"Jesus was a compassionatie, super-intelligent gay man"

Sadly the Christian church has missed another opportunity to mend the damage done to relations with the homosexual community.

A major guy icon confirms Christ as loving, compassionate, forgiving and that he died on the cross for us all and the only response we have is not to affirm what he got right but to focus solely on the statement of his sexuality which quite frankly is completely irrelevant as Jesus' celibacy kinda turns sexuality into a mute point!

If by mending one expects a pat on the back and a license for marriage...

Mutation and sin go hand and hand...

Is that your way of saying "yes"?

If that's the case, is it possible that original sin has mutated so much that the "remedy" of Jesus' sacrifice is no longer effective against it, in the same way that a vaccine can become ineffective when a virus mutates beyond a certain point?

JESUS is GOD doing HIS FATHER's work. That work is perfect. It cannot become without affect.

There would be no "mutations" without sin. The term "mutation" means to wander off course --- to go astray. Variety is not "mutation.

A mutation is defined as any alteration in the DNA sequence, biologists use the term "single nucleotide polymorphism" (SNP) to refer to a single base pair alteration that is common in the population. Specifically, a polymorphism is any genetic location at which at least two different sequences are found, with each sequence present in at least 1% of the population. Note that the term "polymorphism" is generally used to refer to a normal variation, or one that does not directly cause disease. Moreover, the cutoff of at least 1% prevalence for a variation to be classified as a polymorphism is somewhat arbitrary; if the frequency is lower than this, the allele is typically regarded as a mutation (Twyman, 2003).

DNA in any cell can be altered by any number of factors, including environmental influences, certain chemicals, spontaneous mutations, and errors that occur during the process of replication. Cellular biologist have yet to find a "sin" gene that causes spontaneous errors, or errors in replication.

Jesus never existed, gay or otherwise, although the stories in the NT of him traveling with 12 men for 3 years may give one pause about a couple of things, - one - was he gay, and maybe more importantly, why couldn't a woman be a disciple?

What is the Bible said:
Where do you get that? Just curious....

Paul seemed to be so infatuated with the evils of passion he could not control, why did he not take his own advice and temper that passion in marriage? He wrote that marriage was only acceptable, but not an ideal, way of life. Still marriage never seemed to be an acceptable to him in his own struggles with passion.

  • "For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion" (1 Cor. 7:9)
  • Widows and the unmarried should "remain single as I do" (1 Cor. 7:8)
  • A primary purpose of sex in marriage was to keep Satan from tempting people "through lack of self-control" (1 Cor. 7:5).
  • He seemed to have a negative attitude towards women, "it is well for a man not to touch a woman" (1 Cor. 7:1).
  • "You know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first; and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus" (Gal. 4:13).
  • "I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members” (Romans 7:23)
That and his overt homophobia seem to point to a self-hatred.
Now this is not proof of anything, but it makes me wonder......

You are all sick. Mental ignorance is not inherited, so you can't blame your parents for your lack of accurate knowledge. Especially about Jesus or his father God, who he also called his God.

Scriptural comprehension is not the possession of all men, neither is faith.
