Homosexuality in the View of a Christian

[Tycoon]

I do not think homosexuality is accepted. Homosexuality is tolarated. There are some families that follow that concept and/or approach you express.

I'm not saying homosexuality is accepted. I'm saying it should be.

Homosexuals are not treated the way we deserve. Did you know that 26% of teenagers who come out to their parents are immediately thrown out of the house?

No anmon. Like science.

And this is very off topic. Homosexuality and the Bible.

Anmon, do you play rugby?

Bible code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is pretty scientific.
A lot of people hate the Jews, I think its because they are an incredibly smart race of people.
Possibly the most intelligent human beings on the planet.

Way to ignore my qualitative statement .

one, you could do the same with a Charles Dickens book. Two, Chinese people have been proven to be smarter :p (in general). Three, do you play rugby?

[Anmon]

1. So I've heard.
2. On average but? Have you seen how many Jews have won Nobel awards?
3. I played Rugby League, a mans game.

[tommy5x]

A game played by men, involving grabbing at each other and rolling in mud? Quite homoerotic I'd guess?

You need to reassess your social interpretations.

Quote by: anmon 3. I played Rugby League, a mans game.

Also banned by the bible. Touching the skin of a pig is unclean and is a sin (Leviticus 11:7).

So you aren't allowed to play rugby or even eat pork.

Can't work on Sunday, can sell your daughter into slavery, Can't plant crops side by side, and you can't wear cloths made from two different threads. I'm going to guess you've broken one of the above laws a couple of times so even you probably don't follow all the rules of the Bible or know all of them.

So why is homosexuality special?

Quote by: Rainbow You think that I need to address the core for a child upbringing processs, (along with its outcomes) since some guys may or may not be familiar with it ??? Is that really so hard to understand that parents and/or guardians play the fundamental role in creating positive values in child's mind ? and by that activity they shape that child ???

Peer pressure and siblings can come into play a whole lot. In todays world kids are being reared by strangers a whole lot, too, this could make a difference, but still if you're born that way it wouldn't.

Then they don't have very good parents. Seems like that would be illegal unless they were 18. Probably another unenforceable law.

Don't you figure that the heat of the game would kinda turn off the erotic for most people. The mind would be concentrating on the game.

Quote by: Winter wind No it isn't rainbow. I, personally, was simply questioning why you think homosexuality will be detrimental to this process.

A lone parent and/or guardian faces less chances to upbring a child properly and/or successfully, in comparison to a couple of 2 opposite genders.
I do not state that it is impossible and/or unaccepted, etc. , but it is much harder for a lone parent and/or guardian to accomplish that task, while a couple of 2 opposite genders is the most suitable requirement and/or element for that process.
That is why a couple of 2 opposite genders is a factor.

#1
It is going to last as long as values within communities, societies, groups, etc. remain intact.

#2
Parents and/or guardians neglect a process of upbringing child, then parents and/or guardians should be held accountable for outcomes.

What do you mean by : "homosexuals are not treated the way we deserve" ?

I have read your reply, and your argument works well if you ignore "discernable negative effect on society," which was the qualitative basis of my argument.

I agree. However, why can't a couple of the same gender do just as well?

Communities, societies, groups cultivate and/or promote and/or endorse, etc. certain values. An individual faces a risk of being rejected and/or condamned if she/he does not follow and/or obey those values.
This is why that individual is being perceived by communities, societies, groups, etc. as an element that carries negative values (in comparison).
