Christians(generally speaking) do not believe that homosexuality is wrong. They only believe that homosexual acts are wrong.

Ask a priest.

Most say it's wrong but there are some churches that accept it. It's very hard to get an "official christian stance" on anything, there are so many different factions that believe so many different things.

this is one of those topics that if you ask 3 christians ,you'll get 4 answers.

there are 3 main 'camps' or schools of thought on this one.

1)both homosexual acts and desires are ok if within the bounds of a firm relationship/"marriage"

2)both acts and desires are evil and wrong.

3)homosexual desires in themselves are not sinful but the act is.

It's fun baiting trolls. That a troll is a mod shows exactly where the idiots are. It's nice to see that the troll has such a small dick he has to threaten moderator action.

Poor troll. Don't worry, I'm sure the more you troll the bigger your dick will get.

Christians SHOULD see sin equally, since the Bible does not designate one sin as having greater importance over another, except for unbelief in God.

Since this is what the Bible teaches us, homosexuality shouldn't be any more persecuted than other sins.

You don't see a huge anti-liar league. Or Mothers Against Stealing.

I think people in general tend to attack those that they don't understand, and homosexuality is certainly too foreign for most Christians to grasp, fundamentally.

There are Christian support groups for those that want to get out of the homosexual lifestyle, and this proves that when educated, Christians aren't afraid.

Homosexuality is a sin, because it is a form of sexual immorality. So, it holds about as much weight as infidelity, pre-marital sex, and pedophilia. We shouldn't be singling homosexuals out, because all of us sin.

Lou: It's not that simple. Some christians believe that if you truly repent your sins, you will go to heaven. In that case, someone who is homosexual all their life, and then truly repents on their death bed, will go to heaven.

From a historical point of view (one that more christians seem to be taking than in the past) it could be said that it was personal homophobic and anti-roman views that were put down in the bible and not God's words. Since lesbianism could have been considered associated with divination, being that most oracles (like the famous oracle of delphi) were lesbian communites, and the roman soldiers had shunned but existent gay relationships.



DS: I agree (well about all sins being equal) however some anti-gay hate groups like to use, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10

" 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,"

To claim that being gay is one of the higher sins you can commit. We will of course ignore the rest of the chapter and bible, there is nothing to see there.

Anti-gay groups that use the Bible to support their cause are nothing more than a pack of Pharisees. If you remember, Jesus smote them verbally on MANY occasions.

That verse is talking about EVERYONE that is unrighteous, and everyone that doesn't have Jesus in their heart IS. You can be a Christian, be homosexual, and still be saved. You should not DESIRE to continue in your sin, but for homosexuals, their sin is a part of who they are. So much so that it would be ridiculous to ask them to just stop cold turkey. I am not saying that they shouldn't try to eventually.

I didn't claim homosexuality or ANY sexual immorality was a greater sin than any other. In fact, I said the exact opposite.

Im not sure how you can say that homosexuality is not a sin, and homosexual acts are. Homosexual acts are what qualifies on to be a homosexual.

my bad. strictly speaking its the romany word for a non gypsy (like 'goy'in yiddish) but used in brit english to mean a 'bloke' or 'geezer'('guy' in american, i guess)

sorry. as i have said elsewhere i don't get to speak much english during the day and when i come on totse i tend to revert to my 'au naturelle' southern brit style.
