Norman: Hi InfiniteZero, I am against homosexuality, however, I am so sorry that your family treated and it looks like they are still degrading you. I would never dis-associate with anyone in my family if they told me that they were a homosexual, never, I would still love them with all my heart and defend them and protect them. Again, I am so sorry that you are going thru this.
We all have the desire to guard and protect something or someone we care for, with every available means—to be jealous for them (not of them). This is the sense in which Paul was jealous for the Corinthians, and it is the type of jealousy God feels for His own children as well.
Thanks for the concern.
If God is jealous for His people then that means there must be something as powerful or nearly as powerful as God capable of threatening him. Is sin and darkness a greater force than God? .
? There is no real evidence so it comes down to the war of interpretation and philosophy. The Cartesian model versus the Aristotelian model, etc. Rob Bell versus Gagnon. Catholicism versus Episcopalian.
First off anyone having sex whether gay or straight is recommended to seek routine medical checks. Having gay sex does not magically create a disease out of ****ing nowhere.Hi Infinite , not my favourite subject , but for what it`s worth these are my thoughts.
Someone here posted that he felt that if a sexual act was unnatural then it couldn`t be God`s will. I agreed with that in as much as it seemed clear to me that a active homosexual lifestyle almost inevitably involves really unusual activities which are very unhealthy . Unless you were health checked after every encounter then you were very liable to be infected with any one ,or more, of a number of diseases .
Regarding the gay gene or DNA inclination , modern research seems to exclude that possibility and puts it down to choice.
EG in the LGBT community what do bi-sexuals have in their DNA ?
Just the same as people choose to be celibate if they are not married, presumably they just don`t keep thinking about something they don`t have, and get on with their life, enjoying what they do have .
You have an erroneous view of the lifestyle of most gays. Many are monogamous. Many are not sleeping with partner after partner, as you intimate. What evidence do you have that being lesbian is unhealthy? Do you even know what a gay lifestyle is? Do you think we all walk around panty-waisted with our hands held in the cliche gay fashion, wearing gaudy clothing and looking for parades to march in? If so, you are stereotyping and its insulting in the extreme. I have never had an STD in my life and at this point, I am rather up there is years. And as for genetic evidence, it is still in the infancy stage but I will refer you to this:Hi Infinite , not my favourite subject , but for what it`s worth these are my thoughts.

You are erroneously assuming that all gays are promiscuous. Such is not the case. Some are, but no more or less than heterosexuals are promiscuous. Both are unhealthy really. I have had no relationships since the death of my late partner. She was my soul mate and that is that, at least for me. What 'unnatural' results btw? What does this mean exactly? That sex is somewhat different? If so, what about heterosexuals with strange bedroom habits? S&M, fetishism, etc. Or you simply basing this on your aversion to something you don't understand at all?Promiscuity is unbiblical therefore spiritually unhealthy , that`s all I`m saying with reference to lesbianism .
My previous post was referring to the " unnatural " results of male gay lifestyle, Whether legalising same sex marriage means it`s acceptable to our Creator , I can`t see it being the case but it`s not my call to judge , I`m just debating on the forum topic.
Why would it have been eliminated? If its a natural occurring mutation, why would it have been eliminated? Your position seems very biased based on your own aversion to something you clearly don't understand.If there was a " gay gene " then with evolutionary change within the species , it would have eliminated itself, n`est pas ?
No it wouldn't since being gay in and of itself has no affect whatsoever on the overall survival rate of the individual, much less that of the species. And it's most likely a bunch of genes, not a single gene.If there was a " gay gene " then with evolutionary change within the species , it would have eliminated itself, n`est pas ?
Good point , and yes there is something God does not want control over and that is the will of man . That is sacrosanct in most senses and put there by God for us to freely love Him and freely follow Him by faith , or of course reject Him. However there is a judgement day when all will be exposed before Him. Although His primary motive for His creation is love , He cannot embrace sin .

You need to brush up on your sexual activity knowledge, mate.This is what I mean by " unnatural " and unhealthy. Anything sexual activity involving excrement is unhealthy.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) have been increasing among gay and bisexual men. Recent increases in syphilis cases have been documented across the country. In 2008, men who have sex with men (MSM) accounted for 63% of primary and secondary syphilis cases in the United States.
This is from 4 % of the population
