I'm not hiding anything, I'm asking you questions.

Now: I showed you the contradiction in your position and asked you how you resolve that for yourself.

I also asked you several other questions which you haven't answered.

If you aren't hiding anything, what's stopping you from addressing those directly?

You appear to have no intention of changing being judgemental towards others. You might as well be gay.

so me stating that the word of God says homosexuality is a sin makes me judgemental...how??...:)

was Jesus or Paul or any of the disciples judgemental when they told people to turn from sin...:)

In fact he is. Thank you so much for finally taking notice of that. By the way, it is not only the accused who will stand before God in judgement, but also their accusers.

you are avoiding the question.
how does homosexuality infringe disregard or undermine you? i could could care less about god :facepalm:
btw,
the title of this thread isn't
how should god treat homosexuals
its
how should the christian church treat homosexuals....

easy answer really, the way christians would like to be treated by any fellow human being...with respect

as a follower of christ or one who is a part of the church, what credit is it to you if you only respect those that respect you?
luke 6.

Here it is again:

Quagmire said:
You need to read back through our conversation then. It's pretty obvious that you made no objections when I suggested (twice) that you're personal objection to homosexuals most likely stems from your own unacknowledged identification with that very group.

That being the case, and since now you say that being gay is a sin whether you hide it or not, how can you still claim to be "right with God"?


See the contradiction in all this?

I even said this afterwords:

Look, if I misunderstood what you were getting at, please feel free to clarify. But if you look back through our conversation I think you'll understand why most people would interpret what you were saying the same way I did.

Now, instead of addressing any of this, or offering any clarifications as I requested, you're just giving a lot of evasive non-answers like these:

just because you claimed something that makes you feel less threathened does not make it so...:)

because you have no arguement....:)

If I didn't already think you were hiding something, I'd think you were hiding something.
