I am investigating the origins of the translations. I am also absolutely certain that the drive to be GBLT is relentless and absolutely irrisistible.

I am also absolutely certain that the drive to be GBLT is relentless and absolutely irrisistible.

You cannot be a true christian and support homosexuality. Yes, Jesus preached about love and acceptance. However, he also condemned homosexuality. You cannot pick and choose what you think is true in the bible and what is not true according to your lifestyle. Because then you are ignoring God's word. You're being prideful, and if your a christian you know you should not be self-righteouss. For example, i lie, but i know its wrong because the bible says its wrong. God does not hate liars, nor does he hat homosexuals...he hates SIN. He hates homosexualty and lying. If your constantly commiting homosexuality, you are living in sin. There is a difference between living in sin and committing a sin. I just ask you to pray and sincerely ask Jesus for guidance. Put pride aside and humble yourself in front of the lord. I love you all. GOD BLESS YOU The devil can be very deceitful. You cannot be a true christian and support homosexuality. Yes, Jesus preached about love and acceptance.

First of all, being raised in a christian home then having a divorce & remariage to a very nonchristian home, I found myself in my early 20's about as far from God as possible. Then a girl came into my life and led me back into the "church atmosphere." While being with this girl for 5 years, I dedicated my life to finding out if God really existed or not, who He is and what He wants. So I don't write a novel here, I can say a few things with no uncertainty.1. Im gay. 2. God exists. 3. He wrote the Bible from genesis to revelation as our Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. 4. I would be fighting the battle for my soul against this body if I were black, brown, male, female, strait, gay, or anything in between. I'm fighting a spiritual battle and I suggest we all put some time into researching what we believe and more importantly why. What can we base our faith,"or lack therof,"on. If you want excuses not to believe, you'll find some. On the other hand if you want reasons to believe you won't believe what the Lord will show you. Jesus said"ask, and it shall be given you;seek and you shall find;knock and it shall be opened to you." Interesting conversation, I think I might have to get in this one.

It shouldn't matter a bit to anyone else what you like. Alas, there are public policy implications of personal matters (equal rights, etc.), so these issues need to be discussed in as open and non-ideological a way as possible. James,

All my life Ive been told it's wrong and for most of my life I have tried to hide me sexual identity and supress the urge. I have felt shunned and hated when one of my friends found out I was gay he abandoned me. Believe me being gay has caused me alot of problems I am also a devout christian and because of this during my high school years I hated myself for being gay and not being able to turn straight. So I ask you who choses to do this to themselves? I would just like to say that I am 19 and gay.
