My religious opinions on homosexuality

People love my theology, so I give 'em more.

Published on April 10, 2008 By erathoniel In Religion

Welcome to yet another political rant. People like 'em more than my other ones. Or maybe they get featured more. Dunno.

I'm gonna touch a hot topic of religion and homosexuality. Yeah. Most people can click the red X or whatever at the top right or left of their browser now. You probably won't like what I have to say.

I believe that homosexuality is wrong. God designed sex for totally different purposes than pure pleasure. Homosexuality is a perversion, though I do not believe that there is anything wrong with homosexual people, I do blieve that it is wrong, mind you. My policy on this matter is "Love the sinner and not the sin". You can ask me: "Where in the Bible do you get this?". I don't know the exact reference, but I'm pretty sure it's in Corinthians somewhere, and maybe other places. Basically, there are multiple reasons, medical and spiritual why God forbids homosexuality.

I'm not gonna put any links on the subject, but there are multiple problems with these things, both secularly and religiously.

What I mean by obscene is: Children use the internet. There is an extent in what can be said until I have to mark this article as adult or delete some comments. This is my article, and if you wish to discuss the intricate details of homosexuality and how to do it, make your own article.

What's strange is that you seem to have missed the humorous response I made to the "totally gay" comment.

I do believe in the truth. It's a book I read often.

Edit: Oh, and when you make that article, flag it as adult, would ya?

Without fear of contradiction I can state that "Love the sinner, hate the sin" is not anywhere in the Holy Bible.

It comes from of all places a poem entitled, "What a Word May Do" written by Thomas Buchanan Read, 1822-1872. I hate the sin, but love the sinner is in the first stanza.

Wow, and that you did! Thanks for an insightful probe into an often sensitive and inflammed area.

I...nevermind. I'm not going to do anything but just laugh my behind off on this pun. Have a cookie, you made me chuckle.

And E, I disagree with you. That's all I'm going to say on the topic.

AUGHH!! Darn it!

If I'm correct, doesn't Corinthians talk about being with the sinners? The exact quote not really, but it's a catchy phrase.

Most likely 1 Corinthians chapter 6 is what you are thinking of. St.Paul teaches which sins which will keep us from our inheritance of Heaven...and the second part concerns respect for our body.

Maybe I'm off on my references. I can't be sure.

Ironically, unlike our Ockie, the real Occam's Razor would mandate against homosexuality. The parts don't fit, as I and others have mentioned before.
