Ok, this is interesting…..
Yes I do believe in original sin. And you can’t compare gay marriage to straight…..God made man and woman for each other – His original plan. Some people interpret the Bible as saying that sex is only for procreation….I do not agree. If you are married sex is fifun or procreation. Homosexuality is a sin, and the feeling of a man towards a man or woman – woman is not (please do not kill me here – can’t put it exactly right) what God wants. Now mind you I am talking about GAY SEX, NOT the people involved. As for just why they have these feelings, that’s a subject I am not familiar or comfortable with.
HOW did this thread get on this slant – thought it was about politics?
Oh and Jonny, I am sorry if I made you so upset that you felt the need to scream at me like that. That was not my intent – truly. Can we debate withpout name calling and abuse?? Because if it has to come down to that, I decline. That was never my intent.:love:
Well you are right, the human species as an organism is designed to reproduce through straight sex to further the species.
I believe In evolution and the basic science of life (Although I dont rule out the unknown…). To me life started as some tiny cell that reprodroduced Asexually. As the being become more complex in its design, through evolution we eventually came to be as we are now. Due to the complexity of our make up, it’s not suprising that sometimes come out different than our parent genes intended. For example, different gender preferences towards sexual desire.
However, all this comes down to, is tiny chemical reactions and electrical signals in the brain. All it means, is that somewhere during the growth of the person in the womb (MAYBE even during life) the chemicals given and the signals sent, differ on such a tiny level, yet changes something so “significant”.
Now, before you can judge that that person’s feelings are wrong, you have to ask yourself a few questions…
1. Are we still that basic that we base the usefulness of life on whether they can make more of us?
2. Is It a choice?
3. Would you judge someone who has dyslexia, or is not so good at maths?
That’s all It Is. So Considering the only difference shagging the opposite sex is making new babies, then I think you maybe need to look at other aspects of life and see the other 10billion ways they can aid the planet and man kind.
If God can’t understand the basic principles of human design, the how could he have created us? I think we are beyond the point of where thoughts and dreams and just “something” that happens in our head depending on the weather and if the crows flew past 3 times that day. Basic science.
This is what I don’t get about some aspects of religion. I mean, sure, I definitely admit there are so many unexplainable things out there. Including the existence of ourselves. However, I see religion mainly as an explanation for the unknown. I dont deny there could be something, doing so would be ignorant. But why follow one religion as if it were truth too, surely just as ignorant as dismaying the whole idea?
Keeping an open mind about everything Is the way to go. Not being open to new things, and being able to admit things you used to believe are wrong, is where the human society fails. If more people would have listened when one mad said the world was round, maybe they could have proved It sooner. Its all about developing your own Ideas, based on what you learn DAILY.
The fail of mankind is thinking we know It all, and not accepting our lack of knowledge long enough to learn something new.
