Is this phrase discriminatory?

Jesus Christ called his Father "the only true God." (John 17:3) I believe it is Jehovah's will "that all sorts of people should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth." (1 Timothy 2:4) It is not my intention to insult anyone, and I do not think identifying Jehovah as the only true God should offend you. If there is a true God, then those called gods are really not gods, and worshipping them would only bring harm to their worshipers, IMO. (Isaiah 31:7) That is what I believe based on what the Bible says.
You simply don't seem to understand. Its called respect. I would never say to you that your views are wrong but you are fine with telling me mine are. That is disrespect for my beliefs. And that is what we are talking about here. Beliefs. I have tried to explain and you seem to be unable to get the point. Namaste.

Well saying that homosexuality is what makes that person, THAT person, is a very direct and upfront way of labeling someone. Homosexuality isn't exactly a part of ones being, but a part of that beings behavior.

I disagree. Being Bisexual is who I am. I have been this way for my entire life. Its not a label, its me. Its not my behavior. Did you choose to be either straight or gay? Whichever one you are. No. I can no more deny that I am Bi than I can deny that I have blue eyes.

Actually yes, I chose to be straight after about five years of a homosexual life. Homosexuality is no more a choice than how you choose to do your hair in the morning. Just because you CAN choose to like the same sex doesn't mean you should. There's a reason why gays have a higher depression rate and disease percentage than straights.
