It's not that we are saying one is fine and one isn't, both are equally disgusting before God. We don't want it being accepted as a society because it will just further perpetuate moral degredation in our society as a whole
It does nto matter if homosexuality in general is a choice or not, The fact is that there ARE people who CHOOSE to be homosexual. and yes whenever there is a "trend" set by someone who is in power or have some sort of following. People will take thier ques from them. It happens. Look at Anne Heche, clear example of choosing to be gay. she says she is and then she isn't.
because of the "trend" attitude of society. when somethign new and accepted comes along people are more inclined to "try it out". because people don't think for themselves, they take Ques from people they admire. and it's a shame, but it's a fact.
Beyond how wrong and immoral this stance is did I miss the whole explanation for how this ideology gels with:
1/10th Human said:Also (and going back to the LDS Church specifically), the 11th Article of Faith is as follows:
"We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."
I mean you could follow Lord So and So who preaches to be yourself, love when you can and strive for moral happiness. That is to say So and So doesn't actually say don't be gay.
Now the followers of Lord So and So have to share their town with this quoted and aptly named Mad Hatter who says Bah Gay People and Enough with the witches... Conform to Mormon God Morality or we will legally force the issue. Really?
Way to be american buddy. Way to be divisive. Your entire understanding of Bi and Gay Sexuality is so twisted up in your religion that you are officially more mormon than american. Does that pose a problem for you or do you think my assessment is wrong?
On a side note: To my knowledge most people think god is a dude because he never forbade the lying of women with women... its just the men with men bit he took issue with.... Does the mormon official books forbid women lying with women?
Just thinking about it... In the good old days of Joey Smith the dude married women who already had husbands... Whats that cable show where there is like 3 wives married to 1 dude... Sure not sanctioned mormonism today... but It was in the past yes? So all these chicks hanging out and not working because thats just what all the wives do I guess... Raise kids... cook.... sigh.... I could be wrong I saw like one episode... Big Love. Hah I remembered... Anyways... so Dude has to go to work... Maybe he is really into his new asian wife... their third... (This is hypothetical... I dont follow the show) So the other two wives which turn out to be the Girl from Lie to me and Cuddy from house might have the opportunity and desire with a little wine to accidentally hook up... I mean technically their wives in law so isnt that permitted? And maybe husband wanders in... Wait one sec.... What state in the US consumes the most pornography?
Oh...
Ok back on track... mad hatter here is a trans-humanist... Wikipedia: Transhumanism is an international intellectual and cultural movement supporting the use of science and technology to improve human mental and physical characteristics and capacities.
So Madhatter would you support using Science and Technology to engineer humans that could only be heterosexual?
