Is it wrong to advocate homosexuality as a sin?

[Storm]

I've explained why the sexual union between a man and a woman in the covenant of marriage is so valuable to God.

Irrelevant.

But I don't expect people who put their desires before God and everyone else to understand that. They'll simply have to find out what God means when they die. End of story.

Proselytizing again.

 

[Carico]

Irrelevant.


Proselytizing again.

I forgot, I'm not supposed to warn you about hell so you can try to avoid going there. Again, I'll try not to care about your eternal soul. But it's getting easier and easier to do that here since no one else cares about people's souls as well. So eventually I'll fit right in.

Whatever, troll.

Sweet! So, you mean soon you'll stop telling other what horrible people they are and condemning them to hell because of some nonsense you read in a really old book...er...I mean "caring about others' souls" (since that's what you call it)? Sounds good to me. When does this start?

Oh, I won't lie and claim that everyone is a sinless god even though that's what the guilty want to hear. But I won't let you know what will happen to you. I'll simply let you pretend that you can determine what happens to you after you die. After all, illusion is the name of the game in the secular world.

Oh, for sure, I dont know why gay people are gay, because Im not Gay! But that is just the impression that wome TV shows, and movies cast on gay people.

Heh... your user info says you're from Colorado. You should probably know that my main impression of people from Colorado is from South Park.

I would like to point out some things about our new friend, Carico. Carico is a sincere, devout, consistent, heartfelt Christian. I will leave all of you to draw your own conclusions about her character, her capacity for kindness, compassion, honesty, humility, courtesy, tolerance and respect for others. I submit that there is a direct relationship between these two facts.

 

[Autodidact]

So, Carico, Rev. Phelps? Your views?

Glad to hear you'll stop "prophesying", which, of course, is code for telling others some silliness you learned from your parents and a book.

Yes, I know you're from Denver, but you're only one person.

There's Kenny, Stan, Kyle and Cartman on the one side and you on the other... you're in there, but you're still only 20% of my sample, which I can only assume is representative of Colorado as a whole.

Anyhow, I was just trying to point out that we shouldn't base our impressions of reality on what we see in prime-time TV. Will and Grace is no more representative of all LGBT people than CSI is representative of actual cops or South Park is representative of Colorado.

With one exception: Cleveland does rock just as hard as the Drew Carey Show claims.

I've lived in both the Denver area and Colorado Springs. Although, I'm not sure whether knowing that would change your South Park impression, or simply reinforce it.

There's Kenny, Stan, Kyle and Cartman and Sunstone on the one side and you on the other... you're in there, but you're still only 16.7% of my sample, which I can only assume is representative of Colorado as a whole.

I fixed it for you.

You have the gift of prophecy?

If I predict that Carico will one day be banned, does that make me a prophet too?

I don't think the measure of a prophet is how factually accurate their prophecies are, but how skillful they are at manipulating gullible people. Obviously, in this case, you're simply applying common sense, but there are multitudes out there for whom applying common sense is a miraculous ability.

 

[Trey of Diamonds]

I'll try not to care about your eternal soul.

You know, if I thought you truly cared about my eternal soul my thoughts about you would be very different. But I don't think you care. I think you love the idea that all of us will burn in hell. You get a smug feeling of self righteousness and superiority just thinking of all us sinners being eternally punished for daring to disagree with you, one of Gods own messengers.

Now all of us, we also enjoy the idea of what you will find in the afterlife but at least we don't think it will involve suffering. Shock and anger on your part probably but not suffering. Most of us would love to be there just to see the look on your face.

So your saying all the prophets moved into retail?

 

[Trey of Diamonds]

Of course they are, everyone is hot in hell. I can't wait to get there. Anyone know when tickets go on sale?

:slap:

Dat's from Autodidact.

Retail, used-car sales, astrology, televangelism, pimping, etc.

 

[keithnurse]

Not that I doubt it, but can you point me to a specific post?

The specific posts that immediately come to mind are in the thread "genocide in 1st Samuel 15:2-3 go to that thread and read the exchange between me and Carico.
