excuse me? T thought this was a froum, in which each person is allowed to express his or her opinions. Now, I get an e-mail from our dear "Reverend Rick" in which my post was disallowed?
I see. Becuase I choose to take issue with the "good" "Reverend", it is I whom (he) chose to castigate...
Dear Dallas: Thank you for providing the most elucidative answer to this post.
Proselytism is uncalled for and, at once, disrespectul.
One's faith belongs to that person and should not be interfered with. Proselytism belongs to those who call for others to "be just like they". Ridiculous.
I...
Dear Dallas: I find that your answer to this post is both, at once, provacative and insightful, and best answers the post.
IMO, each peson who has "faith" should respect (their) faith and NOT proselytize his or her beliefs upon another, as (they) may well have their own faith. This is both...
And, by the way, "CORKSREW" (how appropriate) --- I do not appreicate your unarticulate and disrespectful reply:
"Holy Ignorance Batman!!! Thanks for the step-in Yourhopeboundheart. Jimdand, I hope for the sake of sanity you have not read anything I have posted; for if you did, I would have to...
Well --- I certainly didn't mean to "ruffle" feathers in my post. I know it was "harsh". But I simply wanted to impart that homosexuality is NOT a "choice". That was my ONLY agenda.
I propbably mentioned in my post (and I'm not going to review it) that being gay is NOT a choice, or a...
Who is responsible for the death of Jesus?
Most classical historians agree that it is Jesus, himself, who is responsible for his own death.
Although he fell at odds with the Court of Jewish law in the Great Temple of Jerusalem and was subsequently arrested by Jewish soldiers in Judea, it was...
Well, Corkscrew: You've read the replies.
In my opinion, you have one of the finest minds of the 15th Century. Why not stay there, where you belong?
Homosexuality ---- a "choice" --- excuse me? You're talking about "choice" as though it's a life-style. Going to Vegas and gambling --- that's...
